I can't take photos of the framed pieces just yet... I let my camera go too long without a recharge... so here, instead, are scans of the four scherenschnitte that I finished today...
"Heart of My Heart", a departure from my usual style of white on black, I used old and naturally aged scrapbook paper at the back and added love poetry torn from a badly damaged book that was printed just after 1900, together with my hand-cut silhouettes of a man and a woman... who just happens to be holding the sweetest old pressed flower in her hand...
"As the Deer"...
"Plumage"...
"Little Girl in Paradise", her silhouette is affixed to a print of old caligraphy embellishments...
I hope to get these listed in my shop this evening or tomorrow, but I'll also gladly make them available before hand if you are interested.
Happy Friday to you all!

What beautiful work, Beth!
Beautiful!
Beautiful!!! So unique!
I LOVE the little girl in paradise and the first one with the man and woman. So much fun. I tried doing a heart that I found a pattern for online. I decided that I needed a better exacto knife. Whenever I see your work, my fingers just itch to be equally creative. Guess I'll stick to the cross stitch for now :)
