Design Update

When my old laptop died after over 8 years of good times, it was sad.  That thing had its moments, but it also had a fan replacement, a hard drive crash, and basically died a slow, broken hard-drive, overheated death.  It was sad, but what was most upsetting was Photoshop 7.0 was installed on it, you guys.  Trying to design a blog to make it my own without the use of my trusty old photoshop software was kind of a challenge.  I didn't want to shell out the money to get Photoshop again,  it's not that serious.  So I ended up downloading GIMP.  For a free program, it is really good and I can see why a lot of people recommended it.  But I was used to Photoshop,  and already knew it was going to take some time for me to get used to all these features and such.  I tried to find the user manual online and ended up googling other Photoshop alternatives again.  Fortunately, I found out that Adobe released Photoshop CS2 for free on their website.  It's been on there for free for over a year.  Like, an actually legal download of Photoshop software.  For the free!  ::fist pumps::

Anyways, my point is that I updated this blog's design and it looks more crisp than the design I made using PhotoScape.  I like how it turned out,  but I need more content.  That, is something I am working on.

And two weeks later...

 I am starting off this blog terribly.  I haven't really picked up a project to start.  I have all these ideas in my head, jumbled and ready to go, but I keep pushing it aside.

So yeah.  I'm so sorry, craft blog.

I will try to craft something soon because this is pathetic.

Back to Blog

I haven't blogged in forever, but was recently inspired to start up something just to keep track of my crafting projects rather than mixing it up with random posts on my tumblr and instagram.  I can't find anything on there.  This blog will be strictly for crafting, and just for me to track my creativity and hopefully inspire more creativity and thus begin my upward spiral (is this a thing?) of creative awesomeness.  :::pumps fist in the air:::  I'm making it for me, but if you happen to read it its okay,  I'm not selfish.  Maybe I'll finish a project rather than leaving it midway.  Maybe I'll finish that afghan within a year.  Hey, maybe I'll finally get around to making those curtains for the kitchen.  Maybe I'll finally figure out how to make a well-crafted pep flag.  Maybe.  Time will only tell.  Let's step up my crafting game, shall we? 1-2-3 GO!
(If I don't blog within two weeks after I make this post, I'm so sorry.)
