What are YOU going to make today?

I think this is done, unless I decide to go back in and do something else, but it kind of told me I was done!

Today is Day 2 of my challenge, so with that in mind I want to encourage you to do some shading.

I tend to NOT do it as heavily as I maybe could and I find that when I do, I'm ALWAYS happy with the result. So that's my mini art prompt for you today.

If you need more info on the challenge you can find the details HERE and more about the prizes HERE. 

Shade something, or use shading or hey, do whatever outside in the shade. :)

I look forward to seeing what everyone accomplishes here!

Kelly's 30 day creative challenge starts TODAY! Day 1

Ok, Today is the first day.

If you want to hear more about prizes, etc, please take a peek here

Otherwise, it's pretty easy.
I will post an art prompt each day but you do NOT have to use that.

• Complete something EVERY day (or as many days as you can)
• It doesn't have to be big or intricate... draw, paint, sketch, knit, doodle, play with chalk.. whatever you want or like to do that makes you feel creative! An amazing meal counts too! Mmmm food porn! LOL
• Try and link daily, if not then no later than Sunday night to count.
• Please link directly to what you want me to see otherwise I might miss it, in the Mr Linkey thingey and then leave a comment so I'm sure to see it.
• Tell your friends!
• Come back on July 1st and I'll list the winners.
• One prize for the person who completes the most days 
• One prize which will be chosen randomly. Get an entry for each day you participate.

Day 1- Consider using a theme from nature! 

Here is my offering for you. (As you can see, far from perfect, but something I really enjoyed doing!)

AND go. 

Don't forget to leave me a comment after linking!

And I shall call her....Zoey! (And the official challenge details!)

I am really excited about the way this turned out. I am a huge fan of giraffes and when I saw this I instantly knew I wanted to make it patchwork. This one took me a while, but I only started it last night so it wasn't too bad!
I used my watercolor pencils to add some color, which I don't normally do...but they were perfect for this and just really had some fun with it.
My daughter and I decided it's a girl, and my son decided her name is Zoey!

Isn't she cute?! (I wish she was an actual stuffed animal!)

Ok! And now onto the next piece, my

Kelly's 30 day "Kreative" Challenge!

It starts tomorrow and runs from June 1- June 30.

I challenge you, to be creative every day for the next 30 days.

I am pushing myself this year to really make sure that I am doing something EVERY day, no matter how small and I want to see how many of you will join me!

I am hoping to have one of those cool Mr. Linkey things up and running by tomorrow but I'm struggling with it a little, so until I do, please just leave your links in the comments. 

There are only a few rules and that's to keep it simple.

Complete something every day, or as many days during the challenge as you can. 

It doesn't have to be big, or intricate. Just draw or paint, or sketch or knit or doodle or whatever it is you want to do that makes you feel creative! 

Try and link them daily, if not, then no later than Sunday night of each week and note what day it's for in your title or somewhere in your blog post or link.

Please link directly to what you want me to see, otherwise I might miss it.

Tell your friends!

There are going to be TWO prizes.

One for the person who completes the most days... and then one will be drawn randomly from the people who entered, each project is good for one entry. 

So now that I said that... what am I giving away? 

I thought I'd give away a set of my favorite micons in winners choice of black or multicolor 

and I've also decided to give away a wooden spiral art drawing set like mine, because it's gorgeous and I love it so much. 

 

So don't forget... and I hope to see you back here tomorrow for day 1!
