Deer Car Thriller


Last year I had the opportunity to be pen pals with some kids from my friend Rama's grade school class. They were some of the more fun experiences in papercuts that I did all year. (Dinosaur vs. Robot; Watership Down; Giant Squid Attacks a Frigate) So I got a postcard this year from a boy who drew a Maglev train. I had to look up what a Maglev train was. I figured he'd like something with more of a speed theme. So I did a speeding car jumping over a Bambi. Now, the question is, is it going to hit the deer or breeze right over it?

Humbly Kneeling, Sweet Appealing


I've been buying up dome glass thing at thrift stores a lot lately to make a series of 3D papercuts. I keep buying the domes and not using them. My church had a Relief Society dinner a few weeks ago and I needed to do a centerpiece. I thought it would be the perfect time to create something with these jars. I didn't know it was a competition and I won for most creative! My goal for all these is to do heavenly visitations, and not just those from the LDS religion. I would like to do visitations from the Old and New Testaments, from Catholic saints and from non-Christian religions. Do any of you have favorite stories of people who have had a brush with the divine?
