Our nephew Jonathan married his long-term partner Annabelle back in June.
Unfortunately, we were unable to travel to London to be with them on their
special day, but we still wanted to mark the occasion in a meaningful way and
let them know that we were thinking of them.
As a wedding gift, I created a personalised papercut for the couple. Handmade
gifts have always felt special to me, and I wanted to create
something unique that would become a lasting reminder of the beginning of
their married life together.
The papercut features Jonathan and Annabelle's names along with the date of
their marriage, incorporated into a circular design. Surrounding the lettering
are delicate flowers, buds and leaves. It was carefully cut by hand from a
single sheet of Textura Recycled Bright White Card, then layered onto blue
backing paper and mounted in a 20 x 20 cm frame.
The couple seemed delighted with it. My nephew wrote afterwards:
"This was such a wonderful surprise. Thank you so much. We are really touched to have our own Handmade in Israel creation. It's so beautiful and will have pride of place on our shelf."

Hello Lisa,
What a lovely wedding gift. Congratulations to Annabelle and Jonathan. Take care, enjoy your day and the new week ahead.
Warmest mazel tov to your nephew and his new bride. It would be lovely for them to place a wedding photo in a matching frame and put the two together on their shelf.
...the circle has no beginning and no end, representing endless time, completeness, and unity, a lovely design.
Yes, dear blogfriend, it’s a sweet, sweet wedding card. Thank you for sharing at MosaicMonday
