The first panel was folded in half and cut with scissors (like a paper snowflake) |
Cutting out the black panel...First with the exacto for the skull and then scissors to create the flowers, diamonds and hearts. |

First I started with a rectangular panel of tissue paper. I cut a simple scalloped edge around the outside w/scissors. |
I started cutting out Nicholle's name (with and a super sharp exacto-knife) and then a design developed above and below her name. |
I held my breath with every cut....If I had made a mistake I would have had to start all over...Yikes! |
