Mister Handmade in Israel and I "celebrated" our 24th wedding anniversary back in June 2022. I say "celebrated". It was a horrible day. We had not long lost our youngest son
Gadi and were not in the mood for celebrating at all. But I had already made this card for my other half and decided to give it to him anyway. He is a big fan of my papercut art and I try and come up with a new design for him each year. Apparently the traditional 24th anniversary colour and flower is lavender, a bloom that represents calmness, serenity and healing. I lined the card with a lavender-coloured paper inlay.
We have since celebrated 25 years but there was no card made for that day. Perhaps I will decide to make Mister Handmade in Israel anniversary cards again one day. Who knows? Even though a silver wedding anniversary is a significant milestone in every couple's life, it is so very hard to think of the good times at the moment.

Warmest mazel tov on your silver wedding anniversary. We never recover from the loss of a beloved child, or from war. But beautiful photos, cards and saved treasures from the son's life make our lives worth living into the future.
Beautiful card and the lavender lining sets it off perfectly. Congratulations on your Silver Wedding Anniversary; 25 years is quite an achievement. xx
