About Sparkles

Did you know, it only takes 5 minutes to Sparkle?

Are you aching to bring your creativity to life but simply feel you don’t have enough time? Are your paints languishing in the corner? Is that journal still blank? Do you keep meaning to write but you never get around to it? Does your body long to dance? Is your creative spirit wondering when you’re finally going to invite her out to play? Sparkles is for you.

Do you feel like you’re living your life in black and white? You’ve got your day job and lots of responsibilities. Your to-do list seems endless. You look longingly at the art supply store when you walk by but, seriously, who has time for that stuff? Sparkles is for you.

Is there a little secret seed in you that says, “I’m creative.” Maybe you haven’t told anyone. Maybe you’ve barely told yourself. But somehow you hear that whisper again and again but you’re just not sure what to do about it. Sparkles is for you.

Or maybe you’re at home with your creativity, maybe it’s how you make your living, but sometimes you just get burned out. You need some creative nourishment, some tasty morsels of inspiration to fill your creative well. You’re hungry for it! Sparkles is for you too.

What is Sparkles…

Sparkles is a creative e-course. For 31 days, you’ll go on an adventure designed to awaken your creative spirit and fill you and your days with sparkle. Each day, you’ll receive a quick-to-read, quick-to-do inspiring creative exercise in your inbox. Lessons come from an amazing array of creative guides from a wide range of disciplines (e.g. photography, writing, painting, sound, dance – even food!) They’ll show you how to get creative, even when you feel like you have no time at all!

How the Sparkles e-course works…

• Register whenever you are ready to begin.
• You won’t need any super-special supplies. Just something to write on, something to write with, some way to play music and a camera. So, with a journal, some markers, pens and crayons, an MP3 player (or anything that plays music) and a camera, you’re all set.
• Within a couple of days, you will start receiving a Sparkles lesson in your inbox every day for 31 days. Each sparkle is a creative prompt (an invitation to dance, write, scribble, imagine etc.), a quick and easy exercise to awaken your creative spirit in 5 minutes or less.
• Dive into each new sparkle and let the magic begin!

And the magic doesn’t end when the course is over. With Sparkles, not only will you infuse your month with creativity but you’ll also walk away with fresh tools in your creative toolkit. You’ll be able to come back to your favourite sparkles again and again and continue to fill your life with creative joy.
