Lockdown Papercutting Project Day 53: Curled Leaf

Curled Leaf #645

This “Curled Leaf” design is from my ongoing papercutting challenge. (I’m trying to work my way through all of the designs in the “922 Decorative Vector Ornaments” book by Dover Books, but during the Covid19 Lockdown I’ve been adapting and cutting 100 papercuts in 100 days…)

Today’s design is number 645 in the book.

I like this one. It was fairly quick to cut because it’s so small, and I enjoy the way the end of the leaf curls around, and the swirly vine thing that it’s attached to.

I can definitely see myself using this motif in a future project. It looks like it would work very well in the border of a larger design.


While cutting this one I was listening to a library audiobook, The Fairy’s Tale, by F.D. Lee. I’m quite enjoying it, which is a nice surprise. This year I’ve already listened to all of the books that I actively wanted to listen to, and am now down to trawling through the remaining books and just hoping that they’re not going to be awful. And this one definitely isn’t awful.
