We have so many cute little quails running around our neighborhood that I wanted to make one:

I’ve had such a great time working on my latest cut paper projects for
my sister’s first baby! They’re my biggest yet (poster size!) and
feature this Marie Antoinette inspired character that I also blogged in April and May ’09. I’ll post the finished products here just as soon as I add the last finishing touches.

This Etsy-style witch was inspired by all the witches I loved as a kid including Samantha from Bewitched, Wendy from Casper the Friendly Ghost and the Wicked Witch of the West from Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz. I had just a tiny piece of the damask scrapbook paper I used for the ghosts and saved it for the right project for a year! Everything is made from hand cut paper with a bit of ink on the ghosts’ faces and acrylic paint for the ghost dust.
