So, here’s my last Make Something Cool Every Day for this 14 day series. I’ve done a couple personal ones, some of which I didn’t post, but this one is by far the most personal. What you’re looking at isn’t actually the piece but, I’ll explain after the jump.

Because this was the last of the series, I really wanted it to be good. I didn’t want to just choose a random thought, quote or song lyric, I wanted to choose something that was really powerful to me. So part of the creativity for this was, I created lists… and lists. I wrote down my favorite quotes, the happiest times in my life, the toughest, and most meaningful lyrics. The text I’ve chosen happens to be at the top of my quote list as well as one of the happiest/touching points in my life.

I’ve spent A LOT of time on this design, but nothing really did the quote justice. I finally found a stopping point and I’m truly happy with it, I really feel like I went out on my best one…. but you won’t see that one. As with the rest of the personal posts, I wasn’t planning on posting this, but I thought it’d be really lame to not post my last one, as this was the goal. So, I dropped out the images and illustrations and what-not and have posted the background and text. I’m not sure if it’s much to look at as is, but I think the text makes it beautiful.

Thank you to everyone who followed me during this series, and I’ll definitely be doing it again. I don’t know if I’ll be doing 14 days again, but I will for sure be doing it again. The time spent on my creativity really made me feel at peace and really helped me push myself and get to know myself. It was worth the time spent, and I’m looking forward to venturing into it again.
