Kyleighs Papercuts: How to papercut 1: designing your papercut

In this post I'll show you how I create my typographical designs so they are ready for cutting. I am self-taught, so this is just about how I, personally, like to create my papercuts. Create your design With my career background in graphic design its a no-brainer that I'd use Adobe Illustrator to design my papercuts. You may like to put good old fashioned pencil to paper, or use CorelDraw or some other program.

I like Illustrator as vectors rock. they are fully scaleable and you get huge control over all the shapes (plus I've been working in Illustrator it since Macs were beige, designing everything from logos to illustrations and web graphics, it's like a lovely comfy jumper). Draw a large box over most of the page, but leave a gap around the edge. Add your words - I use Clarendon typeface, it is so beautiful and lends itself very well to papercutting with it's generous serifs. Harry potter and the deathly h by *nebezial on deviantART.

“Rose”, Update #5

To make a long story short, I now know that I have 457 bad blocks on my hard drive and damn if that video didn’t land squarely in the middle of them. More than 50% of the video is scrambled video or screeching audio. “But Steve”, you say, “Why not just pull it from the camera again?”. I’ve no idea yet if any of its salvageable, but I’m doubting it. Tags: Adult Portraits · Colored Pencil · Portrait Study Group · Work In Progress. Adobe Illustrator Part 3 - Adding Images and Text.
