For my letter "B" I put a snowflake for Christmas, letter "R" I put a New Years that says 2013, letter "I" I used a heart for Valentine, letter "S" an egg for Easter and letter "A" I picture that says "Happy Birthday". I used themes on my letters.

Emotions


This emotion is acceptance. For my background I first got a rectangle shape and the colored I put was a bright line green. I did three different shapes that are hearts. For one of the hearts I used the reshaped tool so it can be open in the middle.
 This emotion is anger. For my background I used a solid red color with black DNA texture. I also added shapes such as a big red circle, a red smart polygon. red star, red bar, and I added 4 lines in my project. I did 4 lines across and a red thick. I think this is anger because its has dark colors
 This emotion is fear. For my background I made it a dark green color and kinda looks like grass and I added differents so it can be feared. I think this is fear because it look gross.
This emotion is surprise. I did a bright blue color with a background that looks like grass. I added a star shape and a smile without eyes and I also did a big rectangle and arrow. I think this is surprise because the smile and star kinda surprise you.
 This emotion is sadness. I made my background is a blue color. It looks like its raining and I added 4 big dark blue color. I think this is sadness because it of how I made it look like rain and the blue.










Butterfly

My stem I did an oval and stretched it out, I also did the same thing to my leaves but i made them smaller. For my flower I copied one the leaves and I colored them light pink and copied and paste all around the middle circle. For my butterfly I did a color and then I used reshape area tool so I can make it half a circle, I just copied and pasted the other colors and I make them smaller.

I first started by doing small circles and making them bigger, on my last circle I colored it black so it can look like its going in. After that I got a circle and made it into an oval shape, then I copied and pasted so I could make another pumpkin.
