good to be home!

I am back from Phoenix and had a blast. It was good for me too. I can get so discouraged sometimes but coming to shows like Phoenix just inspire me to cont. on with Nanamation artwork. I will most likely return next year. I really enjoyed Phoenix Comicon. It is def. one of my better shows.

Among other things I finally got around to finishing John's baby blanket. I started to crochet this thing last year. It was my first time crocheting a blanket so it has some imperfections. I wanted to sew a fabric to the other end but decided to just leave it as is. Maybe the next blanket.

Asian Heritage Festival

The Asian Heritage Festival last Sat. was great. I had a great time. It was a little to hot for us but had a good time. We bought our own shade tent instead of renting so it worked out great.

There were ton of booths and food. I got Korean BBQ to which was yummie...mmmm..Korean BBQ.

Here is a picture of my booth




And I HAD TO TAKE PICTURES of these 2 adorable dogs in kimono outfits!! AHHHH!!!

Finished my print

Finalized and finished my print. Its a Korean Girl in a "hanbook". If I were to get a hanbook I would want something like this. Something w/some crazy floral prints!

Nanamation this week...

So Nanamation has been really busy. I have a show coming up this week at the Asian Heritage Street Celebration. I am very excited and it will be my first year.

I am happy that I was able to get my 2 new shirt printed for the show. It is a lot of production work of ordering and printing but I made it in time! Here are a few other things I have been up to.

Rolling up shirts...






Making price tags. I wanted to find a better way of showing and cute way of showing prices. Usually I'll jsut cut up some paper and tape it but wanted something "better". So I got some felt paper and foam board. DUDE foam board rocks!!!!! You can cut it, draw on it and hot glue them!!! So RAD!!!




And some bags and flyers for my print backings

My Shirts Came In!

I finally got my shirts last weekend! They came out great. I'll be posting on my site later for purchase.

Passed out lion....

My little lion passed out. Whats funny is that her head is hanging out of her bed. Sometimes its totally out of her bed and it touches the floor. haha. Tell ya..she LOVES her red bed!!

Boston Cream Cupcakes!

Been dying to try this recipe...Boston Cream Cupcakes. Its basically cupcake w/custard inside and dark hard chocolate on top. mmmmm....mouth is getting watering. But Id say it was a success. I would def. make it again!
