This is the first piece for my Junior mini-thesis.
I am having so much fun doing paper cuts, you have no idea.
its a cut paper silhouette. Eventually I'm going to work more colors and layers into things, but this one was just to get into the swing of it.

Thumbelina by ~Muirgheilt. Cut-paper triptych of scenes from "Thumbelina" ... the tiresome old mole, Thumbelina nursing the swallow throughout the winter, and the making of her wedding trousseau. ( Featured by `Kitten-of-Woe )

This is absolutley beautiful :) The composition and use of a single colour with the white is remarkable. This is really really good, striking and effective work! I love it :)

Congratulations on the DD; it is well-deserved! :D And it's awesome to see another papercutter here! I also use an x-acto knife for all my cuttings. By the way, if you might be interested, I am the moderator of an active papercutting forum, and we would love to have you there (the others there are a really nice, helpful and very talented group of folks)!

This is so amazing. I love the pins in the mouth of the little mouse in the third panel!

That's great. How big is the actually piece and what did you use to cut the paper so cleanly? Exato-knive or something else?
