Feeling a Little Uptight Lately?
I sure have been! That’s why I started doodling again (sounds rather dubious, doesn’t it?).
I used to draw fantasy pictures when I was younger (in my teens) to relieve anxiety or tension and it really worked. I found myself reverting back to it again this week and it really helped me to unwind.
I know this might be a strange blog for me (or maybe not? Can’t seem to figure out who I am anymore anyway…lol) but I thought maybe you will appreciate it. I finished creating this ‘fairy garden’ picture (see below) last night and I wanted to get you and/or your children/spouse/best friend/neighbour/dog/cat/hamster to join in with printing it out and colouring it in!
Go on! Let’s have some fun, for Pete’s sake (Pete could really use a bit of shits and giggles right now).
Dust Off Your Pencil Crayons, Khoki’s and Paints!
So, your homework (or colour therapy work) is to print this out and splash your unique version of hue onto it (scroll to the bottom to see some of the finished pictures I’ve received from y’all).
Then, I would love you to e-mail me the finished version (cheriedirksen@yahoo.com) and I will put them all together in a blog for the whole wide world to see (you can remain anonymous or let the globe know who the genius is behind the crayons!).
Get In-Touch With the Inner Sense (Innocence) of the Inner Child!
Is this a glorified colouring-in blog?
YES!!! It damn well is and you’re going to have so much fun doing it :)…so without anymore procrastination, here it is (just click on the picture to take you to the bigger version and then ‘save as’ and ‘print’):
Have oodles of fun (because that’s the point and don’t lose sight of it!) and I will publish the finished results in a few weeks, so do try to get me your finished piccie within the next week or two. I am also going to colour this in, in case you were wondering — so don’t feel alone and overwhelmed! 😀
Oh yes, and see if you can spot the 10 fairies, 2 bees, 2 snails and 8 ladybugs.
Isn’t it great to be a child again?
Adios!

Hey there this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
