Those are the meaning of Creative and Creativity taken from dictionary.com. But in my opinion;

Creative:
Creative is like something that is very artsy and nobody have ever think about it before.

Example:
The portable chair (image on the left)

No one has ever created a portable chair like that before. That is why it called creative. Because of its design is so original. Plus, it's very artistic.





Creativity:
To me, creativity is something a exist in your mind. Creativity can be develop by analytical, expression, curiosity and sensual. It also means something that is never been think or created by someone else before.
