October 27th, 2013, Comments (6)

This weekly check-in post is a place for Creative Every Day Challenge participants to share their creative activities. This check-in runs through the 31st. Starting November 1st, there will be a daily check-in for Art Every Day Month (AEDM). 

Join in the Challenge: You can sign-up for the 2013 Challenge here!

Ways to share: Once you've signed up, you can leave a comment on this post and/or use the "Mr. Linky" widget below to link to a blog post(s) about your creative activities during the days of 10/28/13 - 10/31/13. 

The widget below is an optional method of sharing your creativity that makes it easier for others to check out what you're up to. You can use it to link to a blog post (or posts) or flickr image during the week listed. Or if you have a bunch of posts and don't want to link to all of them, you can link to your main blog page once. Do it in a way that makes sense and is fun for you! If you're unsure about how to use the widget, check out the "How to use the Mr. Linky widget" section on the Creative Every Day Challenge page. (If you're reading this in a RSS reader or email subscription, you will not see the "Mr. Linky widget", so click on over to the blog to use it.) If the Mr. Linky widget is missing from this blog post, it's probably a problem with their server and it will come back as soon as it's fixed. You can always leave your link in the comments. There is sometimes a slight delay in your link/image showing up in the Mr. Linky widget, so if you don't see it immediately, check back in a little bit.

You can also take advantage of the great CED flickr group to post your images and see what others are up to. If you're on Twitter or Instagram you can use the hashtag #CED2013!

Theme: October's totally optional theme is Healing, which you read more about here. Next month's theme will be Art Every Day Month, which you read about here

Happy Creating!

Creative Every Day Theme for September 2013: Rhythm

September 1st, 2013, Comments (0)

I apologize for the delay in posting September's theme! I was sick all week and didn't have a chance. This month's theme seems to flow right from last month's theme of cycles. I hope you enjoy it! At the end of each month I will announce the totally optional theme for the following month. For the month of September 2013, the theme will be Rhythm.

As always, this month's theme for the Creative Every Day Challenge is totally optional. Use it if it inspires you, continue being creative every day in your own way if it doesn't, or do something in between. You can sign up for the 2013 Creative Every Day Challenge anytime. More info can be found here and the sign-up page is here.

I'll be posting about the theme throughout the month on the blog to help keep you inspired. You can use the posts here for jumping off points or interpret the theme in your own creative way. If you need some suggestions, here are a few ideas to get you started. You could:

  • *Explore the idea of rhythm in a piece of art.  
  • *Create to your favorite music.   
  • *Make music. If you play an instrument, take it out and play. If you don't create rhythms with what you have, join a drum circle, make music with a child.   
  • *Pay attention to the rhythm of your days, write about it.    
  • *Include sheet music in collages.   
  • *Notice rhythms in Nature and let it inspire your work.   

How to use the CED themes:

If you're feeling creatively stuck or blocked at any point during the month, use the theme as a source of inspiration to get you moving. Feel free to focus on the theme in your creative activities for the entire month or as much as you'd like.

Using the theme is entirely optional for CED participants. Use it if it inspires you, ignore it if it doesn't. I'll be sharing posts throughout the month around the theme (among other things) to get you thinking about how to incorporate it into your life. I'd love to hear how you use the theme in your creative world.

And have fun with it!
