I am so happy to have discovered Nikki McClure. The more I read about her, and the more I look at her beautiful creations, the more in love and inspired I become. Her unique artwork is made from paper cut-outs. She uses an x-acto knife and carves out incredibly intricate designs from a single piece of paper.
I just love the feeling of these images. She captures simple, precious moments of everyday life, which also evoke feelings of a much deeper, more complex beauty and symbolism.
If you have a minute, watch this little video to see how she makes her amazingly intricate paper cut-outs. It's really interesting... Her art, her small independent business, her entire lifestyle, it's all so inspiring!

See her website here. She has so many incredible posters, calendars, books and cards. I Especially love this journal (which I just ordered online).
Like I said before, I'm so happy to have discovered her!
