Beatice Coron- paper cut-outs

In awe of Beatrice Coron's work! She creates magnificently intricate pieces of art by cutting silhouettes from paper in delicate patterns. Such detail! I love the cut outs, and the style in her books. I seem to be drawn to the cut-outs with hot-air-balloons in them and zentangle-like patterns, almost a Jasper Morello style. She uses her technique across other media, such as metal, to create some great public art too, such as benches, murals, fences etc..

Em's Fireman Sam and KISS Bookmark


Well further to my previous post on the Wicked Witch of the East bookmark I have created more of my own bookmarks with polymer clay based on ideas from 'My Bookmark' Etsy page. I love them! This one I did for my cousin who is a firefighter. I couldn't think of anything interesting or witty to put on the bookmark part. Then I thought, Fireman Sam! He turned out great! I also made some Kiss boots with silver glitter. :( I still think the Wicked Witch of the East is the best and made another of those for Christmas presents.

Em's Wicked Witch of the East Bookmark


I have posted about these awesome bookmarks before and had to make them myself! The Wicked Witch of the East is such a great idea for a bookmark. I got the idea from 'My Bookmark' Etsy page. I used white polymer clay and painted it and added glitter to the shoes. The hardest thing was getting both legs the same. I just didn't know what to put on the bookmark part. When I came across the death certificate I knew it was perfect so printed it and used tea bags to discolour it! Done! I am so going to make these for everyone for Christmas! I want to have a go at some other ideas and tailor each one to personality! I have already started making firemen boots for my cousin who's a firefighter.
