Maker's bio

Hi I’m Stacey and I’m owner and founder of Meet The Moon Designs. I specialise in making papercut art by hand from single sheets of paper. I’ve been doing this professionally for around 8 years, and really enjoy every part of the creative process. A lot of my work takes influence from botanicals, bold patterns and the natural world. I love making something intricate and beautiful from something so ordinary. I enjoy working with paper as it has an ability to transform into a delicate piece of art with the more cuts you make. Everything I do is by hand - there are no laser cutting machines here! I have enjoyed exhibiting my work locally and have been lucky enough to win runner up in the RSPB’s Nature in the City competition, and featured on Hochanda and Craft TV. I also enjoy appearing at demo days to explain to people what papercutting is, and attending numerous talks about the craft and it’s benefits. In addition to making art, I also run papercutting workshops all over Buckinghamshire and beyond. These sessions focus on promoting wellbeing through art, teaching others how therapeutic papercutting can be, fostering connections and enabling attendees to enjoy some down time. The workshops are ideal for beginners and seasoned crafters alike, and require no real creative ability as we work from pre drawn templates which I draw myself. Each session had a different theme and I’m there to give full guidance throughout. In addition to public workshops, I also run private sessions, charity and corporate events. In-office ‘crafternoons’ are very popular, not only for team building in the traditional sense, but to also offer screen free time amongst colleagues and to promote wellbeing in the workplace. I also have an online shop which sells printed greeting cards of my work, and beginners papercutting kits and templates for anyone who would like to have a go at home. If you’d like to talk to me about workshops or papercutting, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!
