Mother's Day 2014

I tried to be a bit more free and loose with my cutting style this time. But it doesn't work like that with paper cuts. You can see at the bottom I've been too relaxed and made wobbly thicks and thins. Bad form. The trick is making a design that looks relaxed and fluid, but cut it out in a very controlled manor so as to define the design perfectly.

Alison Moyet Birthday Surprise

Dad and I surprised mum on her birthday with the news that we had booked seats at Alison Moyet's gig in Ipswich. As it was booked online I didn't get a physical ticket, so I designed our own. 
Mum was absolutely thrilled, I don't think I've ever chosen a better birthday present!

Birthday card for mum

My mum deserves nothing less than the finest, most elaborate birthday card I can possibly craft. 
Here I have experimented with making a card where the focal point is spread across the inside of the card, with the outside being blank. 



Here's a work in progress image – I'm cutting from behind this time.
