March Giveaway - Win a copy of Bespoke zine (issue 2)

Lookee here, this is THE best new zine ever. Seriously. And the lovely Jess (of Epheriell Designs) has given me a copy of the latest issue of her baby, *bespoke* to give away to one lucky reader of my blog!



I am in love with this little zine. *bespoke* is a full colour Australian print zine (it's also available as a digital download, but I prefer the touchy-feely paper thing lol), published by Jessica Van Den (the gorgeous lady of EpheriellDesigns.com) and features a huge array of Aussie and international crafty types.

Issue two is crammed full of goodness such as:

-Thrive – Kimono Reincarnate
-Beautiful Blogs – An interview with Pip Lincolne of Meet Me At Mike’s
-From Corporate to Creative – how 3 women did it!
-Vintage Crafts – Rag Ruggin’
-Tutorials – How to hand-carve a sweet birdie stamp!
-How to Find your Vintage Era
-Autumn Lovin’ – a selection of gorgeous Autumnal goodies – to win!
-Bespoke Beauty
-And much, much more!

Want a little sneaky peak? Here you go!

It is seriously crammed full of crafty goodness.

So, what can you do to win? It's pretty simple really! Just leave a comment here and tell me about your favourite art and/or craft, and I'll pick a random winner. Draw will close 24th March, so start commenting!

Meanwhile, I now have to go make a necklace for my daughter to give to her friend for her birthday tonight. Nothing like leaving it to the last minute, yes? lol

Hi! This does look a good zine. I adore the pink petal dress! I grew up in Australia, but now live in the UK. I am a poet turned mixed media artist. Nice to "meet" you and thanks for the introduction to Bespoke.

That is a beautiful mag cover. I sew and love paper craft too, but I'd really love love love to be arty enough to do watercolours...but nothing I draw/paint looks like the thing it's supposed to.

I would love to win the Bespoke giveaway! I just discovered the vine the other day in fact, and the cover is gorgeous! I love to sew (I make kids clothes), and I adore collage. My kids and I are always at the dining room table either making collage or drawing.

That gorgeous cover illustration says it all! My favourite art/craft activity AT THE MOMENT is calligraphy on hand decorated paper. Ask me next week & it'll be something different!
