More random scherenschnitte

Dec 142009

It’s been a few months since I’ve gotten to work on any scherenschnitte.This weekend I finally got to work on some. I’m rusty.

I think I snipped a few of the flowers off in this one and the two little blobs on a bottom root are supposed to be mice. Er. Right…:

This Christmas gathering reminds me of a 50s sitcom:

This one is a Mexican Papel Picado piece to celebrate the Day of the Dead. They typically use tissue paper to create many of these for banners, but I just used regular paper. I didn’t have any tissue on hand. Next time.

I played with silver oragami paper for this faerie:

And lastly I cut out a bunch of werewolves and witches. I stacked them to scan them since it seemed silly to show each individually. Lost the dark purple cat though. Hmm…

The templates I used:

girl and dog (still looking for where I stashed the link)
family holiday
skeleton
faerie
werewolves
witches

Iz hiding

Dec 072009

Ruki had to have her yearly checkup at the vet this weekend. When we got home she fled to safety under the bed. The only thing is that when she “hides” her feet are usually sticking out. In this case, she felt the need to hold onto her toy but didn’t pull it under the bed with her. She must be of the mindset that if she can’t see you, she’s hidden. :P

This is adorable. :)
