But mostly just because....
I like putting together pretty things.
That's really about it.
So with this in mind, after a couple days of struggling to make a card that satisfied me, I made this.
I don't really mind if no else likes it.
Or even if someone thinks it's a mess.
I like it.
And I liked making it.
So I'm smiling. :)
Thanks for stopping in and I hope you have a blessed day!

PPS: I redid my shoppe, added some new colors, and some new trinkets - I'd love to know what you think. :)

ReplyDeleteGreat post, Clare. I think you've shared a couple of things that we all feel at times; struggling to make a card, and not caring whether anyone else likes it. As long as YOU enjoy the process and like the end result, that's what's important. Although, I have now idea why anyone else WOULDN'T like this card - it's really pretty!
ReplyDeleteIt is a great hobby for relaxing and releasing tension Clare. I am so glad you enjoyed making this card... it is lovely
