National Crafts Month

I am sure you know that it is National Craft Month.  Did you know that if you have a Craftsy Account (no purchase necessary) that you can register for a Mystery Craft supply box for yourself and for a friend?   I have an affiliate link for that.   Enter Here - and if you win, I hope you remember that I am your friend.

There are lots of interesting things going on for National Craft Month.  Find a place in your day or week to create something!  

 While reading in "The Soul of Creativity" I found these two quotes -

"If each success requires ten failures, then count each failure as a blessing on the road to success. For our success to mount, so must our failures" Eric Maisel

And then this one - which I have stated a bit differently, but with the same meaning:

"We were created from the Creator of all the universe, so it stands to reason that creativity is as much a part of us as are our bodies, minds, and souls.....People don't stay sad for too long when they're creating because creativity is a happy energy" Echo Bodine

I haven't had my creative time since Saturday, so I have nothing new to show you.  So I will share  a couple of my older paintings.
