Index-Card-A-Day Challenge!

I'm not sure what I was thinking tacking on yet another project but I just loved the idea so much that I couldn't pass it up! The idea is that for 2 months you art-up an index card each day. Its put on by the lovely Daisy Yellow art blog! You can read all about the project HERE! I started a little bit late but have almost caught up. There are some prompts and what nots to help. So far I've just been doing whatever. Its only just the beginning but I'm really loving it! I'm surprised how easy and quick it is! This isn't a project that takes a lot of time or planning. You just grab a card and start layering stuff on. I love that aspect! All the projects I usually work on take a bit of planning and sketching. Its a really nice break to work on index cards. I can start and finish it before I get working on my other projects!

Anyways I'm really excited about this project! Its the prefect thing to keep me out of a creative slump! If you do participate remember to use the hashtag #dyicad2017 and let me know your instagram name in the comments so I can see your cards!!

Liebster Award!

I was nominated for the Liebster Award by the lovely lady Shay over at her blog Forever Bedhead! I think I've done this before and I'm not sure if I'm suppose to do it again but I really liked her questions and I've recently started following a bunch of new blogs, so I figured eh, why not! I suppose the rules are answer the questions, come up with new questions and nominate some of your favorite blogs. 11 to be exact!

Answers to the questions!

Where would you like to be in 10 years? All logic put aside. 
10 years? Oh my. I don't like thinking about the future too much. Always makes my head a bit queasy and tense. At the bare minimum I hope I'm at a job that is satisfying to my quirks and creativeness. I mean sure, its be great to be in a healthy relationship and have a pet cactus that's arch nemesis with my pet kitty Billie. But eh.
Do you like 80's music? If so, what is your favorite band from that era?
Can't say that I'm a 80's girl if I'm being completely honest. I should look that up more.
What is your favorite social media site?
As much as I hate to admit it, tumblr. Its just oozing with beautiful pictures and over opinionated fools. Whats not to love?
Would you rather be apart of the X-men or the Avengers?
I'm not a super hero kinda gal, but I'd have to go with X-Men. Some of there powers are hella cool!
What is your favorite article of clothing currently in your closet?
Definitely THIS dress. I bought it as a Christmas present to myself and I love it!
How has your day been?
Today has been mellow. Which is nice, last week kicked my trash!
If you could marry one celebrity, who would it be?
Definitely Matt Corby. Musicians are celebrities right?
What is the first thing on your "recently watched" list on Netflix?
Bobs burgers. Always. Bobs. Burgers.
Who is the last person you texted and what is your relationship to that person?
The last person I texted was Jerry. He's my dear friend and secret lover. hehe
What are some podcasts you frequently listen to?
I'm not a podcast listener. I should start. Any suggestions?

Blog Hops!

Now I'm not them most familiar with blog hops or link-ups, but I've found that the best way to find new blogs it by blog hops. So I always look out for them so I can find new similar blogs to read, but I haven't really participated in very many. I'd figure I'd put together a post together and share some of my recent hop findings! 
First off! Weekly Wednesday Blog Hop, I found though the lovely This Girls Life blog. Hers is one of my newest reads. Not my regular type of blog to follow, but I'm always trying to expand my horizons! 

Second! Friend connect! Now I just stumbled upon this one off of someones sidebar. I couldn't help but click on it cause "friend connect" is mighty catchy! I've yet to unearth the awesomeness that is The Life of a Not so Ordinary Wife Blog, but I hope to soon! 

 

Last but not least! The Meet and Greet blog hop! I've been following Diary of a Dreamer for a while now, I found her though the weekly wishes. I just love how she writes. I haven't fully checked out the other co-host blogs but I'm sure they are just as awesome! 

I think thats about it! Today alone I've found 4 new blogs to read! Which isn't smart adding to my massive bloglovin' list. But I just can't help it! Too many blogs not enough time!! 

Blogger Brooch!

A little while ago one of my favorite blogs/etsy shops, Stoic and Pariah, was doing a give away! Now I don't usually sign up for these things, but I've been wanting to buy on of her brooches for a long time. Just never saved the money. But then I got a email and I won the brooch! I about peed myself I was so excited. Especially cause I was having one of the crappiest days ever! So that I actually won something awesome was totally what I needed!


I love my brooch so much! I've only worn it once so far and totally felt like a classy blogger lady!  The craftsmanship is insane! You can totally tell its 100% unique and so much love put into it! So, go check our their BLOG, ETSY and like them on FACEBOOK!

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend!
