Why make/buy Handmade Goods

Crankbunny is a "Animation Director by day and paper puppet magic rabbit fish at night." Based in NY she makes quirky and beautiful "paper puppets" and popup cards.

She also made this great video about why she makes handmade.
Check out her video i just saw via city paper cut the craft blog.

Happy July 9th!

Hope everyone's 4th was fun!
Vermont was about 30 degrees cooler and with beautiful fireworks!

Also when i got back my MOO cards were waiting for me along with a little gift i had ordered for myself from Leaf People. :)


Lastly I wanted to share something that my husband just posted this on his blog. I really like Ira Glass and the show This American Life. It's a great video if you tend to get discouraged as a creative person ;)

Happy 4th!

Heading out to Vermont for the weekend to catch some fireworks with my inlaws and hopefully cooler weather.

Just had to show off my new buttons i recieved yestereday from busybeaver.net

My new little promos ... aren't they fun!?! My dog El Guapo already has one pinned to his harness :) The one that says "i bite" . hehe... he's a terrifying little lap dog....isn't he?



Anyways, still waiting on the moo cards ...and hoping to get picked by crafty bastards again this year. I had so much fun last year. i'm really looking forward to it.

Have a great weekend.
CHEERS!
