This paper is a 65# cover, which is thicker than your typical bond paper.
Macro Mondays theme Paper Art
Playing with coloured paper and scissors to try to create some paper art.
The cuttings are 4cm at their widest and so should fit within the groups requirements.
Happy Macro Monday 🌸
Again it was a lot of fun to play with this MM theme! Paper seems to be all around us, and there would be many more ideas to choose from.
I wanted to stay simple this time but couldn't refuse a little touch of colour and Bokeh balls 😉.
HMM to all participants 💙💙💙

Remember the way you made me feel
Such young love but
Something in me knew that it was real
Frozen in my head
Pictures I'm living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories are playing in my dull mind
I hate this part paper hearts
And I'll hold a piece of yours
Don't think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you won't forget about it
Everything is gray under these skies
Wet mascara
Hiding every cloud under a smile
When there's cameras
And I just can't reach out to tell you
That I always wonder what you're up to
Pictures I'm living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories are playing in my dull mind
I hate this part paper hearts
And I'll hold a piece of yours
Don't think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you won't forget
I live through pictures as if I was right there by your side
But you'll be good without me and if I could just give it some time
I'll be alright
Goodbye love you flew right by love
Pictures I'm living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories are playing in my dull mind
I hate this part paper hearts
And I'll hold a piece of yours
Don't think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you won't forget

Macro Mondays: #Paper
Thank you very much for your visit and for taking the time to comment! Much appreciated!
Paper wasps (Polistes sp.) get their common name from the paper-like material out of which they make their nests. Paper wasps are sometimes called umbrella wasps, after the shape of their distinctive nests.
Paper.
I only looked at the theme for Macro Mondays this morning not really intending to do anything. But the theme is Pastel and that lends itself to all sorts of ideas.
Flowers first came to mind… and I love photographing those as you probably have realised. But then I guessed there’d be a lot of lovely ones in the group today so I tried to think of something different.
I narrowly saved you from a close-up of a peach flannel :)
This is a shot of three pieces of cream laid paper folded back on themselves. I’ve never done any of this type but I have liked a lot I have seen on Flickr. I love the gentle tone poems you get - all shape and soft colour gradients… bliss.
Anyway this is my first attempt at the genre. Half the work was done in the setup - sunlight, two lamps and a torch all played their part. But, as encouraged by the theme description, a considerable part of the performance was done in the processing, tweaking all sorts to get a soft-coloured high-key result without blowing the highlights. I used curves to get it looking right.
The whole image is cropped to less than three inches (the whole teardrop shape if you could see it was about that), so we are within the guidelines.
I enjoyed this more than I expected. It was fun. So I might try it again :)
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the tone poem. Happy Macro Mondays!
