Cut-Me-Own-Snowflake

Paper snowflake no. 6.

Ankh-Morpork! Ankh-Morpork! So good they named it Ankh-Morpork!



Closer to real size:


As a longtime Discworld fan I really enjoyed doing this one. Because it's packed pretty full of specific shapes, this was the first snowflake where I had to sketch out everything before cutting, just to make sure all the pieces fit in (usually I improvise the non-shaped cuts). It was a tight squeeze, but it worked. As with the others, this was a folded scissors cut.

In honor of the fair River Ankh, it's on a sludgy brown background.

Ankh:


A morepork:


Do you see the letters "AM" under the owl?

There's also a nod to Pterry's hats atop the ankh.

Flake measures 8 5/8" wide.
