Bridal Guide
























We had our scrapbook featured in Bridal Guide this month. When I go to weddings, I always cut two silhouettes of each guest. One goes in a scrapbook for the bride & groom and the guest writes a personal note under their silhouette. This makes a great keepsake!

Karl is available to cut silhouettes at your wedding or other special event. Please email Lauren for our special events brochure. Lauren@Cutarts.com



Family Silhouettes


This was a project that Karl did for a family. They gave it as a gift to their parents.
