Paper cut family tree

After doing the wedding card a few weeks ago, a friend asked me to make her a papercut tree with her family's names.

Here's the design, ready to cut…

…5 hours later it's all cut out!… 

…I mounted it in a floating frame…

Tree Wedding Card

A friend wanted a special wedding card for her friends. She was giving them a tree as a wedding present so I made this card…

…here is is ready to start cutting…  

…5 hours later I finished cutting and removed the template…  

…I tidied up the edges, it looked really nice on a glass table outside!…  

 …I made a window card mount for it…

…I liked the way the front of the card bowed forwards – this meant the cut cast shadows on the background rather than looking flat… 

…finished!
