heart Instagram.

Have you tried Instagram yet?
It's one of most fun photo apps i've ever owned and played with.
I've connected with some really creative folks on there too.

AND the filters on there are SUPER swell!!
They make my nightly doodles even AWESOME-er.

Have a creative day!
Jenipher :)

DON'T give up!

Truth.

Believe it!

Daily-Colored-Doodle

Today while playing with my doodle i felt like copying my flowers over and over. It's cute. I'm still going to work on it...but i don't hate it. :) :)

It doesn't hurt that this is one of my FAVORITE sentiments.

Every. Bit. Counts.

I hope you are having a splendid Friday!

smiles,

Jenipher :)

Truth-A-Doodle.

I want all of you to Listen To Me.
You are beautiful.
Talented.
Loved so dearly.
And are making a difference in this world.

Now repeat this to yourself.
Every time you forget.


Mucho love to you my dear friends.
Jenipher :]

Love and Hate.

Today's been a hard day.
I know i said that in my last post.

So my daily colored doodle is a little on the sadder side.
But honest none-the-less.

I'm wondering who else could understand this statement. I know i can't be alone in the boat, yet i wish i was. It would be silly to think i was though. I truly wish we ALL understood what beautiful, talented people we were.

I'm learning it more every day.
And i hope you are too.

Much Love,
Jenipher :]

i AM a princess.

On Monday, my 89 year old GREAT aunt called to tell me she sent me a package.

Inside was the most beautiful card saying how i am their princess and expressing how much joy i bring to them. She said i should always feel like a princess and when i forget i should put on the tiara to remind myself.

Today is one of those days.

I have the best best best BEST aunt and uncle in the entire world. I love them so dearly.

Rest. Have some.

Today while thinking about the 'end of the world', i begin thinking about what i may regret if i did die suddenly.

Happy i know...
But i realize that even though I'm getting help with my anxiety; i still worry so much i feel hindered by it. I still worry all the time that I'm a burden, i constantly worry about what i consume. And that's just some of the daily burdens along with the regular ol' grown up stuff. I realize it's illogical to have such worries all the time, but like the saying says 'so much easier said then done'.

Which is why i think today's 'daily colored doodle' is so appropriate.

I never really thought the world was going to end today, but i am very thankful i got to spend another day alive and well.

I hope you're day was fulfilling.
Do something that makes you come a l i v e!!

smiles to you dear friends,
Jenipher :)

Opperation: Daily Pretty.

Today's colored doodle is something i have to constantly remind myself.
How about you?
Have you learned this GEM yet?

smiles to ya'll.
Jenipher :)

Daily Pretty.

Today's daily [colored] doodle is one of my new favorites!!! I really like it. Loads. :)

I have you have a COLORFUL day!
much love,
Jenipher :)

Opperation: well-doodle.

I'm going to ignore the fact that i don't like my font on this doodle. I won't even mention that it bothers me it's not 'pretty' enough... because fact is... 'the doodle is as beautiful as i'.

There's a car dealer at my job who told me twice now
[in his Spanish accent];
"You are as beautiful as your dooodless"

Well...This doodle isn't perfect, but it is loved just as much as i am, even though i'm not perfect. If you've been reading my blog for a little while, you know that i have been constantly struggling with eating issues the past two years. I have to CONSTANTLY remind myself that even though i'm gaining weight, i am still beautiful. My beauty is NOT defined by how small my waist is; how smart i am; and how talented/successful i am.

I am beautiful because i am genuine.
I am beautiful becuase i am flawed.
I am beautiful because God made me this way.
And I'm so very thankful He did.

YOU are so beautiful!!
love, Jenipher

Inspired to Inspire.

My friend Andrea from Paper Sparrow is doing an 'April challenge' which has her painting a new image every day for the month of April...[aside from me just realizing it's May] I'm very intrigued! I've felt in a rut and over whelmed by general life so i've been trying to draw and color more of my doodles. I'm going to try and commit to posting them [and other posts] more often [CONSISTENTLY!] for a month. Hooray! Lets see how it goes.

Enjoy! ;)
