Hey...I want to share another freebie I made....

Just think of your goals...anything you want to work on this year...whether it is personal or professional.  
Brainstorm on a scrap of paper.  
Then when you are sure of what your resolutions are...grab a nice black marker or pen and write your resolutions done nicely on this worksheet.

Hang it in your office, kitchen or anywhere you will see this.
You may even want to brainstorm on each idea...think of how you will make each goal happen!

Learning something new!

Boy ...is it hard to learn something new....but it is sooo worth it.
Right now I am learning adobe illustrator.....it is all pretty new to me...complicated ...and yet I am very thankful I know a lot about computers.
I made the pattern above....just to practice.
This is called a repeating pattern....designs used for fabric design and all kinds of other surfaces.

This is a poor shot...just a screen shot I blew up.
I just wanted to show you what I am working on.
The colors are better than this.

When you are working on designs....it is like working on a work table...stuff everywhere.

I learned a lot from Bonnie Christines classes on Creativelive plus in the roost tribe membership she has videos.

I checked to see if my design would fit in any shape...it does!

This is a watercolor painting I did...I took the colors from it to make a color palette for my skull balloon design. 
There is so much that goes into this....very complex.
Having a blast though!!!
Changing colors is the easiest thing...so fun too.

Love the different color combos
Purples...love that color!
So much fun!
