Trial and error

Today I worked on some ideas for Christmas,

I like the process of ideas and design.

I just try some different techniques and see what works.

There is trial and error, sometimes it does not work,

and sometimes it is better than I expected :).

So here is how I started, mirroring words on the backside of painted paper:

And here is the result, first try, made a mistake with the Y, so drew it again.

I have added some details and am still working on the design, but almost finished..

So truly my idea, my mistakes and truly handcut, drawn and handmade!

I love this process.
