This is Day 27 of my papercutting project based on the “922 Decorative Vector Ornaments” book.
Close up there are quite a few imperfections, as usual, but they all look like they can be tidied up:

I like this one.

Day 24 of this project based on the “922 Decorative Vector Ornaments” book.
This one was quite fiddly:
Day 23 – Nearly a quarter of the way through this project based on the “922 Decorative Vector Ornaments” book – and still going strong!
Haha – note the good old trick of using wisps-of-hair-across-the-face in order to physically connect the eyes and other features to the rest of the papercutting:
I’m not sure if it was the original design or a wayward cut on my part, but the lady seems a bit ‘bog eyed’, with both eyes pointing in different directions? Not sure if I can fix that very easily. I might try later to cut another tiny bit out of the corner of her right eye (as we look at her) to see if that helps, but no – I think she’s doomed. 
This is Day 22 of this project based on the “922 Decorative Vector Ornaments” book.
Not a bad effort!
The snake looks a bit lumpy close up, but I can change that later if I need to. And I’m not sure under what circumstances I would ever need a picture of a guy (Mercury/Hermes?) with caduceus and a winged helmet, but at least now I know that if I do have some sort of emergency requiring a papercutting of a Greco-Roman god then I’ve got one ready-made…
This is Day 21 of my project based on the “922 Decorative Vector Ornaments” book.
Myeh – I’m not too keen on this one. Maybe I should have adapted the design to be a proper cut-out version instead of a ‘negative’ stencil-type cutting.
Closer up the cuts seem fairly jagged and scrappy. As with yesterday they can probably be fixed, but as it stands I just don’t find this one very pleasing:
This is Day 20 of my project based on the “922 Decorative Vector Ornaments” book. This was a nice quick one that took less than twenty minutes to cut:
I can see quite a few flaws in it that really jump out at me, but they don’t bother me too much because they all seem to be fixable:

Here is a slightly closer-up version:
