Day 3 of Creativity

Day3: What words or phrases do you find inspiring and why?

I really like the phrase " You shouldn't be doing that" especially now that I have had a major heart attack. The reason I respond to this phrase is because it encourages me to continue my life the way it was before the heart attack just maybe a little slower. I do not want people feeling sorry for me and I will not let my medical condition hold me back.

I may not be the same as I was before, but I am alive and plan to live my life to the fullest.

What colors are meaningful to you and why?

I like the colours Black, Yellow and Red.

Black because it is slimming and always looks elegant.
Yellow makes me feel good and energized. I can only wear certain colours of yellow. Sunflower yellow if my best choice.
Red because it makes me feel empowered. I feel that I can accomplish anything when I wear red.

Funny even tho I like these colours for clothing I don't often use them in my card making.

30 Days of Creativity

I seem to have lost my creativity mojo. I do not have any creative ideas left in my head and I am behind on my swaps. I decide to jump start my brain again by taking part in 30 days to Creativity.

Day 1: When you were a child, how did you express your creativity?

I liked to sew and knit. Right now I am knitting a scarf for a friend at work. When I was in high school, I used to knit for the teachers for spending money.

My sewing machine is not working at the present time. I was having trouble with my pressure foot and decided to take it apart to see if I could fix the problem. I couldn't, and now I have to take it to a repair shop.
