Wedding Papercut commission

A recently finished papercut commission for an autumn wedding. The forest is made up of four separate layers, cut from Fabriano eco paper, and finished with cotton white broderie paper at the back. The banner is fixed to the little birds with copper wire coiled flat.

I think the effect of the cut-out wedding dress works really well with the grass behind it. Well done, I hope they like it!
