A Creative Experiment
Bewitched Crafts with Tracy Miller
How does baking a fancy cake relate to my experience at my craft table? My creativity experiment reminded me of the basics of my preferred work style and even the importance of keeping my energy up with music. Most important of all, it reinforced the message of focusing on the effort, the sentiment, and the emotion instead of perfection. Listen in for the details!

May Big Three
Bewitched Crafts with Tracy Miller
This Spring just seems to be passing so quickly. I don't want to let my days rush by and find myself on a hamster wheel. I want to use my paper crafting hobby to support my dreams and goals. One of the ways I do that is by playing a game called the Big Three. Each month I plan three things that light me up and get my creative jiuces flowing. Then I scrapbook those events. I get the joy of anticpating them, the joy of the experience, and the joy of documenting the memory in my album.

Evidence I Can Do Hard Things
Bewitched Crafts with Tracy Miller
These days my favorite project is my Toolbox Journal. It's the place where I track my progress on my goals (including my 26 in 2026 list), a commonplace book, and a place to keep notes on all I am learning this year. I am especially interested in science backed behavior change. I am currently working to create a layout of evidence that I can do hard things such as finding the right auto mechanic, taking care of my oral health, and finally taking my left over paints to the tip. The resource mentioned in this episode is Change Academy (from Body Brain Alliance and Dr. Kardin...

Motivated
Bewitched Crafts with Tracy Miller
In this episode, I am sharing tips for using your paper crafting hobby to bring energy to your goals and dreams. I need to manage a large, lengthy project.

Friday Night Crafting
Bewitched Crafts with Tracy Miller
Spring is a season of energy and change for me. As I grow into the 2.0 version of myself, I want to make sure how I spend my time reflects my values. I value creativity and connection and I often express that through card making and creating scrapbook layouts. To that end, it's time to bring back Friday night crafting. The old school crop is no longer around, but I remember it fondly. I love the idea of a dedicated time for fun at my craft table. Won't you join me?

Charlotte
Bewitched Crafts with Tracy Miller
In this episode I am spilling the tea on my girls weekend in Charlotte. I was thoroughly spoiled by my hostess who has the loveliest craft room and the most amazing die cutting station I've ever seen. We made time for shopping and had a special perfume adventure which was the inspiration for a card made with new supplies from the Pinkfresh Studios Couture Edit.

ChatGPT and the Big Three
Bewitched Crafts with Tracy Miller
Every month I play a little game in my planner. Before I set up appointments and the many tasks I need to complete, I schedule three things that bring me joy. These three experiences are meant to light me up and get my creative energy flowing. They are not about the shoulds of life or even self care so oil changes, dental appointments, and even massages don't make this list. Instead, I think of artist dates...concerts, manatees at a state park, tickets to a musical. This month I needed some fresh ideas and a personal assistant. Listen in as I describe the...
