    Try sandwiching the piece of foil between two pieces of tracing
    paper with your design on a separate piece on top. Hold with a few
    paper clips and cut carefully with hairdresser's scissors if you have
    them, or straight manicure scissors, removing the paper clips as you
    go. Do not let go of the layers until it is all cut. I have cut
    extremely complicated pieces in this manner from enamelling foil
    which may be a little thinner than your foil.
