But that isn't to say she doesn't enjoy creating whimsical items, as proven by these cute crackers and cuckoo clock.
A self-professed paper lover, her pattern-based work involves cutting, folding, slotting and interlocking. She creates props for merchant gift guides and has worked with Brides Magazine, Mollie Makes and Etsy. Paper flowers, pop-up cards, cut paper pet portraits and wall art are all fair game.
Sarah designs wedding and anniversary party fare, event decor, personalized stationery, gift wrap, as well as dimensional models... reach her via Sarah Louise Matthews Etsy shop.
Keep her in mind if you need a gift for someone special... she is happy to work with you to create a custom design.
Find Sarah Matthews on Instagram and Pinterest. Oh! And she now has a how-to book that contains 25 DIY projects to cut, fold, and shape. It's a beauty: Paper Craft Home.
