Summer of Color Pink Green - Index

This week our SOC Challenge was pink and green. My favorites! I saw someone else on the group did Index Card and I thought that would be nice to add to that challenge.Here is my adorable little submission for this week.

I use a little Croquis I made some time ago for my female template and then draw my designs from there. This turned out so cute I might just have to make this one!! :)

Summer of Color 2014 - Coral & Teal with a Smudge, Splash or Pop of Bright White

Week Two of Summer of Color 4 is with MORE colors I just adore!!

Coral & Teal 
with a Smudge, Splash or Pop of Bright White

I have been wanting to make a poster for my Core Desired Feelings for Danielle La Porte's The Desire Map and  decided this proved to be a good representation of what I wanted to do for colors. They are cheery but not overpowering. I think it still allows all the sentiments to come through on their own and yet still give it an artistic flair.



Hope you enjoyed these as much as I enjoy making and creating them.

Follow your desires and live for your intentions and no matter what,
Be YOU and Be Fabulous!!

Summer of Color- 2014 SOC4

Well, we are at it again. I am taking each prompt as they come. Not assigning any ONE element to my designs. Not aprons or people or anything. Just whatever moves me with the prompt.

With this prompt I decided to do something digital.


Week one was Yellow, Aqua and a Pop of Pink.

This one was made for Miss Trixie! :)

Summer of Color: Citron Turq Apron

So of course I am doing Summer of  Color  with Twinkle, Twinkle Like a Star Blogspot again!
https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh0nVymzYBqLdJZhqQQMT4fARwf-m-o5CMW3rmLWpGHja0XpJTHHi-k7qTrzteTtKj8nea0FqHsVvehwPP38A-MtCHS1NBw2HxcSoPGZzNGjArUa9f3Wam-H_fQQRsF_iBtGXXHWiABx0/s1600/twinkletwinkleheader4.jpg
I love this gal and I take every chance I can to unleash the artist in me to follow her color schemes and show my creativity.

Since of course I am doing more aprons now, I thought this year, in a different art form I would try, TRY being the key word there to do some Aprons and other things I make in the SOC3 colors she gives us.

This week we have Citron Green and Turquoise.

What a Challenge.

But I found a fabulous old skirt at the DAV and rePurposed it into an Apron!

I don't also do pockets in my aprons because sometimes I like to leave them in that dressy skirty style. To me, Aprons are a Fashion Accesory. You should eb able to wear it from

 Kitchen to Couture or
however
and 
whenever
and
wherever
you like

Values Cards

I wanted to take something ordinary and make it Extraordinary! Isn't it funny though how that word is just Extra Ordinary put together? Anyway, I wanted to make it better than that! I was reading in the Right Brain Business Plan about creating Values Cards and I remember I had these tiny little cards that I never play with or do anything with. I got the ideas for the Values from the book Working for Good. Between the two I think I came up with a really unique idea and something creative as well!

So I thought maybe I could cover them and make my values cards out of them. Then I thought if I punched a hole in them and got some key rings to put it on that might make it even cuter and more special! So that is just what I did! I mod podged the covers onto the cards. I cut out the sayings and was trying to glue them down and a friend was texting me and teasing me about mod podge. I wasn't going to use mod podge but it wasn't working gluing the strips down so in the end I used mod podge after all. I guess Mod Podge does rock! :)











These are a list of the values I believe in and cherish for Heroes for the Homeless. I came to these by going through the “Right Brain Business Plan” and also the book “Working for Good”. I decided to do 30 for 30 because there usually 30 days in a month. I added a 31st which is my final reminder to remember to keep leaping. I think when we stop leaping and we get afraid. I put these on a key ring and carry them with me so I remember to always look at them and least one every single day!
