Let's just say...

"Embrace imperfection" - I love that! I feel that a lot - but later it all seems perfect!
Thanks!
Laurette

it is ok.

You are so right...the world can be a much better place if we all do just that: "embrace imperfection."

Honestly - never would have noticed had you not said something. Guess I'm not a detailed reader ... ;)

I'd be a wreck if I didn't embrace imperfection.
p.s. peek at my blog for a fun flower quiz. I know how your family is with gardening!

It is ALL good!

now if everyone gave a dime rather than pointing out a spelling error - you'd really rake in those donations, eh? ;)

I smiled when I read your 'beacuse'. It's a word to love and I will use it what I will create. It's embracing inperfection in one word. It says it all.
Together with the following phrases BEACUSE is my creative manifesto:
1. Beacuse
2. just get started
3. go with the flow
4. love to dabble
5. step by step
6. have fun
7. trust yourself
8. enjoy the little things
Thanks Ali.

Ali, thanks so much for all you do to raise awareness about autism. My nephew is autistic so I know how challenging and life changing it can be.
I also appreciate that you do so much to inspire creativity in people-- one of my passions. My sister Karen and I co-authored the book Visual Chronicles: The No-Fear Guide to Creating Art Journals, Creative Manifestos & Altered Books. We hope all your readers will be inspired by your current newsletter and if they need an extra nudge, that they'll check out our book...as we say in Visual Chronicles, we are all ART.

Hey! That might be a great place to start a creative manifesto: Embrace (and maybe even run to) imperfection. HUGS Ali!

This challenge is good (and a toughy) - looking forward to figuring out what my creative manifesto will be! Thanks Ali!

Love it!
I noticed it, and I love that you did too...Ah well, at least you were consistent!

love you Ali! way to embrace it girl :) we are all human, all make mistakes, no use pretending to be perfect...that would take so much fun out of life! take care OK

Embrace Perfection. How cool, Ali. Kind of goes with my motto...Perfection is Boring. I appreciate your AEzine and blog so much. You're a treasure.

you are so right, i did that with my last LO. It just wasn't what I wanted, but hey they can't all be masterpieces.... I'm embracing my imperfection ! THANKS for your inspiration in the a zine !

LOL I noticed the error when I printed mine off but just shrugged and thought, "Good to know I'm not the only one who makes typos" and promptly forgot about it. Have a great day!

Hey Ali,
Just wondering if it is possible to donate if you live outside the US. I tried but everything seemed to default to US states etc. and I couldn't enter any Canadian info.
Would love to donate. Let me know.
Thanks,
Alexandra

Needed to hear this today. I had a custom piece done and it did not turn out as I was expecting, but I will embrace it and make it work! Thanks for the reminder.
Peace to you,
Meredith

Actually, I thought you meant to write it as "beacuse"...for the fun of it all!
I was actually pronouncing it in front of the computer..."Beeee *cuse*" thought it was yet another clever way of saying we don't need a reason for fun & creativity!

I embrace it. I thought it was a play on words. Create beacuse. Sounded good to me. :)
Love ya!
