TastyLinks™ Saturday

Hey There Hep Cats and Hep Kitties:

It’s time once again to spread the Linky Love across the Galaxy with this week’s sampling of TastyLinks™:“All the good blogs wrapped up in one!”

I had an absolutely amazing time with the delightful Terri O on Terri O Radio this week. If you missed the live show, you can hear my two segments online here and here. We had a two part interview but I think Terri and I probably could have chatted for hours! We talked about carving out time for creativity, about finding inspiration and about why it’s important to be willing to make glorious mistakes. It’s a real craft dirt dishfest filled with snorts and hearty guffaws!

Jewelry Maven Ms Jennifer Perkins' Austin digs were featured on Apartment Therapy this week. Not only is she a gifted jewelry artist, she’s a decorating diva as well! Wait until you see the kitschy wonderland that is her fantabulous home! We’d expect nothing less from such a design wunderkind. She’s got some brilliant ideas for displaying your collections, finding inspiration and mining thrift shops, flea markets and yard sales to turn one woman’s trash into another woman’s treasure.

My good friend and Terrorific Tuesday Mastermind Alexa Westerfield won two costume contests this week! She’s so crafty it hurts. She works with DecoArt paints and they kindly sent me samples of some kick booty new texture products I can’t wait to explore. You have to go and see the videos for them right here.

I got an email heads up from Rachelle LaCroix with Scrapblog that they have a contest going on. Here’s the 411: “Wanted to let you know Scrapblog is doing a challenge with Digital Scrapbooking magazine for Digital Scrapbooking Day on November 1. Full details here, check it out! www.scrapblog.com/dsd.”

And now without further adieu...the gang from Crafty Bloggers has dished up a heapin’ helpin’ of tasty craft ideas for your perusal, so dig in!
