12 DAYS OF PAPERMAS


The build up to Christmas is my FAVOURITE time of year, and last year I wanted to set myself a little festive, creative challenge on my Instagram!

I decided to make a paper interpretation of each of the 12 Days of Christmas, in a mixture of flat papercuts and 3D paper sculptures, some more literal than others. It was quite a challenge, but I loved setting myself a design task ‘just for fun’…. Perhaps I’ll set myself another challenge soon!
