Paper Art, Paper Decoration, Papier Mache & Paper Models

Paper can be used as a craft surface but it is also used as form of decorating.  Additionally, aside from origami, paper can be used to make wonderful dimensional creations and functional items.  Papercrafts and paper art can be combined with other techniques (like stamping, stencilling, painting etc) and special affects are easily added (like antiquing, distressing, crackling, glossing etc).

• Craft surfaces:  greeting cards, tags, invitations, paper models, papier mache shapes, paper decorations, paper gifts, altered projects, etc.
