A Design Originals Can Do Crafts Book, no 5095. Scherenschnitte which means "scissor cuts" in German, is the art of papercutting design.

The art tradition was founded in Switzerland and Germany in the 16th century, and was brought to Colonial America in the 18th century by immigrants who settled primarily in Pennsylvania.
