100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 64-70)

We are moving along. We are almost done with 100 Days!!!! So Happy. I will apologize for the next two weeks, I travelled home to St. Louis for Christmas/New Years and some days are not too creative, but some are still really cool. Anyway, Day 64 I posted a latergram..... because we were driving literally ALL DAY! and I forgot my yarn at home. This is another page from my December Bullet journal. #DAY64 Day 65 was a little better, and might I add wildly "creative". I used the packet of paper from our hotel (we had a wedding this weekend) to jot down a little doodle, and to encourage people to use whatever is around you. Creativity is everywhere. #DAY65 #DAY66 I was finally home. My mom told me to draw some stockings..... Not my best work, but it's cute if you ignore the minor mistakes.... Day 67, We celebrated Christmas with my husband's family!! I was given these adorable photobooth stencils. I put them together and it was super fun. #DAY67 ...

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 57-63)

I told you guys, I am really behind. Let's power through. Day 57, I got new markers. I bought some brush markers. They smear a lot.... and it is way harder to make smooth and perfect, but it's the REAL way. I will learn, just wait. #DAY57 If you haven't figured out yet, I am OBSESSED WITH CHRISTMAS! Here is my #DAY58 where I also used Brush pens, still not my favorite, but I CAN DO IT Day 59 I was challenged to write a friends name very wide.... Weird request, I know. Anyway, I couldn't. It was actually quite a challenge to write his name even remotely well. Anyway, here is my failed #DAY59 Onto Day 60, I felt like my letters weren't looking too hot. So, I went back to basics and wrote out an alphabet. #DAY60 Now, Day 61. This one is pretty self explanatory, MERRY CHRISTMAS! But it wasn't Christmas. #DAY61 Then Day 62, I did some more chalkboard art. This has to be my absolute favorite media!! #DAY62 Finally,...

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 50-56)

I am super behind on these.... again. So, I am going to make these short. Just a brief explanation of what I made and why. Thanks for being understanding. Day 50 is when I wrapped all my Christmas presents. I was very proud of my tags and thought I'd share them with the world. Make your presents pretty, people appreciate it and think you're cool... #DAY50 #HALFWAY Now Day 51, I wrote out my December Calendar in my bullet journal!! Love that thing. Here is #DAY51 Now, Day 52. I know... this is super boring right now. But, I messed around on PROCREATE on my Ipad. I made a potential Christmas card. But then I decided not to send any out. #regrets Here is my #DAY52 On to Day 53, I made a delicious roast beef sandwich. It is so easy and so GOOD!!!Literally just good bread, onions, roast beef and provolone. Then broil that baby!  #DAY53 Then, Day 54 I mixed up the handwriting and wrote out HARRY POTTER!! It turned out pretty good. My markers bled ...

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 43-49)

Next up, we have Day 43, the first day of the week. I made an ADVENT BEER CALENDAR. Where we will drink a beer everyday in December. And I bought all new kinds of beers. I have only had three of them before, SO EXCITED!! This is #DAY43 On Day 44 I made a casual lunch because my husband was working from home. Chicken Caprese! So easy and it looks super fancy. #DAY44 For Day 45 we set up our tree. We live in a small apartment right now, so our tree is super small, but it always reminds me of home and how much I love Christmas. Plus we hung our stockings from this table, and it turned out super cute. Here is #DAY45 Day 46 I wanted to make a fancy dessert. I have been watching too many baking shows. Anyway, my suggestion is to never be fancy with desserts again. Just make brownies or cookies.... that's all anyone wants in life. Anyway, I made whoopie pies!!! They are great and delicious, but very rich. They have chocolate whoopie pies (not my fav, but very good) a...

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 36-42)

On to the next week! Day 36. My husband and I went to his cousins' house for Thanksgiving and we brought an appetizer. It's a very pretty app. It's called SEVEN LAYER MEXICAN DIP, but I don't like olives- so it's only 6 layers. 1. refried beans 2. guacamole 3. mayo/sour cream/taco seasoning 4. shredded cheese 5. tomatoes 6. green onions Check it out in my #DAY36 You guys, I am getting very uncreative. But at least everyday is different. I love this Game of Thrones quote from Tyrion, and I love these wine glass markers I got from my brother last Christmas. So, I wrote it on my wine glass for the night. Here is #DAY37 Today I decided to mix up my hand lettering on Day 38. I usually stick to brush lettering and or cursive, but today I wanted to show more of what I can do. Block lettering with shading. Hope you like it, this is #DAY38 For Day 39 I decided to exploit my husband.... HAHA!! just kidding- I was practicing taking pictures. I sti...
