31 Days of Crafting - Day One - NO APOLOGIES!!!!!

HAPPY NATIONAL CRAFT MONTH!!!!!  Today is the first day of my month-long celebration of crating!!!!  This year though, I kinda want to start out with a message.....

As artists, I think we feel pressure to.....I don't know if conform is the right word, but sometimes we feel like we have to create what others create.  You know, one person buys a stamp, everyone buys that stamp.  That kind of thing.  Well I don't feel that way.  And that non-conformist attitude extends to how I feel about EVERYTHING.  My opinions are my opinions and if you don't like them, oh well, it's how I feel.  I'll be the first to admit that I get defensive about, say, my fandoms.  I'm just a passionate person.  And I got some nasty messages on IG recently, and this is how I decided to handle them.


I am who I am.  No apologies!!

Just a few challenges:


Thanks so much and happy crafting.  Laters!!!
