A Special Handmade Card to Celebrate an Engagement

A long-time customer got in touch to ask if I was available to create a card for her. She was looking for something special for a young couple who had recently become engaged. She then sent me a photo of the couple which, from past experience, I knew she hoped I would recreate in paper.
The photo my customer sent showed the couple in a garden, beside a table adorned with flowers. The bride-to-be is proudly showing off her engagement ring. I recreated the scene, adding just a hint of the table and flowers to frame the couple.
I hope they enjoyed seeing themselves brought to life in paper!
Here is another engagement card I made for the same customer, inspired by a proposal photo, together with this one.

Engagements are almost always joyous occasions, whatever comes later in life. The couple will love seeing your work, for years to come.
