Music Papercut

I was sooooo amused earlier when I drew an address on Postcrossing and got a nice person in Russia whose hobbies are... music (!) and papercutting (!!!). That's... kind of niche, but of course, I was super happy! I don't usually make papercut cards for postcrossing, simply because that's too much work, but in this case I was willing to make an exception.

Not very detailed, but hey, it would be a shame not to send a papercut, right? I didn't find my good scalpels so I had to use one that wasn't really sharp anymore, and it kind of shows, but whatever. This took me a bit over an hour as it is. XD At least I used decent paper (not silhouette paper, but a very good alternative intended for... lamination?!?, but also very stable - it works great!) and decent spray glue. The background is simple white cardboard. I'll be mailing this in an envelope because I don't trust Deutsche Post with my art. XD

Oh I'd definitely put it in an envelope to post, it would be such a shame to have it arrive messed up when you've put all that work into making it so fun. She's going to love it!
