Who knew that such happiness is just around the corner. I must have clicked on a link somewhere and there I found myself in the amazing fun universe (okay, a website) of Stephan Britt. I surfed in using Safari and thus only saw a little tiny bit of the actual site, and yet I was still blown away. I immediately bought the Coloring CAN Be FUNNY! book and several stickers, just to realize about 3 minutes later that there was also this incredibly cute Good Frends t-shirt also available for sale, so I went for it. And so should you. If you still want to be my friend, please go to his site and order one of the "good frendship" starter kits. (It is just $17 and you can pay via paypal.)
I know you want it anyway, just making sure.
I had no idea that Stephan was also a friend of Nathan Jurevicius, our long time favorite from down under and the man who first told me about loobylu. (We all *love* her, of course.)
In fact, Stephan and Nathan turned out to be both part of fantastic contraption which I thought was an illustration agency, but which turns out to be a happy place and more of a friendship kind of organization. So power to them as well, and if you can not wear a t-shirt, because your entire torso is missing (including heart and soul), then you might still need a fantastic contraption 2002 calendar. You should probably get it before this year ends.
As mentioned before, all this discovery happened as I was using my Beta Safari browser. Little did I know that the SBritt.com site contained a huge portfolio (i mean pages and pages of goodness!) and interviews and other exciting things, like links and other cute stuff. I have not even clicked on the links yet, but I will now, so expect more reports back today.
Also, it turns out that Stephan is a fantastic writer and that his confirmation emails are just incredible. You get a taste of the goodness by reading the interviews and maybe signing up for his newsletter. (Which I still have to do.)
So, once again. Buy the "good frendship" starter set. Then report back. I am back to exploring. What a day.
that shirt is soooo cute!
