These kinds of prints are made with software called Hueforge. I downloaded this free model, but I might have to download Hueforge to try making my own sometime!

 Do it because it makes you happy.  Don't do it to try and "fit in".  You belong.  You are worthy.  Do what makes you happy.  I used to make decisions based on making other people happy.  It didn't work.  I was still a disappointment, plus I was unhappy.  Now I prioritize my own happiness. ☺️  It's hard to break out of being a people pleaser.  I think this is important to remember:  If you don't feel safe being yourself around them, you are better off without them.  You deserve to feel safe being yourself.

 

 I wanted to practice color blending today, so I made a grid on my paper with masking tape and got out my tempura paint (the cheap kid paint you get at Walmart). Note for future self: remember to stick the tape to your shirt first next time so it doesn't rip the paper!

  I'm using this pattern,   https://www.savagelystitching.com/blogs/free-patterns/crochet-jellyfish-free-pattern   (thanks, Vanessa!), but with regular red heart yarn, a 4.0 mm hook, and legs that are only 16 stitches long.  These little guys crochet up so fast, I'm making a bunch in all different colors of yarn!

This was a really fun project to work on. Check it out: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DDJ75RP9 

There were more steps than I expected to get this set up, but I'm excited for this next step for my craft business. Check it out: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D125BGZL/ref=twister_B0D12D3SHZ?_encoding=UTF8&th=1
