When I first started crafting, I thought every project had to be perfect. I’d get frustrated over smudged ink, crooked cuts, or glue that somehow ended up everywhere but where it was supposed to. But over time, I realized something important: mistakes aren’t failures—they’re part of the process. Every misstep taught me something new and helped me grow as a crafter. In fact, some of my “oops” moments turned into happy accidents that made my projects even better.
For example, Smudged Ink = Vintage Look If you accidentally smudge the edge of a stamped image—instead of tossing the card, you can lean into it and distress the edges on purpose. Then it has a rustic, vintage vibe!
I made a mistake or two on this card, but I gave it to the recipient anyway. Consider it handmade charm.
Today's Tip - Embrace your mistakes. Crafting is about joy, not perfection.
