Creating is basically manifesting. If you want to get better at something, what do you do? Well, some people just hope and wish, and others take action. This is an exercise designed around action...inspired action...even if most people might call it by the boring name of 'practice'.
I have designed a couple of PDFs you can choose from, to practice your Creatuitivity (manifesting) every day. One is a letter sized 2-page per month calendar grid of squares you can use, and the other is a half letter sized weekly booklet with space for lots of intuitive planning and journaling.

ARC SUPPLIES** - These are supplies I use to hold my Creatuitivity Squares pages. I bought a Poly Binder, then bought a set of specialty covers to replace the plain ones.(totally optional, but I like looking at pretties!) Then I printed out my Creatuitivity Squares PDF on regular paper front-to-back for 12 months, and used the ARC Hole Punch on them so I could use the pages in the Poly Binder. You can use the ARC preprinted pages that come in the binder for journaling, lists, brainstorming, whatever--just grab a set of the ARC Dividers to separate your sections.

CREATUITIVITY SQUARE CUTTERS - I do NOT create directly onto my Creatuitivity Squares pages, because I don't want to have to worry about ink showing through my pages. I can choose the media for each of my 1-3/4" squares that best suits the technique for that square. For instance, if I want to watercolor, I can choose a square of watercolor paper that will not bleed through or warp. There are several ways to cut out your project squares...if you want to want fast and easy, pick a punch; if you want a process that will conserve the most paper, consider a paper trimmer. Do yourself a favor--nix the ruler and scissors method, and buy yourself a sleek tool!
