A galaxy spiral is the most intricate motif here – a swirl that pulls the eye to the centre and keeps it there.

What’s Inside
- Galaxy Spiral · Plain Cut — a single, bold motif
One ready-to-cut design: Galaxy Spiral · Plain Cut. The pack includes the cut-ready file plus a line-art sheet for tracing and colouring. Arms wind inward from the edge; cut from the outside in so the inner spiral stays supported to the end.
Three Ways to Use It
1. Cut it with a Cricut or Silhouette
The file is closed-path vector art with no overlapping lines, exactly what cutting software expects. Scale to your cardstock and cut from 80 gsm upward; a fine-point blade handles it cleanly.
2. Cut it by hand
Print at 100%, staple the sheet to a folded square of paper, and cut through both layers. Most people finish in well under half an hour.
3. Trace and colour
The line-art sheet doubles as a colouring and tracing page, a ready-made activity for classroom or family craft time.
Materials
Red cardstock or origami paper (80–160 gsm) · scissors or a craft knife · a printer · double-sided tape. Add a Cricut or Silhouette if you would rather not cut by hand.
Best For
Feature walls, science displays, galaxy parties and any window that needs to hold attention.
FAQ
Is it beginner friendly? No – save it for when you have cut a few simpler motifs first.
Does it need a machine? A craft knife helps on the tight inner turns, but sharp scissors work.
What paper shows it? Dark paper with the spiral left as the negative space.
