I made this card for my Ways To Use It challenge all about scissors. I started out with the scherenschnitte technique in mind and it turned out to be some variation on it.
To be quite honest, most of the trimming was done with a craft knife, but I did get in there with my scissors too. I stamped my image on the wrong side of my dotted paper and then began to trim it out. When I was done, I mounted my focal panel on a piece of origami paper. I used some glue to align some of the really thin bits in the proper spots to show the image.
I stamped the panel, added the ribbon tabs and popped the whole thing up on a card base.
Thanks for looking!
ETA: The title came from my hubby's response to the finished card. He thought that it looked like cilantro.
