Its Just Paper- via Karen

Karen has been looking at this site by paper artist Calvin Nicholls (www.behance.net/calvinnicholls)

"There is nothing simple or ordinary about his paper art. Where we would simply use a piece of paper and a pair of scissors, Calvin uses everything you could possibly think of to carve, cut and rip perfect details onto his creations.
