♥ Fresh Start!

Hey lovelies!!

It’s been forever since I have been here! Thank you for those who are still here, and to those who are not anymore, that’s totally fine too.

All this time I was away, I just needed it for myself, work on some habits I wanted to get rid off and make some new, healthier habits. You know, that’s not easy at all haha. But I feel that I’m getting used to my healthier lifestyle. I still wanna add things to my life, like Yoga, but that will come with time. I can’t change my whole life at once, and I’m totally fine with that. Slowly I will get where I wanna be.

Even tho I struggled a lot, the past time. As well as with my health, as well physically. I found out about stuff I didn’t even realize and I got pretty sick. I’m not saying everything is fine now. But I’m so ready to move on. I’m slowly getting there, finding my path. I know what I want and I’m gonna work hard for that, but step by step.

I have so many plans for the future, and one of them is opening a Etsy shop and sell my crafts. I am making art-dolls lately, they turn out way to cute, how can I ever say bye to them?! But yeah, I know I have to sell most of them, cause my room is getting way to crowded with all those creatures XD. I’m sometimes worried that, when I’m away, they will give a party and leave a big mess in there..teehee.

I also decided to make a fresh start with Instagram, I have made a new account. I have been thinking about that for over a year now, but I didn’t dare to do it. I guess I was to attached to the followers I have and scared to loose them. But hey.. I can build that up again, and if you were following me already and wanna follow me along on my journey, definitely go follow me there, I promise you there will be better content, like stuff I wanna sell, behind the scenes, TSUM TSUMS xD, patterns, give aways  and lot’s more~. So hit that follow button!! Click Click Click~

Fresh Start

I also gonna use my website more in combination with Instagram. So for example I post a picture of a Tsum Tsum I made and on my blog I will post the pattern. I hopefully gonna post blogs every week or every other week, depends on how fast I get used to posting things XD.
There’s also my deviantart page, which I abandoned for so long, I will start posting there again, so if you feel like watching me there (I still think that’s scary stuff tho xD) hit the link now ^^ Click Click Click~

Okay I have rambled enough for today XD

With Love,

♥ Happy New Year!!

Wishing you all an awesome new year, let’s hope amazing things will happen!!

Happy New Year

2016 has been a though year for me, I struggled a lot and found out that I had a burn-out. I start to feel better  finally, so I really hope 2017 is going to get good for me. I have a lot of plans~

This was also the main reason I didn’t update my site. Hopefully I can catch up soon, and get it up-to-date! Cause even I haven’t made a lot of stuff this past year, I still made things. I just can’t sit still, MUST do something. No matter how hard it is XD.

Here are some of my favorite things I made this past year.

My plans for 2017 are probably a bit much, but I will try to make them real. Here are some:
♥ Start making art-dolls and sell them.
♥ Trying to involve my crafts in my drawings or the other way around.
♥ More fantasy related art overall xD.
♥ Figure out how to use Gold Leaf

Have a good year everyone!

With Love,
Danielle

♥ The Contest Began

Hello lovely readers!

So in November I was looking for new art supplies, when am I not?! Then I bumped in this coloring contest hosted by Goedkoopstehobby.nl. Surprisingly I found out about a contest on time! and not just a few days left or past the deadline already, what happens usually xD. I just knew I had to join.

I printed out the coloring picture for me and my mom (my mom wanted to try too!) and started coloring. I had no clue how I wanted to color the picture, in my eyes the picture was very boring, but in the end that was a good thing cause I could put a lot creativity in.

After hours, days of work I finaly finished my drawing. It might have took longer as I wanted, but in the end I was happy with the result. obvisiously my mom finished it way before me, but decided to scan both at the same time. Sended my drawing in (my mom hers) and waited until the drawings were posted. At this point, I never could imagine how it would go from here.

Creativity Travels Through Time and SpaceThis is my drawing

 

Some of the drawings got posted earlier as the deadline hasn’t past yet. One of them was mine. I didn’t know what was going on, until I checked my email and got the question “did you color it by hand or digital?” I was confused for a moment but then I saw it as a compliment that they had to ask if it was traditional or digital, so I happily replied that I drew it all by hand and took me so much time. The respond I got at the facebook page where all the drawings were posted…after the host said I drew it by hand… not even normal, I even got called a liar, while I knew I spended so many hours on it. (I couldn’t reply at facebook since I don’t own a facebook page). I was so sad and angry, I couldn’t sleep that night, I kept thinking of ways how to proove I made it with pencil and paint.

The next day I made many pictures of my drawing, in different angles. Also I made some kind of tutorial on how I colored all the different sections. emailed the host again with my story. I got the reply if he could post it on the facebook page with my drawing, and I said yes, Ofcourse. And now I finally got respect for my drawing!

Some of the pictures I made and the tutorial (More picture on my dropbox):

The voting proces has begon. I usually hate votings (bad experience), but here they said they will pick 2 winners themself and 2 based on the voting, so I was okay with that and just wait until the results were out. I had no clue who would win, because I liked several.

I became first!!

I won a 120 pencil case of Faber Castell polychromos!! I am still so happy with them!! I owned polys already, but I draw a lot so they shrink fast xD AND I could give the old ones to my mom, so in a way she won too ^_^. Here’s a drawing I did with my new pencils (I needed some time before I dared to use them. They were to pretty to use~~)

The Reckoning

In the end everything worked out. So I wanna tell you, no matter what happens, NEVER GIVE UP!

With Love,
Danielle
