			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I can&#8217;t draw to save my life. I really admire people who can. So, when talented people can create wonderful art with a sharp knife and a pair of scissors I immediately take my hat off. Just look at these amazing pieces, all hand cut.</p>

<p>Here are some other artists and their paper art. I find these pieces personal and fun and they don&#8217;t cost a fortune. All genuine and original, I think they make lovely gifts. (Note: make sure they are not machine made).</p>
<p><a href="http://splendidwillow.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/diecuttrees.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-569" title="diecuttrees" src="http://splendidwillow.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/diecuttrees.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>&#8220;All Trees&#8221; (on rice paper), from the Toronto based <a href="http://www.etsy.com/" target="_blank"><strong><em><span style="color: #800080;">Etsy</span> </em></strong></a>store, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23468001" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color: #800080;">PaperCutDieCut</span></strong></a>. Measures 21&#8243;x 21&#8243; and costs $100 (frame not included).</p>
<p><a href="http://splendidwillow.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/papercut.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-570" title="papercut" src="http://splendidwillow.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/papercut.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="330" /></a></p>
<p>&#8220;Life&#8221;, also from <strong><span style="color: #800080;">PaperCutDieCut</span></strong>, measures 7&#8243;x7&#8243; and costs $18 (without frame).</p>
<p><a href="http://splendidwillow.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/papercut31.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1329" title="papercut31" src="http://splendidwillow.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/papercut31.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>Yet another talented <span style="color: #800080;">Etsy </span>seller is, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_list_1&amp;listing_id=20301666&amp;ga_search_query=paper+cuts+in+black&amp;ga_search_type=tag_title&amp;ga_page=9&amp;min=&amp;max=&amp;order=" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color: #800080;">Papercuts By Joe</span></strong></a>. The piece &#8220;Branches&#8221; measures 2&#8243;x6&#8243; mounted to 8&#8243;x10&#8243; and costs $35 (black Paper on White Illustration Board).</p>
