Zines!
By Marceline | October 27, 2009
Hey. remember my Zine Challenge? If not, I challenged myself and some creative friends to make a zine this year (or, um FIVE if you’re me). Well, someone finally did it!
I got one of these lovelies in the post a few weeks ago from Jen aka hellojenuine. Not only has she managed to be the first (and so far only) one of us to get a zine out but it’s full of her lovely illustrations and with a gocco printed cover to boot.
She’s also just opened up shop on Etsy where I was delighted to make the first purchase of these awesome Nice Advice postcards. Unfortunately, not only are they so awesome I am never sending them to anyone but they’re so prettily packaged I haven’t been able to bring myself to even open them yet. I should though, so I can put a couple in my ever changing desk frame.
Anyway, I heartily recommend you pop over to her Etsy shop and get yourself something too.
The other good news is that I have just about finished ONE of my zines, so hopefully I’ll get that out before the end of the year. So, only four more and load of patterns to do by January…
I’ll also sneak in a little reminder to – Alice of Peapods, Elise of Argyle Whale
and Kim of Madness of Many – I would still love you all to make a zine.
