Wow – it’s the 63rd day of my continuing papercutting project (using the “922 Decorative Vector Ornaments” book, in preparation for incorporating them in future papercuts that are made by laser and also by hand.)

I’m away from home at the moment and only able cut some fairly quick pieces. Here is one of them:
