Wafer paper doesn't really get old. It starts out dry and stays that way unless you add water. If you just want gentle curves in it, misting it can work or sponging on water with a just slightly damp sponge brush (I do the latter). You can't cut through it when dry with cookie cutters - I doubt you will be able to when wet either. It will just tear. You need scissors, decorative shears, or punches to get nice clean cuts.
