Beautiful/Decay: Cut Paper, 3 Parts, 9 Artists

Beautiful/Decay has a great piece on paper cutting up. It features 9 artists: Bovey Lee, Peter Callesen, Chris Natrop, Georgia Russell, Hunter Stabler, Kako Ueda, Natasha Bowdoin, Emma Van Leest, and Andreas Kocks. I so want to learn to paper cut like this some day: It’s awesome! And trees, I can never get enough of cuts with trees in them: Check out the article here: Part 1, 2, 3 (via Paper Forest)

As I mentioned on Twitter, as soon as I saw the template Cindy posted today, I knew I’d have to try it out tonight. I made one rider into a girl by adding a ponytail. Think of them as twins heading into dinobattle. Heh. Now I have “Wonder Twins, activate” in my head. And, I couldn’t help but think of Dresden and good ol’ Sue when I was cutting these out.

Scherenschnitte: frames and embellishments (and a couple owls)

As I mentioned in a previous post, I’m starting to work my way through two papercraft books. I started with templates for frames and embellishments to add to pictures, scrapbooks, cards, gift bags and boxes. The templates are by Nicole Lombardo and the project is from Paper Cuts.  Here’s a snapshot from the book via Nicole’s blog: Pretty aren’t they? Mine aren’t as crisp as that. I need to work on steadying my hand more. And I »

Two new paper craft books

Woot! My freaking sinuses have cleared up enough that I can finally flip through my two new paper craft books. Yay! (Still don’t trust myself to pick up the exacto yet though. Vision still kinda wonky. I might cut off my thumb! Eek! ) I ordered Paper Cuts after seeing it on Cindy Ferguson’s blog. And really, ever since she posted the Alice tea party centerpiece, I’ve been itching to make it. Look how pretty it is: »
