Pun not intended, this is where we will keep track of the events occurring on each day in December! The current event is marked with a snowflake.
December 1st: A magical seed has begun to sprout.. will you help it grow by watering it? (comment describing you and/or your cuties watering the sprout! something special might just happen..)
EXPLANATION: This event was a comment raffle! Three lucky winners were chosen to receive a special seasonal item .
December 2nd: All this water certainly helped the sapling grow! It's still tiny, though, and seems confused on what it wants to become! Why not help it decide by showing it some pictures of pine trees you can find around town? (comment with a link to any one deviation - yours or someone else's - depicting a pine tree in any form!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, three winners who had posted images with the most "impact" were chosen to receive a special seasonal item .
December 3rd: The sapling is growing at a steady rate, and it seems to know what it wants to be now. But there seem to be some weeds popping up all around it! (comment with a creative solution to removing any and all weeds that might pop up without harming the sapling!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, three winners who had posted the most creative and/or descriptive solutions were chosen to receive a special seasonal item .
December 4th: The weeds are gone now, but the sapling has started to grow sideways for some reason! (comment with a creative solution to straighten the sapling without harming it!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, three winners who had posted the most creative and/or descriptive solutions were chosen to receive a special seasonal item .
December 5th: Turns out the tree was being blown sideways by fierce winds! Thanks to everyone's help, it is growing straight once more, but it's lost a lot of the needles that were growing on it! (comment with a creative solution to either help the sapling grow more needles, stop it from losing any more, and/or attach the old ones to it again!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, three winners who had posted the most creative and/or descriptive solutions were chosen to receive a special seasonal item .
December 6th: Though the clouds are beginning to gather, the wind has stopped blowing so fiercely and this tree's needles are safely growing back. The nights must be long and lonely, though - why not tell this little tree a little story to cheer it up? (comment with a story - from either your own experiences or imagination - to help keep the tree company!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who had shared one of their stories received a special seasonal item .
December 7th: The sapling is growing at a steady rate. However, dark clouds have blocked the sun from sight! This poor sapling needs some light to grow bigger. (comment with a creative solution to providing the sapling with some sort of light source!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, three winners who had posted the most creative and/or descriptive solutions were chosen to receive a special seasonal item .
December 8th: The sapling now has enough light and has grown quite a bit! But for some odd reason, the needles on its branches have faded to a dim, transparent color. Perhaps a certain familiar pigment will suffice for bringing the colors back.. (comment with an amount of CSD you would like to give up to help bring color back into the sapling's needles!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who participated received a special seasonal item .
December 9th: Well, this certainly looks like a.. colorful tree. Perhaps it would look a bit better if some lights were strung on it! The only question is which lights.. (draw - from scratch - a string of lights however you want, then upload the image to deviantART and comment with a link to it!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who participated received a special seasonal item .
December 10th: Oh? Looks like there's been a gift placed under the tree a few weeks early.. perhaps it could be given to a worthy friend. (Comment with the username of one person on dA - besides yourself - you think is worthy of receiving this gift! NOTE: If they aren't a member of C-C and are chosen to receive the gift, they will be asked to join the group within 48 hours or the gift will go to someone else.)
EXPLANATION: In this event, one lucky member out of the ones who were recommended for the gift was randomly chosen to receive a special seasonal item .
December 11th: Thanks to everyone's help, the gift found a nice home. Today, it has started to snow! The tree seems a bit cold, so perhaps it needs a blanket or two. (draw - from scratch - a blanket however you want, then upload the image to deviantART and comment with a link to it!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who participated received a special seasonal item .
December 12th: The tree is nice and warm, now covered in blankets! It also looks as if it has matured enough to be decorated, though perhaps we should wait a bit longer before adding ornaments.. how about adding some tinsel, paper chains, popcorn strings, or something else light you can think of? (draw - from scratch - a tree decoration excluding ornaments/strings of lights however you want, then upload the image to deviantART and comment with a link to it!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who participated received a special seasonal item .
December 13th: The tree is looking prettier each day! How about we decorate it with some ornaments today? (draw - from scratch - up to three ornaments however you want, then upload the image to deviantART and comment with a link to it!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who participated received a special seasonal item .
December 14th: The tree is looking stylish today, and look! Another present has appeared! Now who should it go to..? (Comment with the username of one person on dA - besides yourself - you think is worthy of receiving this gift! NOTE: If they aren't a member of C-C and are chosen to receive the gift, they will be asked to join the group within 48 hours or the gift will go to someone else.)
EXPLANATION: In this event, one lucky member out of the ones who were recommended for the gift was randomly chosen to receive a special cutie .
December 15th: Look, there are some footprints in the snow! Perhaps you can investigate to see if someone has dropped anything..? (Comment with a letter of the alphabet to see if anything is buried in the snow! You can only guess once, and you will not gain anything from guessing the same space as another member, so be sure to check the other comments before guessing yourself!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who participated received either some ~PrismToken s, a special seasonal item , or a special cutie .
December 16th: A little Dinko seems to have found the tree while sniffing around for food! From the way he's sniffing ~Elephantfreak 's cookie ornament, he seems pretty hungry for treats, so why not find him something yummy looking? (comment with a link to any one deviation - yours or someone else's - depicting a sweet treat in any form!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, one winner who had posted an image that appealed most to the Dinko's tastes was chosen to become its owner.
December 17th: Oh, look! There's a pretty Harevil egg underneath the tree. It seems to be moving side to side in a sort of rhythm! Perhaps it likes music. (comment with the title of one of your favorite holiday songs for the egg to listen to; bonus points if you link to your favorite arrangement of it on YouTube!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, one member out of the ones who showed the shiny Harevil egg one of their favorite holiday songs was chosen to be its owner.
December 18th: The tree is looking pretty today, and look! There's another present underneath it! Whom shall it go to? (Comment with the username of one person on dA - besides yourself - you think is worthy of receiving this gift! NOTE: If they aren't a member of C-C and are chosen to receive the gift, they will be asked to join the group within 48 hours or the gift will go to someone else.)
EXPLANATION: In this event, one lucky member out of the ones who were recommended for the gift was randomly chosen to receive a special cutie .
December 19th: Lookin' spiffy, tree! And check out this neat little present! Whom shall it go to? (Comment with the username of one person on dA - besides yourself - you think is worthy of receiving this gift! NOTE: If they aren't a member of C-C and are chosen to receive the gift, they will be asked to join the group within 48 hours or the gift will go to someone else.)
EXPLANATION: In this event, one lucky member out of the ones who were recommended for the gift was randomly chosen to receive a special cutie .
December 20th: Today marks one year since *Lunar-Wind came up with the concept of #Canvas-Cuties ! Felicity has come to visit the tree in celebration. Her favorite thing about the group is all of the wonderful members she has met! What is your favorite thing about the group? (Comment with one of your favorite colors and one or more of your favorite things about #Canvas-Cuties !)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who participated received a special gift .
December 21st: Lookin' spiffy today, tre-- OH GREAT FELICITY WHAT IS THIS.. ( HELP CAN SOMEONE PLEASE UNTIE ME SO I CAN RUN THE ADVENT CALENDAR)
EXPLANATION: merry trollmas from the north troll!
December 22nd: Now that all those.. *ahem* trolls are gone, we can resume our advent calendar! Now that I think about it, the tree seems awfully plain without the trolls.. but I think I know what the problem is! Look, there isn't anything on top of the tree! Normally, we put a light-up star on top, but can you think of anything better? (draw - from scratch - a tree topper however you want, then upload the image to deviantART and comment with a link to it!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, everyone who participated received a special seasonal item .
December 23rd: The tree is looking a lot prettier with all the decorations we've added! And look, there's an egg underneath the tree! It seems a bit lonely.. perhaps you can entertain it with a story. (Comment with a story of one of your actual holiday experiences! It can be anything from heartwarming to silly, happy to sad, etc. just as long as it's something that happened to you and is related to the holiday season somehow!)
EXPLANATION: In this event, one lucky member out of the ones who were recommended for the gift was randomly chosen to receive a special cutie .

Becky and her little Dinko, Splash, walked cheerfully up to the tree. Splash walked a little behind Becky, wearing a red Snuggy and a bright blue winter hat. As they ventured up to the tree, Splash quickly spotted the Harevil egg, running up to it and staring at it curiously. "Wat dat?" She askes, looking up at Becky with bright brown eyes. Becky kneeled down on the snowy ground. "Hmm, looks like a Harevil egg to me. I wonder why it's out here alone in the snow?" Becky looked at the egg. She quickly noticed that the egg was moving. Splash seemed to notice also and squealed. "Kan I singz a Santy song to et?" She asked. Becky smiled. "I don't see why not." She stood up and watched as her Dinko started to sing.
"Da mood iz wright, da spirit iz up, we har to nite, and dats enough. Simply have in a wondyful x-mas tyme. Simple ly have in a wondyful x-mas tyme! Tha parte's awn, da feel ins har, dat only comes, thiz tyme of yarr! Simp we havin a wondyful X-mas tyme! Simply have in a wondyful x-mas tymee!" Just as Splash was about to sing again, she sneezed. "I think we should be heading back now, don't want you to catch a cold!" "Okayz!" Splash allowed herself to be picked up by Becky as she walked home.
(Derp, heres the song Splash sang: [link] )
