***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries, Thank You!***
You remember Jessica Alpern Cuts Paper, don’t you? Yes. Good! No, well let me refresh your memory, because you’re going to love her and her fantastic work. We have one of Jessica’s fantastic, intricate cut outs in our bird, tree and feather art gallery.
The black nest to the top left is a hand cut silhouette, filled with charm and character.
My favorite detail is the little feather. So cute. And, I love that Jessica mounts the cut outs to vellum or plexi glass, so you can change up the background color if your room (or mood) changes. We also picked up a Spork, Welcome to the family cut out for our kitchen, but those weren’t the only cut outs we loved. In fact, it was hard to choose. Jessica has everything, from real, nature inspired cut outs like these:
But, if you’re looking for something with a little more personality, Jessica’s got you covered with light-hearted, humorous cut outs like these:
Heck, she can make a custom silhouette of you furry friend.

I always think of Stephanie (and my sister) saying “How rude!” from Full House.
Love your blog. So personal.
I favorite’d Jessica’s shop. I LOVE the nesting silhouette and the Spork one would be awesome in my kitchen!
I am also a FB follower!
I follow you on FB too!
I added Jessica to my favorites. i looked at them all, but I think that peacock feather is my favorite!
Already a subscriber. Every day my husband and I relate back to some episode of Seinfeld, so there are a billion different catch phrases!
Added her as a favorite on etsy. I love the ‘Love Gun’ silhouette. My husband would get a kick out of that (he’s a gun collector).
I am a subscriber. 🙂
I am a FB fan, too!
Already a subscriber. “Whoa” (Joey from Blossom) the the first thing that comes to mind as a classic TV catch phrase, even though I never really watched Blossom.
Favorited on Etsy. I love “hey honey”. We’re coming up on our first anniversary (traditional gift–paper), so this would be perfect!
I am a subscriber through email!
My fave TV phrase is from Saved by the Bell: AC Slater calling Jesse Spano “Mama” all the time…lol
Love, love, love this giveaway! I am constantly making 30 Rock references, it’s probably getting pretty annoying for those around me! 🙂
Her shop is now a favorite of mine on Etsy… though it already should have been! Favorite items include the rain/umbrella, peacock, lemongrass/salmon/cracked pepper and skeleton keys!
Already following you on FB… how do you think I saw this so quickly?!
I am a subscriber! I also added Jessica Alpern to my Etsy favs

My favorite is the blue hyacinth
I’m a subscriber also!
I am a happy follower! 🙂
I used to love that show too!!! I can’t think of any tv shows taht I used to quote but my friends and I used to quote Monty Python…. was so fun at the time! lol
Hi Amanda, I really love your style of decorating your house. I got some really nice ideas for our home (we moved in a new home 4 weeks ago). In my freetime I love to handcraft especially with paper. And the works of Jessica Alpern are great and I now how much time she must had spent on her works.
Best regards from Germany,
Annett
Easy- Steve Erkle : “Did I doo thaaaat?”
I would love to enter the Jessica Alpern giveaway! Her prints are beautiful and unique! I subscribed to the blog, liked you on Facebook, and also added Jess as an Etsy Favs. Thanks!
I am a subscriber! (though I’m totally blanking on a TV phrase – what is WRONG with me??)
Email subscriber..can’t decide if I like the keys, the bicycles or the Easter egg best..beautiful creations and a really nice giveaway.
Joey from “Friends” – How youuu dooing? usually comes to mind.
Oooh- I’d love some new artwork for my house!
I LOVE the “Rain, Rain” cutout because I grew up in Portland and it reminds me of home!
First: I’m a subscriber and adore your blog.
Second, and if anyone else remembers this, that would be great and make me feel not as crazy: There was a commercial sometime in the past, where a family was trying to take a group photograph but the camera wouldn’t work. So Grandma yells “shake the camera!!” I say that phrase all the time, which in my mind means fiddlewithituntilitworks. Shake the camera!

For me, it was always Arnold on Diff’rent Strokes.
My favorite phrase is from the movie Finding Nemo. It’s, “Just Keep Swimming!” Words to live by I tell ya.
“Legen… wait for it… dary!!” The BF and I just started watching How I Met Your Mother and we repeat quotes to each other nonstop.
Also following on FB! 🙂
I added Jessica Alpern to my Etsy Favs (ihgirl22)! I just love the Meat Lovers silhouette cut out!
I “Like” Our Humble Abowed on Facebook!
I also went on Jessica Alpern’s Etsy site and added her to my favorites. I love several of her pieces! – the nesting eggs, Dino-mite head (which my husband thinks is really cool), and the dog silouettes. Maybe I’ll get a silhouette of our little Puppy Gracie 🙂 I’m really excited about this giveaway!
I subscribe via Google Reader if that counts. 🙂
I think my favourite catch phrase is also from Full House. I saw “How ruuude!” a la Stephanie Tanner all the time.
I added Jessica Alpern to my Etsy favs and LOVE the In Our Summer Skin series. So great!

I added Jessica Alpern to my Etsy favorites…Love it!!!!
I always seem to get the Leave it to Beaver theme song stuck in my head. lol
Aww, rats. I was all excited to enter because I love the pet portraits, but then I noticed they’re in vinyl. Going to have to stick to my eco-principles and not enter 😦
Oh well, maybe I can attempt to DIY something similar using paper/card instead, one day.
I signed up! Wow –catchphrase, eh? So many of them stop being funny after the millionth time, but as a Southerner, I’ll go with Flo (from Alice) and “Kiss my grits!”
Added to my faves. I think my favorites are the skeleton keys and the seaweed.
Liked on FB.
I’ve followed you through Google Reader for serveral months now. I’d say my favorites are the Skeleton Leaf, Peacock Feathers, and One Wish — I’d love to get all three!
Hey guys! I’m so excited everyone is entering the giveaway! I just wanted to take a moment to elaborate. Only the white silhouettes are on vinyl. All of the other work is created with archival black silhouette paper. Not only is it eco-friendly, but it will last for generations. Thanks so much everyone and especially Amanda!
My husband and I quote tv shows and movies all the time. I can’t think of a favorite. But my husband just finished the dishes and said, “Dishes are done, dude.” (Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead) Just an example of how often and random we quote things. Haha.
“Picture it, Sicily” from Sophia on Golden Girls.
I always loved the green slime falling on someone on the nickelodeon show 🙂
oh and i added her to my favorites! loved the peacock feathers
and i’m a fb fan of urs
Thanks to Amanda and 9stars/Jessica for letting me know that paper silhouettes are an option 🙂 So I’m revoking my previous comment – I would love to enter after all!
I follow the blog, and I also added the pet silhouette to my Etsy favourites (username “bon007”), but I’m not on FaceBook so no extra entry there.
I’m sure it’s not my most used quote, but the only one I can think of just now was Daria (from the TV show Daria) saying something like, “Fun is fun. I’ll try to remember that.”
these are really cool! thanks for a fun giveaway
we always liked Steve Irkle “anybody got any cheeeese?”
Ummm- this is a tough one….I think that I would have to say that my husband I I always get a kick out of the one-liners that Lenny Briscow has in every rerun episode of Law and Order (we’re big fans:)
and her work is AMAZING by the way- so unique- what a great giveaway!!!
How fun! I hope I win.
I’m a follower and my family and I quote sayings from my all time favorite movie – Major Payne. 🙂
Added Jessica to my favorites and have already picked out what I want if I win – the set of three keys! 🙂
