Paper Cutting

CutAwayHalfCircles01-580A friend has been egging me on to buy a gadget called the Silhouette Cameo. You can think of it as a printer, but instead of a print head it has a little blade that can cut through paper, up to pretty thick cardstock. It comes with a surprisingly powerful editor, like a baby version of Adobe Illustrator. It’s surprisingly easy to use. This is my First Thing Ever, cut from a single piece of paper. I think this is going to be a lot of fun! The inspiration for this design came from Paul Jackson’s wonderful The Pop-Up Book.
