I belong to the Facebook group
IWEN (Israeli Women Entrepreneurs' Network). Once a week we are allowed to advertise on a thread in the group and one of those weeks a lovely lady contacted me about making thank you cards for her. She organises private tours of Israel and wanted some cards to thank her customers for choosing her business.
My new customer had spotted
this card on my
Facebook business page and decided that she liked the idea of a papercut card with Thank You as the text. She wanted the cards to be large because she wanted them to make a statement. She also asked me to line the cards with a blue paper inlay which would make them blue and white - the colours of the
flag of Israel.
This was a fun project to work on. Occasional repetitive work like this can be quite relaxing once I have come up with the initial design.
"Thanks again for the super quick turnaround - I really do appreciate it." she wrote to me. I hope her customers like their handcut papercut cards.

Your cards are very cute!
The recipients are going to love your card. They'll feel appreciated, if not loved. I know I would.
Love them! Remind me of the lines on school paper!
And may we never get beyond the place where we write thank you notes!
These are fantastic. They are so simple looking but it works. #MMBC

Wow, how many did you end up making? They are lovely. I've dabbled in just a little papercutting myself and know even a simple design can take a while.
The blue and white to echo the flag colours looks so good, I'm sure this ladies customers are going to the thrilled to receive something so special.
Simple but so effective. It might be repetitive work but still needs a lot of concentration to keep the quality so high.
How interesting that Napoleon tried to capture this city. I love your photos of the ruins there.
Your cards are lovely Lisa. So creative :) Thanks for sharing at Creative Mondays last week. Hope you can join us today.
