Day what?

So I totally fell off the wagon on the 30 days of creativity. In my defense I really had no idea I would find a place on Sunday and be moved in a week later... so its been a little crazy. There was so much I needed to do this weekend and I decided to take a break and make something. So I choose these turtle cookies.  I call them "Amanda's Love Turtle Cookies" How is that for creative. Sadly they look better then they taste... they taste like shortbread... a blah shortbread :) Oh well... They still look cute.

Day 4,5, and 6!

Ok so I am being lame and combing day 4,5,6 for multiple reasons. So here are my excuses...
1) I try to avoid my computer on the weekends... we spend to much together during the week.
2) I am finally moving out of my parents basement !!! As sad as I am to not have free rent and some good down home cookin I'm super pumped to have my own place again. One misses such freedoms of being able to leave dirty laundry around in peace.
So yes I am being a slight lazy ass and combing all 3 days into one crude little drawing. All this week will probably be this way seeing I forgot how much crap I have collected over the last year that I don't really need. :) Plus I have to do some serious decorating YEA!!!!

Day 3 Chrome?

Ummm.... what? Chrome? When I think of chrome I think of that terrible Montgomery Gentry song and I also think of every ex boyfriend I have adding chrome to their trucks. So I have some awesome inspiration to to work with!  Since its Friday and my brain is already on the weekend I did the most cliche thing with chrome and made a car pattern instead :) Hope everybody has a great weekend!!!!

Happy Friday!

Day 2 Ice Cream....

Day 2 of my 30 days of Creativity is here and the inspiration today is ice cream! At first I made a paper sculpture of a banana split and let me tell you it didn't look like a banana split. Lets just say it looked inappropriate... so that was scrapped. OH and a word of wisdom to those who are involved with the creativity month, let me just warn you, glitter is the herpes of art supplies. Meaning that if you get that stuff on you its not coming off... so be careful. Last night I looked like I just left  a very sparkly strip club.

Anywho back to Ice Cream. I love textures/textiles so I decided to make an ice cream display of different textures around my house. I even created the flavors!  So enjoy... I'm off to try and get some more glitter out of my hair and to track down the ice cream man.

Day 1! Bikes!

Day 1 of 30 days of creativity is here and bicycles was the inspiration for the day. So I busted out the crayons, markers and some water colors. For some reason I have a ton of crayons. I feel like every birthday and christmas somebody gets me crayons.  I really have no idea why? Random FYI.
 So I did two drawings. The first is my crayon drawing. The second is an illustration on how to assemble a bike. Right now Cody is fixing up my bike so it is literally in pieces. Enjoy day 1! Happy June as well!
