Lazy Days

Lazy Days is a simple poem about the lazy days of summer. 

Mini Zine July 2024

This 8-page pocket-sized zine was written for the #minizinejuly24 challenge from Blancisthecreative on instagram. The prompt for July 26 - 30 is Mixed Media Zine.  "The topic is up to you but think about different mediums you can use to make your mini zine! Like paints and collage or dried flowers and block prints!"

I made two versions of this zine, a digital and a physical one for the challenge. My choices for mixed media were digital and scrapbooking.  I used to do a lot of cardmaking, stamping, and scrapbooking years ago and remembered some birthday invitations I'd made for a friend. They looked like popsicles and had a bite out of the corner and were on a popsicle stick. I thought that would be perfect for a little poem about summer. The poem is simple in hopes my niece will have fun hearing it while we flip through the little popsicle shaped zine. The digital version can be viewed in browser on this page and that is what you will get if you download or purchase the physical version to be mailed. Check out this Instagram post to see the physical version.

How Do I Fold It Though?
