Rose and Bea's Papercuts

Rose and Bea's Papercuts Papercut artist and fundraiser. I have twin girls, Florence and Beatrice. I started Rose and Bea's in her honour. I create bespoke papercuts. Mel x

My name is Mel, and I run my registered small business from home in Norfolk, alongside being a full time mum to my little girl, Florence. Very sadly, our beautiful daughter Beatrice passed away when she was 4 days and 16 hours old due to a rare genetic condition affecting 1 in 50,000 babies, thus leaving us heartbroken, and our family incomplete. To channel my grief through my love of art and creativity, to show Florence a positive role model, and to raise money for some wonderful charities. All designed and drawn by hand, and handcut by scalpel from single sheets of quality paper. Every piece I create from hand is completely unique, made with care, love and memories of my daughter. I also dabble in watercolour, calligraphy and embellishing mdf. Whatever takes my fancy! Money raised so far.....

4louis £1166.25
The Sick Children's Trust £100
Cancer Research £30
Local personal charity £55
SANDS £30

Totalling £1811.25
.............and counting! We have also donated equipment to the hospital we stayed at, and to mothers in need, and i donated 14 inches of my hair to The Little Princess Trust. If you have any queries, questions, or would like to order/discuss a bespoke piece of handmade artwork, please don't hesitate to drop me a message.

A commission which was completed before christmas. The customer asked for this beautiful quote, along with a scottish thistle or two, and allowed me to use my creativity to create the layout of the piece. I really love how the colours look together!

Sweet little autumnal bunny from yesterday.

Last night Alfred woke himself at 10 as he coughed and some milk went down the wrong way during a feed, that was him up then until 2am 😭 thankfully the other haf took that shift until I came down at 2 to resettle him. He's a monster with sleep sometimes!

His sleeping habits, along with another house move mean that I dont get as much time with Rose and Bea's as I'd like, but I'm determined to start it back up properly next year. For now I'm just doodling whatever I fancy 😊

Evening!

I hope all you lovely mummies out there had a lovely mothers day. We had a busy one, I recieved some lovely flowers and chocolates, and a big book about bee's (of course!) 😄

For anyone who found mothers day challenging, angel mummies like me, or anyone missing their own mum, I hope it wasn't too difficult a day 💖

This is something I made for my mum. Unfortunately my rubbish phone camera really doesn't do justice to all the little details, but I hope you can see that they are poppies.

Something a little different 😄 leave it a like if you like it and it may be something I can offer to order in the future!

Evening 🐝

As mentioned in my earlier post, my welly portraits are now available to order 😊
I started offering these this time last for in the run up to mothers day and they were a hit!

These are not prints. Each portrait is hand painted using Windsor and Newton watercolours, and highly pigmented Ecoline watercolour inks for a vibrant finish on cold pressed 300gsm watercolour paper.
They make a wonderful gift!

I paint all the wellies to your specifications, any colour patterns, pets, quotes etc, just ask and I will do my best to accommodate.

I can fit to to 4 family members onto an a5 painting, these are £15.

And for larger families, an a4 painting is £20.

😊

Hello everyone!

It's been a long time since I have posted. I've been busy with this cheeky chap!

Motherhood after loss is a hard one, probably more than we all realise until it's us, but that doesn't stop this little boy brightening our lives with his beautiful face every day! Florence absolutely dotes upon her little brother, and Beatrice will be guiding him into a wonderful little person from afar 🌠

He's now 5 months old, and I'm hoping to start back with some artwork again. I'll start with offering my welly portraits for mothers day I think, possibly some other watercolour quotes and things too.
Papercutting is taking a back seat at the moment, but I do have something else in the pipeline, something that's taking a lot of practice and commitment, but that will hopefully be a long term venture for me 🤞

Thank you for your continued support 🐝
