  • Custom Silhouette Hand Cut

    $35.00

    PLEASE NOTE: This is the first step in any order so unless Patti did a silhouette for you previously, you will need to purchase a standard silhouette before ordering any other items upon which to feature it.

    Please use this listing to purchase a standard silhouette, and click the button on this page to upload profile photos for reference in the creation of your silhouette. (Or email them to Patti@HeartPaperScissors.com and please put your name in the subject bar so she knows you are connected to this purchase.)

    In the Houston, TX area? Contact Patti to have your silhouette done in person! The sitting itself only takes about 2 minutes or less. (She is used to wiggly children – no worries!)

    For a general FAQ about silhouettes, please see this page.

    Once a silhouette is completed and approved, you are able to order any of the other items offered on Heart Paper Scissors.

    When you order a Standard Silhouette, you receive two: a left and a right facing silhouette, hand cut by the artist.

    SHIPPING: Silhouettes ship separately from other items for $6.95 via Priority Mail (added at checkout).

    The larger size silhouettes are usually 8×10″ size but sometimes look better mounted onto the 11×14″ size acid free bristol board. Both are standard sizes for easy framing. For large silhouettes, you’ll receive one of each subject. Extras for the large silhouettes are $20.

  • head to toe silhouette

    Head to Toe Silhouette

    $60.00

      Full figure silhouettes are a favorite way to preserve this fleeting time in life – childhood. Siblings are portrayed playing together, in proportion to each other’s size and age, holding their favorite lovey or doll or toy. These full figure silhouettes are a great way to show details and a story that tells of well loved children…

  • Extras (Standard size)

    $16.00

    Each subject comes with 2 silhouettes: a left and a right facing silhouette so that you have one to keep and one to give. If you’d like a 3rd or a 4th silhouette of the same person (or  pet), then extras are $10 each. So if you need 4 silhouettes total of one child, you’d order one silhouette (a left/a right), plus 2 extras.

  • oval frame honey gold

    Neutral Palette Honey Gold Oval Silhouette Frame 5×7″

    $36.00 price_excluding_tax

    This neutral palette frame (Silhouette sold separately), of honey gold tone is a bit more embellished than a standard black oval frame but I wanted it to have that feel of the Victorian age where the art of silhouettes really flourished.  It has a rubbed finish so I could marry that style with a bit of the Farm House decor or French Country style we all love.

    Last summer, I drew up a frame based on a couple favorites I’ve used over the years. I  worked with a company to design my own version of the “perfect oval frame” for my 5×7″ silhouettes. Best part: you don’t have to trim the art into an oval. It will fit “as is” and comes with a hook in the top so you can hang it on a wall. Or – it has an easel backing so it can sit on a desk. The easel backing is wide so it won’t topple easily.  Yet the easel is short enough that it won’t protrude from under the frame if you decide to hang it on the wall.

    Silhouettes are a very simple and monochromatic art form. I think a little bit of “flair” is the best way to display them. I absolutely love these frames for silhouettes. They also work well for displaying portraits,  simple watercolors, small sketches, wedding photos, pressed flowers, a brush script quote, a monogram… (Silhouette sold separately)

    French Blue Patina Oval Silhouette Similar Frame 5×7″ (Copy)

    $36.00 price_excluding_tax

    This french blue frame (Silhouette sold separately), similar to a copper patina, is a bit more embellished than a standard black oval frame but I wanted it to have that feel of the Victorian age where the art of silhouettes really flourished.  It has a rubbed finish so I could marry that style with a bit of the Farm House decor or French Country style we all love.

  • Custom Silhouette JPEG (digital only)

    $20.00

    Now that Patti has a silhouette gift shop for printing onto fun products, some people may wish only to have a JPEG version of their silhouette. Patti will still hand cut the silhouette as this is too rare and unique an art form to not use for all her customers… however, if you don’t need the…

  • HIDDEN No Frills Silhouette (Trial Run)

    $25.00

    Read carefully – if you email questions about this item, you are no longer eligible for it at this price and will instead be charged the standard silhouette price and procedure. This no frills item is for those customers who just want a standard size black silhouette mounted onto a 5×7″ acid free bristol board which comes with 2: a left and a right facing silhouette per subject. You email profile photographs to Patti@HeartPaperScissors.com  See this link for tips: www.HeartPaperScissors.com/silhouettes/email There will be no image emailed to you to view/approve, no dialog or questions back and forth in emails. Patti will hand cut a silhouette based on the best photograph you send (so make sure they’re good) and send it regular US mail as is to the shipping address associated with your payment of this invoice. This should usually be the fastest option (but not guaranteed yet until we try it out more) to receive your silhouette but it depends on how many other orders are being processed at the same time and the order in which they come. If you have not received your hand cut left and right silhouette(s) per subject within 2 weeks of placing this order, feel free to email to ask about the status – but remember, this one is no frills so no squeezing in special requests and questions until after you have received it. Then you can always order gift items and frames and special requests at a later date. Note: “No frills” would not necessarily describe the finished silhouettes – they’ll still look amazing!
