Click Here To Purchase Snowflakes: Creative Paper Cutouts
Snowflakes is a book filled with designs for creative paper cutouts. There are eighty pages of cutouts each with a folded paper triangle below to lead you through the design.
It is well known that no two snowflakes look alike. This is true even with cut snowflakes even if everyone in the family cuts the same design, each one will be different. Families can decorate their snowflakes with sparkles or color them with crayons or markers. Can you imagine a room filled with hanging snowflakes!
The author, Cindy Higham is from Utah, where she had been making cutout snowflakes for years. Cindy decided to put all of her unusual patterns into a book so that we could experiment.
Cindy’s patterns can be used for everyday activities such as scrapbooking, decorations and holiday cards. Some of the more sophisticated uses are for quilt blocks, stencils, crochet patterns, wood ornaments or patterns for stained glass.
Once you learn how to use the techniques, start experimenting!
