Paper Cutting Templates - Bloom: 50 Decorative Papercut Patterns
Congratulations to the winners - Dana Norris, @thejordanpowers, and @suze727!
Would you like to learn a new paper skill? Paper cutting is a hobby I've had my eye on for quite a while. The 50+ patterns in the new book, Bloom: 50 Decorative Papercut Patterns, are mighty pretty and just the enticement I need to give it a try!
Intricate and lovely describes each one of the designs created by Choi Hyang Mee, a creative talent in Korea with three best selling paper cutting books to her credit.
A neat thing about this book is that no tracing/scanning of images or purchasing special paper is required. The templates are printed on one of three different paper stocks so they are what you cut directly.
You will need a cutting mat and craft knife to get started, then detach a page from the book and cut along the template's lines. Like anything, practice makes perfect.
The designs are great for framing or can be used on cards, as mobiles, or even as window displays.
There's a nice variety... you'll find holiday wreaths, Happy Birthday and Thank you messages, as well as LOVE lettering for Valentines and wedding decor.

ReplyDeleteOh this is a great thing - I love the designs, even though they seem a bit too much for a beginner such as I am. I would love to win a copy of the book. Thank you for offering this great gift. geminidolly at yahoo dot com
ReplyDeleteI would love to win a copy of this book. Some of the designs are very delicate and it will stretch my skills.
ReplyDeleteI do lots of crafts but this is one I haven't tried.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea! The picture that you showed at the top of the page, showed cut paper inside a circle. That circle can be a tuna can, and the paper objects inside can be either quilled or cut paper. The deeper cans can have an object of greater depth, or be cut in 2 down the middle, making a "tall half-tube" for long thin objects, either vertical or horizontal. You have gotten my creative juices flowing...just writing this, I can think of things to do with the paper and the cans... Thanks for the ideas!
