Henry Hudson Sails Again

Okay, this is not exactly a paper cut, but I did cut paper to make it. My daughter had to impersonate an explorer in her third grade class last Friday. They had the option of wearing a costume, and that got my creative juices flowing. It is a challenge to think in more three dimensional terms. The hat, beard and collar are all made with paper. I like how they turned out. She ended up being the only student in her class to wear a costume. She was very brave to put it on anyway. She was the best looking Henry Hudson there. It is to bad that the photo ended up so blurry.

I love it! You are amazing! And even though the picture is blurry, I can see she has your eyes under the brim of that hat.

WOW!!! What a great idea. Scherenschnitte costumes. Kind of opens up some new ideas.
