Paper etc 2013!

Following are some recent projects.

Framed art paper collage gifts for Australia Day, an image collage i made. The Birdy photo was lent to me by a friend. i illustrated the frame & text & picked scanned printed cut & paste the gum leaves.  

 Next up same concept but my Sister's Kitty son is the star! 

they just planted some tomatoes in their new garden hence the tomaters :) 

again hand illustrated border & text.

 & lastly of this series, our little 4 legged son in all his glory. Posing for the camera. 

a back ground to match our home, sea & roses. 

i had a blast making these, and i'm open to requests, can you imagine your loved fuzzball immortalized in a custom setting? hee hee Cute! Custom orders welcome direct to me! 

Next up something different to share:

Still paper related.
I love wrapping just as much as gifting, so thought i'd start sharing some of the standouts, keeping it brief.
So far this year: my niece: love the mix of colours & textures .. the "E" is a brooch i made.

 Wrap for the earlier Australia day pressies. neon brickline brown paper & aussie road sign tags.

 mail art wrap! the reverse of Valentines parcel for my Sis.  random fun-ness

Valentines day cards. for family.
a photo of my newest seascape (v-day gift from my fiance) & image from a cool vintage gem/jewel catalog book.

 My Friends birthday wrap! more from the vintage jewel book, some cool print outs from minieco (thanks love your work!) more feathers & brickline!

Just realised i forgot to record my christmas wrap for 2012. :(

i was really happy with it; imagine: a mix of  brown paper, woodgrain paper, neon brickline, white metal dove, neon star & heart ornaments on chains. 

That's about it again for now.

back soon with more updates.. Promises :) x x x
