Discover the magic of pop-ups in this fun and creative introductory workshop!
 
Whether you’re looking to create unique cards, miniature books, or stand-alone projects, this workshop will introduce you to simple pop-up mechanisms that can be transformed into your own exquisite miniature worlds.
 
During the workshop, you’ll have the chance to:
 
  • Learn the basics of pop-up mechanisms
  • Create your own designs using drawing, painting, or collage techniques
  • Experiment with repurposed materials like children’s books, greeting cards, magazines, and catalogues
 
Sue will provide plenty of materials, including paper, glue, watercolours, and basic cutting tools, as well as a collection of collage supplies to inspire your creativity. 
Feel free to bring along your own paints, drawing materials, or collage resources if you have something special in mind.
 
We will provide aprons to protect your clothes or you can bring your own.
Do bring along any old books, cards or images that you'd like to incorporate into your designs.
 
This FULL DAY POP-UP PAPER WORKSHOP will be held in the peaceful setting of our Blended Monkey studios on the Cambridgeshire/Norfolk border.

    "I am an artist and printmaker living in West Norfolk.

    After twenty-five years writing professionally, with a career in both romantic and crime fiction, I embarked on a second career as an artist, originally working with mosaic, glass, papercuts and textiles before developing my love of printmaking.

    Self-taught, I now work primarily with lino, as well as exploring block printing, and creating pop-up cards and books.

    I am particularly fond of the technical challenges that printmaking and paper engineering present and love the colour and texture of the raw materials as well as drawing and creating the end products. There is a joy in creating which is as important as the finished item.

    A great deal of my inspiration is drawn from nature - my garden, the beach, walking in the woods, and my pets,  as well as the general chaos of domestic life."
