Artist Anna Bondoc reveals her deceptively simple pattern art  techniques for making richly textured crafts that are colorful, chic and  completely covetable.  In Simply Paper Cutting,   Anna shows you how to use your knife like a drawing instrument to  create everything from stationery to home decor in her approachable and  encouraging style. You'll be inspired to become a Paper Cut Artist with  15 unique projects, accompanied by hundreds of colorful step-by-step  photos and signature pattern stencils.  The  author provides a complete tutorial on basic cutting techniques, with  practice exercises to get you started.
