I am Dorothea, German and have been living and working in London over 20 years. I am interested in paper arts in particular. I have done a lot of knitting and creating cross stitch pictures. So far I have mostly done fine black paper cuttings with small scissors for use on cards or framed. I have also created a variety of paper cards for Christmas in past years. Now I feel ready to try paper art based on your templates, which I like very much. They are so life-like and beautiful.
