Oh So Beautiful Paper

I’m a huge fan of cut paper artwork and designs, and these intricate pieces from artist Sara Burgess are no exception.  Sara has worked in cut paper, design, and illustration for many years, but recently started working with a laser to bring her work to a wider audience while maintaining the integrity of the original hand cut pieces.  Simply stunning.

Sara has shared some of her original pieces below – every single one of these was hand cut with an x-acto blade!

For her newer laser cut pieces, Sara has also opened a shop called Papersaw where you can check out these lovely cards:

For more of Sara’s gorgeous work, definitely check out her artist portfolio at White Papers Press and her shop Papersaw.  Thanks Sara!
