Hunter Stabler Paper Cuts

April 21, 2009 // kristen // 0 replies

Sometimes I come across an artist whose work is so fantastic that I have to take a minute or so to pick my jaw up off the floor and regain my bearings before I can look at more of their work. Hunter Stabler is one of those artists. Just one look at his intricately beautiful paper cuts will leave a paper lover in full swoon, and the designs within the overall design of Hunter’s work will leave you staring for hours to find something new and, trust me, you always will. – found via NOTCOT

Does anyone else have an ever growing mountain of recipes that has spread its wings, one by one, all over your home? Yes, I definitely need to organize, and having some of these cute “corny” recipe cards from Pink Bathtub would add a little fun to the organization process. The handmade cards, which come in sets of five, would also make a great hostess or housewarming gift. After all, who doesn’t have a few corny recipes in their collection?
