Being Creative
Articles, Places, People, and Things that can help us be creative.
Christmas - Creative kitchen gifts - edibles  Christmas is a great motivator (and good reason) to get creative, especially if finances are a little tight. Gifts and cards that have been made with thought and care are worth so much more than something bought from stacks of items all the same in a department store. Christmas - Creative kitchen gifts – drinkables  Continuing this series of articles that celebrate creativity for Christmas, this article concentrates on giving gifts that are drinkable, rather than edible. These are great gifts, especially in these financially precarious times, and show the recipient that you’ve given thought on his/her behalf. Christmas – Savory food gifts – readers’ faves  Since the first article went online I’ve received several emails from readers telling me of their favourite gift edibles and drinkables. Thank you very much! I’m passing some of them along to the rest of Creativity’s readers. Christmas – Sweet food gifts – readers’ faves  More readers’ favorite food gifts including the best ever chocolate sauce for ice cream, caramelized nuts, truffles and brownie treats. At this rate, I’m going to eat way more than I give out. (Purely in the interests of trying them out for my readers, you understand…). Creating While You Sleep  A third of our lives are spent sleeping and during this state we can ride the ocean wave of creativity through dreams and even nightmares. Creative procrastination  Procrastination is generally considered a bad thing and we feel guilty about it if we catch ourselves putting something off. However, sometimes it’s a good thing and we can actively use it to boost our creativity. We can also make our procrastination more creative so that it works for us. Creative Shopping the Consignment Way  Consignment shopping is an off the beaten path way of finding one-of-a-kind treasures that you normally can´t find in modern department stores. Creative Smiling for World Peace  Creativity is about living life creatively in ALL ways. This means it’s not just about creating physical objects; it’s also about creating non-physical things, like world peace. Creative worrying  We can use our innate sense of creativity to make worrying work for us – that is, if we’re going to worry anyway, we might as well do it creatively. Creativity and a light heart  Is creativity available to you? Yes, it is. It´s in us and around us. Grab it!

Everyday Creativity  A lot of people believe that creativity is a ‘gift’ that has been given to a select few. This is not true. Everyone has creativity within them, but not everyone taps this source of life-enrichment. Greeting Card Universe - creativity outlet  We are all different in the way our creativity needs to be expressed - some of us are happy with the 'doing' of it, some with the end result of itself, some need to make things to give, and some need to make things to sell. GCU is an outlet for your creativity which covers all these needs.

Halloween – make an ATC or ACEO  How to make an ATC or ACEO (art card) for Halloween which you can add to your collection of artist cards or give to someone else for theirs.

Photography  Bella Photography Site Respect your creativity  You need to respect your own creativity in order for other people to respect it too. Time to create  It’s that time of year again – when we start to think of all the things we would like to make, like cards and gifts and costumes and house and table décor items for the various occasions that arise between now and the New Year. How do we find the time? We need to be creative  Without creativity, humans wouldn’t have survived at all. That is, we need to create just as much as we need to eat and drink. What is Creativity?  Did you reach for a dictionary? Type the word into Google? I almost did, but we don’t have to look. We know what it is. We are the very essence of creativity – it’s a human thing!
