De Toutes les Couleurs

I made this little craft last week-end.
It was more than time to use these colourful paper stripes, usually made for paper quilling and purchased long time ago.

I first started to make these paper beads, not knowing what I’ll do with them afterward.
And finally, things turned out naturally, when I collected this branch in the street.
Sometimes, I feel me like a magpie collecting everything… But that’s not so bad until I find a way to reuse, right ?

Regarding paper quilling, did you see the book cover made by Yulia Brodskaya illustrating Santa’s beard and hat ? Simply amazing !…

And I would like to thank Nicole for choosing my little pic for the ‘self-portrait contest’ she organised. A pleasant surprise !
You can have a look at it on her lovely blog

Each time I see rhubarb on a food stall, I can’t help but buy it.

That’s weird actually, because I’m not so keen on tangy fruits -even if rhubarb is a vegetable…

And the weirdest thing was to crave for a tart -an upside down one- that combines orange with rhubarb. Can’t really say that orange makes it sweeter, but I pretty liked that combination.

Thank you girls for your positive response to my last post.
I always feel uncomfortable coming back after a long silence, so thanks for being forgiving…

Back to the topic of the day: Paper cut.
Completed – finally !
Remember the Kia Ora paper cut I started weeks ago…well, now it’s done.

Of course, there’s still a couple of details to fix, like how shall I link these two sheets of paper, because stylish pegs are just temporary here… And I will probably trim a bit on the right side too.

I come back soon with a piece… to nibble this time ! ;)
