Paul Overton of the blog Dude Craft has filmed a thorough video tutorial that makes it easy to take a photo and turn it into a cut-paper portrait that looks like you drew it all painstakingly by hand.
Photoshop is the key, but fans of old-school tools need not fear — an X-Acto and Spray Mount are necessary, too.
You can watch the entire video (a little over 10 minutes, but worth it), below.
