#CreativeLeapClub – our Spring Prompts
Photos from my mini session with Get Back To You VA
Join us for a season of Creative Prompts…
In February, I supported Sarah from These Are The Days for #CreativeLeapFebruary, our community “challenge” on Instagram. We loved our month of creative prompts to help you fall back in love with Instagram (and wherever you wanted to share the content the prompts inspired), so we are back for #CreativeLeapClub, a seasonal series of creative prompts to inspire you throughout the year.
My favourite element of the original challenge was seeing the unique approach folks took to the prompts, so please know your creativity and unique interpretation are welcomed here. There’s no timeline to follow, and you don't need to tackle the prompts in order either. We’d simply love you to use them as the inspiration for some content this spring, and tag #CreativeLeapClub and @studiogently and @thesearethedays.co so that we can see them.
With that said, here are the prompts and some suggestions on how to approach them:
The #CreativeLeapClub Spring Prompts
SOWING – what seeds are you planting for the season ahead? Are there any hopes for what you’d love to see happen this spring?
AWAKENING – coming into spring can feel like leaving a hibernation! How does your energy feel around seasonal shifts?
WANDERLUST – if you have any trips planned, please tell us about them! If not, where are you most aching to (re)visit?
FOLKLORE – are there any spring rituals that you love? Do you celebrate the equinox in anyway, or are you a fan of Beltane?
PLAYTIME – give yourself 30 minutes to create something you've been meaning to for a while and share the process or result!
MEMORY – share a story from your past; maybe one that taught you something valuable or that feels timely right now.
POEM – share a poem that resonates with you, or write a poem of your own for an extra challenge.
WONDER – share a photo or video of something that fills you with awe. It could be big Awe, from a beautiful trip, or a miracle at home.
PALETTE – tell us about your brand palette, or create a moodboard for this season including the colours you are drawn to right now.
SOLITUDE – are you somebody that loves to be alone, or do you avoid being in solitude? Share a post about where you fall on this spectrum.
HEARTSTRINGS – is there something that moved you recently? Tell us about what’s touched you most of late.
BOUNDARIES – do you love setting boundaries or you are learning this still? Share some boundaries you love or your experience setting them.
PATTERN – take a photo of a pattern you spot in the wild. Where did you see it and why did it stand out to you?
FREEDOM – what does freedom mean to you? Is it important to feel free in your life? Share your definition and what it looks like to you.
I loved this quote from our original Creative Leap blog post, so I wanted to share it again:
“Adapt the challenge to fit your style, whether it’s sticking to stories, trying a reel, or embracing detailed captions. And remember, the ordinary for you can be extraordinary for someone else.”
Give yourself grace and space
Sarah and I want these prompts to feel like a gentle nudge for your creativity, not a chore that needs to be ticked off your to-do list! Approach them with curiosity, letting yourself do the prompts you resonate with most, rather than feeling you need to complete them all and in the “right” order.
Explore new mediums
Never tried making a Reel? Ready to give Threads a go? We’d love these prompts to serve as the excuse you need to dip your toes into something new, if that feels like something you would enjoy this spring.
Engage In community
Challenges are always so much more fun in a group! Explore the hashtag #CreativeLeapClub to see how everybody else is approaching the prompts and to cheer each other on.
There you go my loves!
We can't wait to see you over on Instagram! Don’t forget to find us on @studiogently and @thesearethedays.co – we can't wait to get creative with you this spring…
