I personally like to cut out words and images to incorporate them into my cards and scrap booking projects but there are many talented artists on Etsy doing so much more with them! If you visit the site, you can find items for sale ranging from art work directly on the pages to paper structures made from them. Here are a few of my favorite finds...
