Dancing Bear


It should be pretty obvious by now that I spend most of my free time either knitting, cooking, or sailing. Occasionally, I like to branch out into a different craft. I've dabbled in paper craft before, never to a large extent, but I'm always intrigued by what can be created with such a seemingly simple medium.

This time, my blog surfing took me to paper cutting. I found the dancing bear and was immediately enamored. As a designer, I'm pretty comfortable with xacto knives, so I thought I might try it out. I used card stock because I wanted mine to be red as well, but I think that the card stock is actually too thick and inside corners are hard to get perfectly sharp. In any case, I think this still turned out pretty well and it was a pretty fun project, too. It was a nice break from the knitting.
