Hi all. Just wondering if anyone does paper cutting? Would you like to share your work or has anyone got any templates? I've just ordered myself a kit to get started :)

    Oooh, I'm on the look out for a starter kit for this - where did you get yours, Samantha? :)
  • I do paper cutting not had much time recently due to get married in just over 5 weeks :)

    Try https://www.facebook.com/groups/414178285344200/

    they have free templates which aren't for resale :) You can get starter kits from Paper Panda she is amazing! It is where I started just over 12 months ago :)

    Thanks for the tip, Steph... It's such a beautiful craft... Something very delicate and elegant about it :)

    Congratulations on getting married - I'm sure once you get back from the honeymoon, you'll be itching to get back to the crafts, after the break :D

    Thank you I'm itching already but don't have the time or patients at the moment :)

    You do have to be careful with the blades though I've cut myself twice so far and it stings like a cow! :eek:

    This is one papercut I've done

    Wow - those are beautiful, Steph... Especially love the Dr Seuss one - looks very intricate! :D

    Yes, I can imagine that cutting oneself is an unavoidable risk... Supplies of plasters at the ready :rotfl:
  • Thats really good! Yes I bought my starter kit from paperpanda :) and I follow them on facebook. I did a little practice, I'll post pics later :) yours are amazing steph!
