Cutout Books framed artwork

This week I have been busy making a framed piece of work for my colleague and friend Stu for a wedding gift to him and his wife Jo. They both love books so I thought I'd make them a book themed artwork along the same lines as my Butterfly wall art.

I used thick cartridge paper and cut out 9 shapes of opened out books, then I made thin paper pages and glued them behind the cartridge paper books. Next I selected some vintage music sheets with text on them to use as the background. The whole thing was then framed in a deep box frame.

If you'd like me to create a similar piece of wall art for you then please do not hesitate to contact me!

 

Music Paper Flowers

I decided to make some little and large paper flowers for card making and maybe other collagey projects. I used some music sheets I had bought, and some other translucent and cartridge paper, beads and sequins. Watch this space to see what I use them on!
