TWO years, 347 posts and lots and lots of Wonderful Visitors...

It's My BLOGAVERSARY....

It's amazing how much my blog is now a part of my life, I bet we all think about our blogs on a daily basis. It's communication that is way beyond the telephone or popping to your neighbours house. This social network can lift your spirits and push your creativity and desire to do great things, I am very thankful for the wonderful experiences I have had in the last two years. It is a very special place that I can see others creating masterpieces. Cards to me are my little works of art and I love to make them.

But I started this blog with a whole different purpose... Yes, I wanted to showcase some of my artwork... but I got very distracted I have searched through ton's of pictures for a piece to show you...

This is my Dimensional Paper Illustration, this piece is a portrait of my cousin and her son. It's fictional as in the scene was completely made up by me but I tried to show the people as real as they are. I drew each piece I needed onto my old craft robo programme at the time. I used some of my decorative papers to enhance the figures. I was by no means a great photographer and the details are not very easy to see but I hope you get the essence of the depth I created with foam and layers of paper. Even the little stick in the back pocket of the boy's jeans.

I framed it in a box frame and posted it off, my cousin really loved it and this is why my blog is called Paperbabe just if you ever wanted to know LOL!

So I have started a new blog Paperbabe's Drawing Board which will show my arty works, drawings and possibly digi stamps. It is not yet public but will be very soon I am working on the deets. I hope you enjoyed this journey as much as me and thanks as always for stopping by and your fantastic comments.
