Bye bye January...Hello February.

News & stuff!

Sometimes you'll find that the back of my papercuts are a bit of a weird colour. See the green? Well, I have some mounts that are a bit special and I like the papercut to fit perfectly within it so I take the mount and scan it in - this time with a bit of green paper over it - and print it onto my cutting paper, then draw my design over the print of the mount. That way I know that the composition will look perfect when it's framed. I do the same with nearly all of my cuts to make sure it's centered correctly and will look nice as a finished piece...


Me? Well I'm poorly 'ick. AGAIN. I have zero immune system and seem to be constantly poorly at the moment. But I'm resting and between resting I'm still cutting away and have a cracking pile of cuts ready for Mr P to photograph them. Lots of miniatures too so I think a Tiny Tuesday will be on the cards in the next couple of weeks, yay!
Valentine cards are now in the shop but if you fancy cutting a papercut yourself there's some new templates that start at a proper daft £2.50 for a naughty one with a sweary word up to £7.50 for a lovey dovey gushy one. We are also trialing hanging hearts similar to the Christmas decorations using the Mr Darcy papercut design from a little while back with the two bunnies. I'm convinced that Shani is going to do a brilliant job and they'll be on sale very soon, and yup, they can be personalised too!

Some of you eagle eyed folk may have noticed this super new template added only moments ago ;)

'I love you' wreath - a florally ring of lovey - dovey perfection! Get yours here for £7.50


 
'I love you so very much' £7.50 from here.


and this design has also been used for our Valentines greetings card too! £2.70 from here.





Caution this one's a little sweary, but it's still spreading those loving vibes ;) and at only £2.50 it's a blimmin' bargain, I tell ya. Get yours here.



Hands up who's spotted this new Twinkle Twinkle template in the shop too?
Just like the sweary love one, this one comes with a pre-made Panda scribble effect, also included are just the words, so you can make up your own scribbly design, have fun with it!
Another £2.50 bargain! You'll find it here.




As well as adding all these new templates, lately Munch and I have been watching Celeb Big Brother in the evenings. He likes Michelle the best...


(My hand isn't that massive, btw, it's the perspective of the pic! ;) Munch however is that massive - 65kgs of fur)


I've also made this gorgeous original 'Safe'



Fairy Flutterby cards have also been added to the online store, these are so perfectly pretty. Get yours here for £2.70



The original is on ebay. (here)



And....Last but by no means least...

January has been a whirlwind month, the first workshops of the year, a tonne of new templates and originals, we had a mega sale which was a huge success, many thanks to you all for your continued support and custom! We love you all, we really do! ;)

I'm off to shove a tissue up each nostril and to play the sympathy card in the hopes of getting a slice of that cake I spied in the kitchen...*Sprinkles some love around*
