The first project doesn't even mention clipping or any kind of similar term in the title - it's called the Curator deck, period. Only on the card back design does it show scissors.
I still think Clipped Wings is an awesome name, taking a potentially depressing term and giving it a playful twist. They're literally clipped out of paper - it's PERFECT. Paper Wings just doesn't have the same oomph behind it, doesn't evoke the same degree of feelings.
I LOVE IT! The Clipped Wing Deck. Or just plainly Clipped Wings. I can see the name of the box being uniquely designed a swell, like maybe the 'W' being made out of wings?
That's a great idea - it could be as iconic as the Bicycle logo design (while not quite as famous)! In fact, imagine two birds, side by side, wings extended in a "V" shape - voila, a "W", and one that's not simply formed out of disembodied wings but out of birds, which is the real focus of the deck.
