I was just thinking the other day that I should probably update you guys on what I've been up to lately: photo shoots!
We've been "inviting" good looking people for test photo sessions. You can see more of what we've been doing here: https://www.facebook.com/WeddingFaeries
Then I remembered the very talented Dmytro and Iuliia from Ukraine contacted me about a blog feature some time back :). So I will show you their work in this post.

And a small interview:
1. Who is behind DreamPapercut?
Our names are Dmytro and Iuliia and we live in Ukraine. We love creativity and handmade things, because by looking at them you can feel the inner world of the person who made them. So this encouraged us to share our handmade works with other people. Our craft is creating hand-cut paper silhouettes, all from a single sheet of paper where every piece is interconnected.
2. Your paper artwork is amazing! How did you start creating them?Our story begins from the childhood, when we attended creative classes such as painting, drawing and paper craft. Growing up and studying at university we didn't pay much attention to creativity, but it always lived in our hearts.
Once, we created a greeting card with hand-cut elements for our friend’s birthday. It was the first realized step on how much creativity occupies an important place in our lives. After that, we took interest in paper cutting art and started creating paper cut silhouettes.
3. Where do you get your inspiration from?All of our works are made with love and a lot of soul. Each piece is inspired by nature, life and people who like our works. Our inspiration often comes when we go for walks in parks or the forests just to enjoy the nature surrounding us. Often we meet with our friends to help us relax and get new energy to create new original works.
4. Tell us 5 items you like the best from your shop.All paper cuts in our shop are unique, intricate and the most favorite for us.
5. What are your top 5 favorite Etsy shops?

6. What advice would you give to other Etsy sellers?
You should listen to your customers and use their advice and requests but do not lose your own way.
So what do you think? Pretty amazing huh? I haven't come across many artists that do this and I never even had the chance to see the silhouettes in person but I bet they'd make for a really unique anniversary or birthday gift{wink!}
