Zines, Zines, Zines!

Wonderful zines that I have received in the mail over the past couple of months.
1. Sewon's beautiful photobook 'Floating Island' that came packaged with a illustrated notepaper with a written message and envelope sealed with a cute bow sticker, postcard and cat sticker. Sewon is a very talented photographer, check out her blog Maps and Fragments for her amazing photographic adventures around China.
3. One of my fave zines is Vanessa Berry's thrift shopping zine 'Vinnies' so I was thrilled to hear No.16 of her I am a Camera series was dedicated to her trip to Japan. A great account of observations from Vanessa's trip to Japan's Kyoto and Okunshima 'rabbit' island!
4. You might remember me mentioning the cool blog Bonjour Johanna in a past post? Her latest project is a colouring in zine titled; Dessine Moi Un Copain'. Copain means friend in french and I know this because the zine came with some sweet french phrases. I can't wait to get started on colouring in Johanna's cute polka dot pant Copains!
5. Kelly Zarb's 'Crafty Collage' zine is packed with super cute collage projects. Learn how to make collage; gift tags, cards and tote bags etc. My Life As A Magazine blog also got a mention in the resources section - Thanks Kel! Being a big fan of collage I just had to get this. It also came with a beautiful collage card, gift tag and collage kit!
