February Valentines

February 22, 2015

I finally managed to get some photos of Doug's latest diminutive cut-paper creations. Above is the "Special Delivery" Valentine which he made for Adeline this year. It is made from white card stock and it is three inches tall. 

For me, Doug made a "Bird on a Wire" with a tiny, glittery heart in it's beak. It is one and three-quarter inches tall.  My favorite of all his paper creations? The tiny paper sandals, below.  As you can see, they are quite elderly, with lots of foxing. He made them about thirty years ago, on an airplane. He was in Business Class, flying to some far-flung meeting, and while the man sitting next to him did serious business work, Doug took out an index card and an Exacto knife and made these. Oh, they are darling.

He makes such wonderful, whimsical things.

What brings me joy - My daughter, her husband, and, OMG, my granddaughter - and they live a mere twelve minute drive away. I’m lucky. And thankful.

* It’s a Flag! By Doug! *
 
We both like making flags, each in our own way. I’m loving this latest one from Doug. It’s an awesome little flag - only 10" wide x 5.5" high, made of tiny pieces of card stock which Doug coats

More textile bundles, waiting to become …
