  Step 1

  I decided to gather a few materials from my “leftovers” pile to see if I can get the right colours for a cut out collage type of artwork…..

• 

  Step 2

  … and I remembered that I had a few shikishi boards (decorative calligraphy boards) from Daiso (¥100 shop) a long time ago.

  Step 3

  I went online to see images of Gachapin and see if I can make a nice cut out. I started with the main body and arms, followed by his tummy area, which was just layered pink cardboard paper over peach magazine paper.

• 

  Step 4

  The eyes were basically black cardboard paper and some white paper from the magazine.

• 

  Step 5

  I also had leftover faux chiyogami from a ¥100 shop, so I decided to cut out the groups of flowers from the page and leave the rest for the next project.

  I placed everything on the shikishi and this is how it turned out
