Remember my FMIL’s Pew Leaf Prototype?

Well, she’s been hard at work!

… and most recently our thick, rich, lush ivory bridal ribbon arrived!

Are any of your projects coming together? If so, aren’t you LOVING it?

I must be missing something on how to properly use an x-acto knife because I can’t seem to curve cut to save my life! These turned out great, but seriously, what is the proper way to use those things?!

Seashell! Somehow I missed the first post about these! They’re so delicate! I love them!

@ktisthatbees: I’m with you! Mr. Snow’s a whiz with those things and everything I attempt looks haggard and silly!

Seashell: What are these made out of? Is it cardstock?

@ktisthatbees: I’m with you! I have no idea how to properly use an x-acto knife. I also have no patience for things like that so that’s probably part of my issue!
@sapphirebride: It’s a little bit thicker than cardstock. More like posterboard. (Maybe? :)) I can ask my FMIL if you’re dying to know.

Here are specifics directly from my FMIL: i noticed on the comments that a few are wondering what i am using.. its a type of “tag board” that i am finding
in the art department at michaels..( near the posterboards etc) its heavier than cardstock but not as heavy at mat board…
as far as mastering the exacto… slow and patient and careful is the rule.. and keep a sharp blade .. changing the blade as
soon as it starts to feel like it is dragging makes it a bit easier.. !!!
