Festive Papercutting with Lucy

Lucy was back for another Festive Papercutting workshop today, helping create beautiful lanterns, cards and gift tags.

Using very sharp blades against a soft craft mat it required lots of concentration!

The tree lanterns are lovely with small birds and rabbits amongst the tree trunks.

When fingers needed a rest from using the knives, Lucy taught everyone how to make little origami stars.

Thanks to everyone for coming.

Festive Papercutting with Lucy

Lucy returned to Treetops today with a Festive Papercutting class.

There were options to create lamps and cards.

Lucy had put together some great templates for everyone to work on, from baubles to polar bears and mistletoe to reindeer.

During the day you go through several blades as it's really important to keep the point sharp to create sharp neat lines.  Especially for these Christmas trees and reindeer.  We also used self-healing mats, which are really important to protect your surfaces.

Lucy will be back at Treetops in 2019, let me know if you would be interested in joining the mailing list for her new dates.
