Ed Roth of Stencil 1 Apr 18, 2019

Show notes

Ever wanted to see your products hanging in the aisles of Target? Yeah, who hasn’t? Today’s Creative Queso Podcast guest, Ed Roth of Stencil1, is in Target stores right now and we are chatting all about how he got there.

Ed not only has product lines, but has also authored several books and licensed his images to companies like Plaid Crafts landing his stencils into stores like Michaels and JoAnns. Influencers and content creators often only get the one off chance to work with large companies on a campaign or project, but in this interview Ed and I talk about how to make those experiences lasting mutually beneficial relationships.

Stencil1, in my opinion, is responsible for making stencils cool again. Long gone are the stenciled ivy vines and geese in bonnets. Ed’s stencils are edgy and fun, think ice cream cones, muscle cars and my favorite classic monsters.

Not just Craftcation, Nicole also produces a vendor based event called The Patchwork Show, has her own podcast Dear Handmade Life, dabbles in illustration, designs and sell T-shirts made for ADD crafters like me that say “make all the things”.

Cassie Stephens Mar 29, 2019

Show notes

Cassie Stephens is the Mary Poppins of art teachers. As in she gets things done, but with a spoonful of rainbow sugar. This my friends, is not your average grade school art teacher. When Cassie is not sewing her own custom wardrobe with portraits of Andy Warhol’s iconic soup to wear during pop art week at school, you can watch her on You Tube, listen to her podcast, or follow along on Instagram with all her art class adventures.

Teachers, creatives, lady bosses, -- if you have an Etsy store, have experienced burn out or wondered what kind of camera equipment you need to start a You Tube channel there is something in this episode for you.

Swell Designer Mar 22, 2019

Show notes

Today I am chatting with content whisperer Alexa Westerfield AKA The Swell Designer and the boss lady at Swell Creative Media. Alexa and I chat about her amazing new free PDF, "One Piece of Content 25 Different Ways". There is not a creative content designer on the planet that does not need that kind of information in their back pocket. The never ending treadmill of creating content is hard wheel to get off of. Alexa and I talk about clever ways to repackage the content you already have, how crafters can work smarter not harder, AND how to drill down and find your benchmark content.
