i'm a cover artist!

mixtape and i go way back. i was the first crafty profile girl in issue numero uno and contributed to both the kids issue 7 and issue 11. before the mister & i hit the road, i got to eek out a last bit of crafty business creating the cover image for the most recent (and second to last in print on paper) issue of mixtape zine. the theme was All Around the World and man, did we travel all around our little world. it's a great issue, if i do say so myself and i do and there will be at least two more issues available in time for the holiday season, so get your crafty indie-homemade-fix withmixtape (you can even pick up earlier issues) and be one of the coolest kids on the block! thank you justine, it was a fantastic ride!

mixtape 11 out now!

whoo-hoo! i do love me some mixtape even when i do not have something napping between the covers..though just so ya know, to be fair and all, i DO have something napping in this issue but i won't tell you what it is, you'll just have to pick up a copy and see for yourself. also included in issue 11 is a nifty coloring page by aunty cookie, a coin quilt tutorial by Suzy Small, and a fun piece on the crafty stash as written by Nicol Vaughan of craftpalooza. check it out!

i like mixtape and mixtape likes me!

The Lovely ladies behind Mixtape Zine have a fun blog where they feature itty bitty mini interviews with all sorts of crafty gals, including me! Head on over and take a looksie and maybe even order yourself a copy of the newest issue. Happy Friday!

mixtape and cookies

The newest issue of mixtape zine is out and tucked away inside is not one, but two articles lovingly written by me and one even includes a recipe, for cookies...good cookies, I promise you. See? I baked up a batch just for you to see. Don't they look pretty next to the shiny, happy cover of mixtape?


What are you waiting for? Go get one! Don't forget to send me a cookie when you bake them!
