Several months ago the idea of creative constraints was discussed. I finally got around to the prompt generator list. I made a list of 56 creative constraints or prompts. The list is mapped out to work with a deck of playing cards. When you are stuck on a project or lacking inspiration, draw a card and follow it's directive. I tried to keep the list as craft agnostic as I could. Let me know if there are any that are a complete contradiction to your craft or art. It would be pretty fun to pick up a deck of cards and customize them with these prompts. if you do, please feel free to share them here! edited to add an image of the chart

WTF Wednesdays started as my way of dropping free designs for you to play with… but if I’m being honest? Lately, it has started feeling like… Kelly makes things 👉 you vote 👉 repeat. And that’s not what I want this space to be. I don’t want this to feel like it’s about me. I’m not the show. I’m just the host holding the door open. What I actually want? I want this to feel like the place where you walk in and think: "Oh… these people get me.” The ones with too many ideas. Half-finished projects. Random bursts of genius at the worst possible times. The “I don’t want to pick just one thing” energy. The kind of space where… ✨ You share something messy, and people encourage you to keep going ✨ You get unstuck because someone else said the thing you needed to hear ✨ You stop overthinking and just start creating ✨ You feel like you found your people… your "tribe" So if we’re shifting WTF Wednesdays… we’re not just changing what I post. We’re changing what this space "feels like". 👇 So tell me… In your dream version of our Creative AF tribe… What makes you stay? What makes you show up? What makes you think “yeah… this is home.” No filters. No “right” answers. Let’s go down the rabbit hole and build this space "together" 🔥 ps... feel free to use this "The Dream Awaits" design if it strikes your fancy.

At one point in my life, I believed... 👉 I had to be consistent with one craft to be taken seriously 👉 That creative people aren’t “business-minded” 👉 That I had to choose between being fun and being successful 💀 LIES. All of it. I’ve burnt out trying to be polished. I’ve quieted my own brilliance to fit into someone else’s system. I’ve paused my magic waiting for a perfect plan. And the truth is? ✨ I’m most magnetic when I’m in my chaos. ✨ I’m most powerful when I’m playing. ✨ I don’t need to “fit” someone else's strategy — I AM the strategy. The version of me that believed those lies? She was doing her best. But now? I laugh. I high-five her. I thank her. And then I leave her in the past. 💬 What’s a belief you once held that now makes you laugh a little? Or drop a 💣 or GIF in the comments and I’ll pick one of my old lies to blow up tomorrow.
