These new Christmas Tree and Snowflake paper cut images are at the printers this week to be made into holiday cards for the upcoming season. I thought I'd give you a little preview of what I'll have available at the Walkabout, craft fairs and at the stores where I sell my things and here on my blog starting in the beginning of November.
It is good to have some new items made to sell at the various sales opportunities coming up in the next few months.
I liked making these Christmas "Tree of Life" designs and Snowflake designs. Working with colorful paper, coming up with original, folk-style inspired images and symmetrical design is satisfying for me. I like the moment I unfold a new piece after cutting it for an hour or so to see if it works.
I love them! I look forward to finding out where you are selling them this fall.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bonnie! I'll let you know where I'm selling them in a blog post very shortly.
DeleteMay I make a suggestion? I really like these and I think the addition of another color as accents or border could enhance them. You have two colors ... remember the rule of three ...
ReplyDeleteFor example you could buy silver stars or other stick ons to add a third, complementary color
ReplyDeleteThanks for your feedback Danusha. I'll keep it in mind for future designs. I do like the number 3 and the balance that is usually achieved with it. These are simpler paper cuts and they have already been photographed so there's no room to change them now even if I wanted to.
