V-Day 2014: From Me to H

A space-bunnies themed hand cut concertina card…

…with a sticker on the envelope from my 'I've Always Wanted To Show You' collection… 

… and finally, I made him a little felt raccoon filled with beans so he stands up… 

 … and I wrapped him up in brown paper with another self-made sticker… 

… and sent them off to Germany ❤

My 'I Love You' bunting was in the window…

I shared a table with cutie-animal illustrator Karl Newson

Space Bunnies First Exhibit

Space Bunnies will be up in the Cherry Leaf Coffee House for the month of February 2014.
Below it sits my third cut of Do More Of What Makes You Happy.

The private view was held on 7 February:

Cutie Creature print

I'm thrilled to have a large print of these cute creatures which I've admired for a long time. It's by Köln-based freelance motion-designer André Kniepkamp. I met him in 2009 whilst visiting Köln. He's a dude. This print makes me smile every time I look at it – it's such a lovely, friendly cuddly hug! It reminds me of how I hugged my cat!

Space Bunnies

Finally, my epic January papercut is complete!
This piece took ~8 hours to cut out over two weeks. However, prior to cutting, I spent countless hours originating the idea and preparing a cutting template.

I even filmed myself cutting it and prepared a time-lapse documentation, which you can watch here:
