The couple on this card celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary back in August. The "bride" sent me a favourite photo from their wedding which I recreated in paper. I carefully matched the purple flowers in her bouquet and the little details in her hair. The couple are set against a background of the walls of Jerusalem's Old City, as they were in their wedding photo. A big number 20 marks the number of years they have been married.
My customer told me that her husband loved the card!
I created a card with a big gold "50 Years" on it and added some golden flowers as well. My customer asked me to include a map of England and a map of Israel on the card, with a plane flying between them. She declared the card "fabulous!"

Your work documents so much joy!
Beautiful - although I'm now going to have to have a word with R about my missing silver wreath! xx
Anniversaries are such special times - love the cards!
Wow! The details of these cards are incredible and so personalized. What a gift! Thank you for sharing these. I'm visiting from the Encouraging Hearts and Home link up today. Have a great day Lisa!
I just love your photo recreations!
So charming. What a treat to receive. I hope they frame it.
Hello dear Lisa, once more, your cards are incredibly beautiful and with lovely details.
I'm also happy that I learned a nice expression: "x years down, forever to go".
I will definitely post photos of our Christmas tree, it will be decorated on the 24th Dec.
Stay safe!
I love both cards. Nice touch to put the old city walls behind them. Makes it a beautiful souvenir. I really like the maps and flag combination on the second card. I bet there is a story there. #mmbc
Such happy cards. The recipient must treasure it in a frame.
Thank you so much for joining us at Meraki Link Party.
Much love
