The Best of 2017 - Part I



Happy holidays to those of you celebrating Christmas and best wishes for an amazing year ahead! Thank you so much to everyone who has taken time out of their daily lives this past year to pop by and see what's happening over here at Handmade in Israel. I hope you will continue to visit in 2018 as I share the coming year's cards, albums and papercuts, and a few of my adventures in Israel.
In 2017 I made lots of customised cards and albums. I created invitation designs and papercut pictures, and my artwork now hangs on new customers' walls. As is common at this time of the year, I thought it would be fun to collect together some of my favourite designs from this past year and show them to you once again. Have you spotted your card or album amongst my collections? I'll save my top 10 favourite places in Israel post for another time. Watch out for it!
A big thank you to those of you who have commented, liked, shared and bought what you've seen on my blog. It is such a compliment to the maker, artist or designer when you buy directly from them. I am always very happy to receive your encouraging comments and support. Thank you for liking what I make.

That certainly is a unique way to document the year. I did a 2017 rearview review too. P.S. I love Marc Chagall

A great idea to give a review of your cards! someone else could not see the link "Click here" either, because she was in the wrong post:)

The post for All Seasons ALWAYS STARTS with the title "All Seasons - then, title of the week", in this case
"All Seasons- Between the Old and the New."

Please try again, and alert me if it does not work (sometimes it does not work because of a weak internet connection with bad weather). Thanking you in advance and happy New Year to you Blog Friend:):)
