@timmsevitz: “You Do Not Just Wake Up and Become the Butterfly. Growth Takes Time.” - Rubi Kaur This illustration was inspired by something I think about a lot… growth takes time. One of the things I hear the most when I share my crafts is “I could never make it look like yours.” I get that feeling. But what you’re seeing is a lot of practice over time, not perfection. Every time you create something, even if it doesn’t turn out how you hoped, you’re growing. Your skills are improving. Your style is starting to show up. It’s not about making it look the same as mine or anyone else’s. It’s about making something that feels like you. If you’re just starting out, or getting back into creating, I hope this reminds you to keep going. Try to enjoy the process. Let it be a little messy. That’s where the magic happens. You’re growing more than you think. I promise. Keep going, my friend. I’m cheering for you! 🤍
