Creativity Initiative #4 || Link-Up

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I don't think I have been this excited for a Thanksgiving in a long time. For the first time in a couple years, my whole family is together for Thanksgiving. My brother, his fiancé and her sister are in town and the house is full again. Its the best. So this quote pretty much sums it up for me. Today I am excited (and grateful) about everything. Yep.

So, next weeks prompt is Dreams. Whether that means that dreams you had last night or the dreams you have for the future. Its up to you!

I hope you you all have a great Thanksgiving! Eat A LOT of turkey!

Creative Initiative Link-Up || #3

Its week three of the creative initiative! This weeks prompt was nature, my favorite! So, if you created anything this week inspired by nature, be sure to link up below! And if you haven't, thats alright! You can link up anytime this week! Go create something!

I embroidered this deciduous tree, with the colorful fallen leaves. Describes the season right now so well. Almost all the pretty yellow, orange and red leaves have fallen and we are left with bare trees. This morning I woke up to frost and the brightest sun you will ever see. This weather makes the mountains in distance look gorgeous! One day I will have to document that. Seriously, I love where I live.

Now we all know that next week is Thanksgiving here in the states. So with that coming holiday, next weeks prompt will be Gratitude. What are you thankful for? Draw, sculpt or embroider it. Then come back next week, link up and check out what others are thankful for. Have fun!

Creative Initiative Week 2 || Link Up

It's week #2 of the creative initiative we started last week! This weeks prompt was "draw (or create) something that you did today". Im into making scarfs lately, so that is what I decided to embroider! And, quite honestly, I didn't do anything too exciting…

So, you want to know the prompt for next week? With the leaves falling fast and before everything gets bare, we wanted to capture the pretty colors of nature while we still can! So get outside and create what you see! I am the most inspired by nature, this week is going to be fun!

The Rules

1. Create something based on this weeks prompt, Nature. 

2. Blog about your creation and link it with this post.

3. Comment on others posts! Nature is such a broad prompt, it will be fun to see what others come up with!

Have Fun!

The Creative Link Up

I am teaming up with Lena of This Lovely Little Day and some other wonderful bloggers to bring you a new link up that revolves around creativity and art! I am not very artistic, I can't draw for the life of me, but I can put some thread in some fabric. So instead of a canvas or notebook, my art will be in the form of embroidery. But who knows, you might see something else from me as the time goes on.

Each week there will be a new prompt that you can do whatever you want with. Paint, draw, sculpt, thread… whatever it is you do, do it. This week was just expressing creativity. Yeah, mine might not be very creative but Im going for the more simple approach to this. Sometimes I tend to just keep adding things, because I think it needs more. Not this time. I have got to tell myself to stop. Sometimes less is more. The arrow represents moving forward with this new adventure.

So with that, you can link up this week with an art project that represents creativity. Next week the prompt is "Something you did today". Create something this week that represents that and I will see you here next Thursday, so you can link up and see what other people created! Have fun!
