got craft, spring addition & a sneak peek

This weekend is the always wonderful Got Craft? Spring show. Line ups for the famous swag bags are always long and people have been known to start lining up at 6am. It's definitely the city's best craft fair and I'm so excited that I'll be having a table for this show. I also did the postcard (above) and I love seeing the poster all over Vancouver streets when I'm out walking about.

I was a wreck earlier this year when I just couldn't get inspired to make anything new. But the clouds eventually lifted and I came up with some pretty awesome new designs. I just picked them up from the printer this afternoon and I will spend the evening scoring, folding and packaging them all up. They'll be posted on my etsy shop soon, but if you are in town, please come by my table at Got Craft? and say hi! I'd love to meet you.

smith's minted rose lip balm

Thanks to this lady, I discovered my newest & most favorite-ist lip balm. It's shiny but not overly so and my lips are uber-conditioned. I would rarely describe my lips as kissible, but smear some of this stuff on and I'm ready to pucker. I love it. Also, cute tin. I admit that I was swayed by the vintage-looking tin.

is anybody out there?

Uh, so I let this blog slide for a bit and I didn't think anyone really noticed. Until I got a sweet comment from AraJane...so I'll try to keep things up to date and post here on a more regular basis. But the truth is, it's hard to keep up so many blogs, especially when I've discovered a love for Twitter and Tumblr and have regular writing gigs with ReadyMade and Poppytalk. We'll see how it goes!

Oh, and like the little blog refresh? It's really just a tweaked sneak peak at a new card design that will hit the etsy shop in the next month or so. And you have to click over to the Spring Dance in the sidebar because that video & song is freakin' amazing. I'm now on the hunt for reverse saddle shoes and a tight suit. Well, at least the saddle shoes.

More later, I promise!
