Flower doodle challenge begins on Monday the 27th
Doodle with me for 5 days —it'll be simple and relaxing!
Hey there! Welcome to Happy Surprise, if this is your first time. This is a short one, but a reminder that the flower doodle challenge begins on Monday the 27th. It’s going to be easy peasy 🌺 If you like this article, please consider becoming a free or paid subscriber
It’s been a short week since we got home Tuesday morning after a long weekend in Germany. We drove all the way up to the Island of Fehmarn in Germany, catching the wind for windsurfing (though I don’t windsurf—I collect seashells, and wildflowers and, when I can, go swimming or grab my board if I’m feeling young again, ha!).
So this is a short one, and I will make up for it this Saturday since I am not planning to go anywhere.
Want to join me for a 5-day doodle flower challenge?
About the challenge: It’s FREE to join!
For 5 days, a daily creative prompt will be sent to you (right here!).
To join, make sure you are signed up for Happy Surprises, below!
Every day, I will share an easy prompt, guaranteed to take you no more than 5-10 minutes.
You will be given a photo resource, and a flower prompt so that you can follow along with me.
I should mention, that I’m more of an abstract and intuitive artist, so I don’t do too well with restriction or realist art making. This is great for you because it will allow you space to express yourself and infuse your own creative flair.
These will be easy peasy prompts, so you can do them in a short time, and anyone can join in—no art skills needed.
And if you don’t feel like drawing, you can always journal!
It’s all about being inspired by spring flowers and enjoying the process.
There are no rules.
If you have questions, please let me know, but I will share all the details on Saturday.

Strandkörbe! Wow! I lived in Kiel, northern Germany, for a while - and I loved the stripy seats of a Strandkorb, with their pull-out footrests and comfy cushions - MUCH comfier than the deckchairs on the beaches over here...
Looking forward to next week! 🖌️🌸🌻🖼️
Count me in. I made some tiny notebooks for the month of June. This will be the kick off. I can’t wait. 😊
