Welcome to Black Butterfly Svg! My name is Mandy Finnegan! I am a crafty person passionate about helping you create your own SVG files. When I came up with the idea for Black Butterfly Svg, it was with the goal to offer people like yourself with the very best tutorials. So if you are like me and having trouble making your own SVG files, you have come to the right place!
The name Black Butterfly Svg means a lot to me for two reasons. In the past, I have struggled with my body image and would obsess over all my imperfections. Anytime I would look in the mirror, I would be dissatisfied with the reflection staring back at me. But my daughter told me a quote one day that changed my whole perspective.
“You know butterflies can’t see the color of their wings, but us as humans can see how beautiful they are. Likewise, you might not think you’re good enough, but others can see how special and amazing you are.”
The SVG part of the name comes from my obsession with my Cricut Explore Air 2. Ever since I can remember, I was always looking for new hobbies and activities to keep myself occupied. I always loved looking at designs and wondered how to make them. My Cricut allowed me to keep myself busy while doing something I love.
In my blog, I cover a wide range of topics, and in each post, I try to share my knowledge through storytelling and visuals. Knowing that there are people who are as passionate about my interests as I am means everything to me. I hope I can offer you all the help you need to overcome your negative body image and educate you on how to make your own designs and other DIY crafts.
Hi, I’m Mandy! I am a completely self-taught designer and created Black Butterfly Svg to teach other DIY crafters how to design their SVGs (and skip a lot of the headaches and challenges I faced when starting).
Where did Black Butterfly Svg come from?
Have you ever heard ” Butterflies can’t see their wings? They can’t see how truly beautiful they are, but everyone else can. People are like that as well.” Once I was that butterfly.
I have always been a perfectionist and have high standards for everything I do. I am the type of person who is judgmental and critical of myself.
I was always a perfectionist and had high standards for everything I did. I am the type of person who is judgmental and critical of myself.
I struggled with Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) and wanted to be happy, but life just didn’t seem to bring me any joy. I was a prisoner in my brain.
I always had a love for design and a passion for perfectionism. Although I should have been listening to the advice from the professionals, I took pride in being a hard worker who would never settle.
I started by watching tutorials on how to draw and design SVG files. Then taught myself Inkscape. Eventually, I became obsessed with creating my SVG cut files.
I began to receive positive feedback on my designs, which helped me boost my self-confidence, which boosted self-esteem boosted self-worth
came up with this name since I had two compulsions that changed my life entirely.
In the past, I was diagnosed with. I used to obsess about my weight and the way I looked. Imperfections were not acceptable. I’d look in the mirror and never be satisfied with my reflection. An obsession with perceived body flaw, otherwise known as body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), is the disease of imagined ugliness
Now my other obsession came from my Cricut Explore Air 2. What can I say, it’s addicting!
Perfecting your craft is one of the main keys to being successful.
Well, I can tell you from experience, that when you realize what you’re capable of creating, it can boost your confidence in ways that you never thought possible.
Who would’ve thought this machine would have so much control over you? haha! I love creating my cut files have you ever looked at SVG and thought “Wow how did they design that ” or “Hey I can totally make that”? Yea me too! I love the whole design process, but I do have a confession to make. I hardly ever get to use my cutting machine. My OCD always kicks in and I get stuck in the design process.
