About jenincmyk

JenInCMYK is the affectionate one-word pen name of a girl in love with paper, color, and design. Practically growing up in thrift stores and flea markets has made recreating special one-of-a-kind treasures a sort of mantra in her art. Jen’s unpretentious Iowan roots inspire a cheeky, never-too-serious Midwest charm; a love of texture, the outdoors, and of course, food!

Sure, Jen! I was bummed about "losing" last night, too...but, I'm consoling myself with the theory that maybe they are selecting fewer designs lately to save some good ones for our storefronts later this year! I only hope that I qualify to get one - can't wait to hear what Minted's plan for that will be...

Nostalgic Knot is so great...maybe you could do an illustration of how to tie a shoe for a nursery print...we could sure use that in our house! :)

Hi Jen, thanks for the kind words. I felt so rushed with my designs. I wished I could've worked out a few kinks in a couple of them. With the holiday crunch, I am seeing most of these designs for the first time. Sorry I didn't get to yours sooner, but you do nice work, and have strong contenders. Good luck in the challenge!
