Workshop 5

Here are the pictures from my most recent workshop at The Make Lounge.  Even though I provide templates, I always try to urge people to attempt their own design.  This week every single one of them did exactly that and with amazing results too! (Alexandra - if you're reading this - please email me a photo of your VR piece so that I can include it in the montage!!!)

Life is Good Papercutting - work in progress

Here are the most up-to-date pics of my most recent piece.  I've nearly finished it and then I'll have the challenge of mounting it and sending it safely in the post!

The difficult part of cutting this piece is the fact that I have to keep turning it and also I sometimes have to lean on the cut part in order to cut a new bit.  Usually I'll lay a piece of paper over the papercut (under my hand) to protect the part that's delicate.

Papercutting Workshop

Here are the gorgeous papercuts that my workshoppers made at The Make Lounge on Saturday.  Beautiful results for first-timers!

Workshop follow-up

I held a papercutting workshop at The Make Lounge on 11th August and one of the lovely ladies who attended was so inspired that she went off and made a gorgeous papercutting for her boyfriend.  I just wanted to share Jo's artwork with you.  I think it's fantastic - after just one 3 hour lesson - WOW!  Keep it up Jo. x

New Courses - mailing list

My new studio at my new house will be ready in a few weeks and the plan is to run some papercutting courses (and possibly some other crafty courses such as sewing, quilting, silver clay, knitting etc) in there.

If you would like to be added to a mailing list so that I can keep you informed directly about what will be happening in the wilds of Oxhey (!), please email me your information (ie name and email address) by clicking on the link below.

I promise only to email course details!
