When I traveled to Florida to escape the northern snow and cold, I realized I couldn't bring my scroll saw with me! I decided to try and cut some scroll patterns out of paper using an exacto knife and a #11 blade.
Attached are two photos, one of Charles' cat pattern and another of a hunting dog retrieving a pheasant (not sure where I got this pattern!) Each pattern was printed on good quality 8.5 X 11 inch paper, cut out with the exacto knife and the finished cutting placed on a backing coloured paper.
This was fun, and not too difficult (as long as you use a sharp blade - sort of like scroll sawing!)

Those are wonderful!
The kitten is my late "Splinter" who had to be put down at 3 months due to a fatal infection and we do miss her!
