A Free Wee Free Man...Gah that's a lot of E's

 

This here is an offcut - I say an offcut but he's a dinky little piece of paper perfection. He was part of the original Tiffany Aching official Discworld papercut that is now part of a series of prints that have been hand signed by Sir Terry Pratchett himself on each mount. (eeeeek!)
 

Rather than roll over him with my chair or chuck him in the recycling bin I have mounted the lil guy over a print that depicts part of the story that fades out towards 'his corner' so as not to detract from the superb shadow that he casts under the light. He now lives inside a black wood handmade frame and the Discworld official hologram and the Paper Panda engraved tag are on the reverse of the frame. The mount is signed by me, not PTerry, but we can't have everything.

Earlier in the week you had the opportunity to own this 'offcut'. ;)  If you purchased a Paper Panda papercut Pratchett print from the official Discworld site (all the P's!). Well one lucky person has done just that!

Congratulations to...

He is on his way to you m'dear. Enjoy!

And the winner is...

Hello!

On Tuesday we popped a giveaway up to win this here 'Mummy' papercut, made with my own Panda paws.

Reading through the nominations was lovely. They all showed how amazing each of your mums are. It was almost impossible to choose! 

The winner is...*drumroll please* 

 Carmel Clark. Nominated by Yvonne Jackson.

 'I would give this to my friend Carmel Clark. She is having a rough time at the moment. She has 3 children her son the eldest of which has Autism and Epilepsy and she has just received the news that he may not start school in September as planned, her daughters also have health problems, she has been working her socks off to make her children a sensory wall and never stops to take time out for herself (she's poorly at the moment and instead of resting as she has been told to do, she is still making stuff for the children). On top of all this her brother died 6 months ago suddenly following an Epileptic fit.She doesn't know what a lovely wonderful Mummy she is and I think something like this would help remind her that she is a Lovely Mummy to her 3 children x' 

Congratulations Carmel. *applause*
