Kickstarter launched for mini zine This Creative Life – A Brand Seasons® Paper

A Kickstarter has launched for a brand new mini zine – ‘This Creative Life – A Brand Seasons® Paper’. Created by Sarah Robertson of These Are The Days – a branding studio based in the Scottish Borders, the campaign also includes Brand Seasons® Playdeck, a card deck with 48 prompts and practices to “help businesses and creatives craft a brand that feels like home,” the campaign notes. The printed duo of the zine and Playdeck are available for support separately or grouped together in the new Kickstarter campaign.

As an addition to the Brand Seasons® Playdeck, the staple-bound zine compliments the deck by featuring articles and essays on themes such beauty, branding and business. “There is also a poetry corner and maker stories, plus author, founder and musician interviews,” the Kickstarter notes. The zine is printed by Newspaper Club and aims to add depth to the project, aligning “with the themes of the cards so you can enjoy stories of creativity and seasonality, too,” the campaign notes.
