Carving Out Creativity 4-2

Vertical Lily & Thistle title graphic over a photograph of a woman seated at a table and working with her hands. A tall translucent white panel extends through the center. At the top, dark charcoal serif capitals read “HOW TO FIND.” Large red script beneath reads “Creative Time” across two lines. The next section reads “PRACTICAL TIPS” in large dark charcoal serif capitals, followed by “FROM A” in smaller dark serif type. The word “Busy” appears in very large red script, with “MOTHER” beneath in large dark serif capitals and “OF FOUR” in smaller capitals below. “LILYANDTHISTLE.COM” is centered along the bottom. Behind the overlay, a woman with long dark brown hair appears on the right side, leaning over a tabletop and looking downward with a slight smile or focused expression. Her hand holds a pen, pencil, brush, or other slender creative tool. She wears a light-colored top, and the background on the left is a deep muted green-gray. Several blurred upright art tools or containers sit near the lower-left portion of the scene.
