i read the news today oh boy...

i missed cutting by hand, so on friday i set myself a mini project...

i took note of the main headlines of the day, then described them in cut-out form onto an A1 piece of paper...

here's what happened...

(sorry the content is not all that cheerful, people need to start being a whole load nicer to each other so the news is not so god damn depressing)

how to show you care without being rank...

this may ring a bell with some old friends with good memorys; it is a rhyme i wrote years ago, which i then cut, all in order to show i care without saying any rank words (love, heart, soul mate, forever, bells- you get the idea) or including any heart shapes, flowers, or doves...

i was proud at the time, but it was created at the very start of my 'cutting career' and then later got distroyed by boisterous kittens... (this was a sad day)

so i recently remade/remodelled the non-rank design, in order to re-give as a gift (for some silly very-rank day last month... i forget the name of it), and to undo the kittens hard work...

"life is the means by which the universe understands itself"...

(Brian Cox. wonders of the universe. BBC2)

here are some new paper cuts for you to see. these were cut on the laser cutter so i had a lot more time and energy to draw. this is the same design displayed in a few different ways...

they are meant to be light shades, but you can understand them to be whatever you wish...
