My Papercuts

Hi all 

Today I thought I would share with you all another craft I do, I had always been interested in Paper cutting and loved seeing all the different creations.

So my paper cutting journey started with just a starter kit which included everything I needed to get into this wonderful craft.

After these I was surprised how well I did them so I got stuck in with other parts from the kit, as I was using the kit I also looked into other paper cutting designers one of which I already knew of as I purchase a lot with her which is Crafty Hana.

 Then I came across Wild Child Designs and I fell in love with these designs as there right up my street, So I made a wish list and started to purchase the one's I really liked first and again could not wait to get stuck in and cut.

Here is the first big design I cut

I then went on to doing more and here they are

I have also got other designs by other talented designers including Quirky Crafts and here is one of them I cut 

I absolutely love paper cutting and find it so relaxing, I will admit though I haven't done any for a while and starting to get itchy fingers to do some more designs which I have purchased. All of these paper cuts have been designed by the people mentioned I just do the fun and tricky part and that is cutting to make them come to life.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing what I have done so far and I look forward to doing more designs and sharing them with you all.

Galaxy Mini Canvas

Hi all 

I hope everyone is well and enjoying there day, I am having a lovely day and been spoilt for my birthday :) 

Today I am going to share with you all one of the new makes I have done, I have done something like this before but last time I used Distress Inks this one I used acrylic paints.

So here we have my Mini Galaxy Canvas

Supplies used to make this little piece of art are as follows:

Dylusions Paints 

Black Gesso 

Mini Canvas

White Acrylic Paint

White Gel Pen 

I have been wanting to get into acrylic painting for a while now and found two fantastic channels on You Tube to follow and watch their beginner acrylic tutorials on You Tube by Painting with Jane and The Art Sherpa, I would recommend watching either of these to anyone wanting to give it a try as they go through it step by step from the beginning to the end.

I am hoping to do a lot more on canvas as there is a few paintings i would love to try after watching Cinnamon (The Art Sherpa) showing how to do them from start to end.

I hope you like my galaxy canvas and it gives you some inspiration and motivation to give it a go :)
