st. louis and the crammed organisms show!

[hi.] We're on the road to California and we got to stop in beautiful St. Louis and see the last leg of the crammed organisms show at APOP records. Lots of the plushies had been sold, but I got to see the unicorn I'd made for the show that got posted last Friday. I also bought a really cute one- a fuzzy skeleton dragon I re-named Bone-regard.









^^^WOOT!!^^^

The show was crazy awesome, and I can't wait to get my copy of the book. I thought that just my cupcake girl was on the cover, but Jason (KillTaupe) added Aldous too! Mustaches and monocles for all! I'll post a picture of the book when I get it in the mail.

We took a TON of pictures from Georgia to our current location (northern Texas) so those'll be up soonishly. 2 more days til L.A.!

updates on your updates

Since leaving Ringling, the interwebs have been few and far between. We sneak into Panera to steal their wifi because my house no longer has an internet or phone connection. It's been so bad, Ben and I got blackberry's just so we could check our email.

It looks like I won't have any significant updates until I have a job/house/thinger, so ...yeah.

I did get the sewing machine though, and I'm currently working on making a patterned cat. He's going to be big, about the size of my crammedorganisms plushies. Hopefully I can get some things into my etsy soon, too.

Oh yeah, and Iron Man was everything we hoped it would be and more. (Can you say Sam Jackson as Nick Fury? Hell yes.)

crammed weekend for plush making

These are my entries for the show in June, since I'm sending them off pretty soon. That's a cat sidekick, bear hero, princess bunny, and EVIL UNICORN. I like his pants. I'm sending along some stickers and business cards they can pop into goody bags, and use for promotion. I can't wait to see the show, it's going to be a bonanza'o'awesome. (I included the last picture to show scale- these are a bit bigger than my usual fare. Plus, this is my first successful pair of pants.)

screenshot-o-rama

Tell me some of those little kids aren't the cutest things you've ever SEEN? So what's up with all the screenshot-ty goodness? Just finished two websites, so I thought I'd show a little sneak peek. By sneak peek, I mean.. the websites, pretty much, minus the clicking. :)

Oh, and I sold one of my cupcake twins on Etsy! And my plushies for Crammed Organisms are almost done, too. (I'm working on a princess bunny right now as the damsel-in-distress.) Oh, and my interview with R/GA went really well, so here's a round of happy for all.

HOORAY!! Plushies for all June long!

I got accepted into the Crammed Organisms Show!! Both Felicia and I were accepted just today, so that's super exciting. I can't tell you how badly I needed some really good news. I'm working on my four plushies right now- a hero (bear-monkey-monster), sidekick (not a bear), and perhaps two evil henchmen (retarded unicorns).

Extra special thanks to LUIS for letting me know about the show! I owe you a serious high five next time I see you!

Now it's time to celebrate with some Snopp Dogg and Rage Against the Machine! And cookies!
