Having always loved the story of A Christmas Carol, I thought I’d immortalise it in cardboard-cutout form.
So, armed with a scalpel, a couple of bicycle lights, and a pile of A4 card, I set about weeks of cutting and propping up. I think the results are rather good!
Whilst I had lots of fun doing this, it’s worth warning anyone who wants to try something similar… this is really hard on your fingers; expect to get a few blisters. Having said that, you must suffer for your art, and suffer you will. Merry Christmas!
