The Daily Create Assignment for Saturday 2-28-2015 was to take a photo of a unique #Heelconcept  by elevating your foot on an everyday object as a heel. I used the slate in front of the fireplace at the condo at Wintergreen to elevate my heel!

The Daily Create Assignment for Wednesday 2-25-2015 was to Select 5 emojis and use them as a prompt for a unique story. Screenshot your emojis and add link to your story below. If you are on Twitter then you can emojinate in one click! I used the emojinate website to create an emoji story. The website randomly selected emojis […]

The third daily create I chose for the week was to edit/ create an action movie poster using only teal blue and orange hues.  I thought this sounded cool, which is why I chose to participate.  First I looked up action movie posters and I was shocked to see how many of them actually already … Read More

This week was super laid back and relaxed compared to the previous weeks, but I am also not at all complaining about it. I started the week by commenting on 10 posts from people in the course. I really do like this assignment because it allows you to see what other people do and how … Continue reading Taking On Week 7.. →

For today’s daily create we had to make a video of things that scare us. Song: Well, Bad Blood by Taylor Swift, I feel like it works perfectly because I truly have “bad blood” with these things. Snakes: I have the biggest fear of snakes and them just showing up somewhere, even though I’ve never … Continue reading Bad Blood →

  So the Daily Create was to take an image and make it teal and orange for an action shot. I made this dog a super hero because it made  sense with the action scene. And the way he’s holding the dog.

  The Daily Create was to take a picture of your foot on something. I thought immediately about putting my foot on someones head. It reminded me of someone conquering their foe, which is funny because I’m like 5”2′ and weigh 110Ib soaking wet, and the person in this picture is 6”2′ Ibs. So yeah, irony.

  Needles absolutely terrify me. I’ve never donated blood, and whenever they need to draw blood for testing, my stomach drops, my heart races, I start seeing stars and black spots and I practically hyperventilate. I’ll be watching, say Dexter for example. I bury My head in my boyfriends shoulder when he’s putting the needle … Continue reading Heart Racing… →

The daily create was to create a heel with a everyday object. Due to the fact that I am obsessed with my dog, I used her bone because it was next to me at the time and it wasn’t a abnormal amount of heel. I struggle with the whole heel arch part that comes with … Continue reading Heels 4 Dayz →
