I have an entry in ...HI Jeri, these are wonderful. <br />I have an entry in a journal from 1830s England which mentions a 13-14 year old girl receiving a token of affection from one who esteems her as a friend. I wonder if this could have been the sort of thing she received? It was a bit early for Hallmark cards, but I think scrap booking and similar crafts may have been popular with young ladies at this time. I know they made cut out silhouette miniature portraits out of paper, of family members. <br />Do you think this cut-out craft may have been popular in england at the time as well?<br /><br />SusanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3997422903835675090.post-86428484008275340502011-02-11T23:07:23.378-08:002011-02-11T23:07:23.378-08:00Hello,

And I am hooked! (you should see the floor sometimes)!<br />I think I may try to paint...some day...when I get some courage..hee!<br />Thankyou for showing us how you do it!They are so beautiful!<br /> Lots of warm hugs, LinnieThe BUTT'RY and BOOK'RYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589576036037068551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3997422903835675090.post-52365536455869662012011-02-07T11:24:01.391-08:002011-02-07T11:24:01.391-08:00oh my my, these are enchantingly beautiful.

I cut out lots of hearts and after reading a previous inspiring post by you on the art of scherenschnitte, I've been cutting out a bit more intricate designs, mostly freehand, but nothing that comes close to your masterful pieces.

You've inspired me to give this technique a try, but as I lack not only the artistic ability to produce anything even close to your delightful pieces, I know I'll be hugely disappointed. I also don't have a clue as to how to go about painting in the folk art technique, let alone any other technique. Sad, that! I think schools should make art compulsory!
