Sienna nights * Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes

Have finally had a chance to catch up on entries, comments, friends entries and such. Been keeping myself busy with a lot of things that weren't LJ since my last post.

Now I'm back, and so are my icon muzes. A new post will come soon!

Also got a new layout, credit goes to leavesofyanara, header was made by my little old self!

First off: HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL OF YOU LJ'ERS!!!
Hope you can all make the new decemmium a good and healthy one with loads of beautiful artwork, personal stories and much more..

I actually made most of this batch in the last week of December, since my workplace is closed [all the kids went home to family and/or friends], but I still didn't have time to post until now due to all the family visits and cooking. Enjoy!

I have an actual resource post that I made when I first started this journal. But I realised that I use tutorials, .psd or parts of them to make all the icons that you find in my journal. Therefore, I'm making this special post to honor their original work that still helps me make icons. These tutorials taught me how to use Photoshop..

It's been snowing and freezing here in Holland for over three days now! I'm loving it and I'm praying this white world outside will remain white until Christmas... Made me finally want to post my new Christmas icons. There's probably a million of them out here on LJ already, but I don't care, I want my own!

Tease you much

I fell in love with Rome in Italy a little over a year ago during a city trip there with my grandmother. I'm dying to go back by myself some day, but for now, I decided to take Rome home by claiming the subject at 100stockicons. It's my second 100 stock challenge and one I'm having a lot of fun with so far.

Subject: Rome
Status: 20/100
Themes: 16/70

My challenge for 100stockicons is complete!! I made 100 coffee related icons and you can find them here. All of them together in this single post, will therefore lock the other ones in a little while.

For those of you who have kept track of the previous coffee posts, you'll find a lot of them you will already know, there are only 23 add-ons for this last batch.

Here's the list of all the icons I made for challenges that actually won something.. In no particular order I'm afraid, simply because I was too lazy to do that right now, perhaps I'll do that in the future.

Will also add on here if I win more!
