WEDDING SCHRENSCHNITTE

I made this papercutting with a partially symmetrical design by folding the paper along the center line and cutting both sides of the border at the same time, being careful to leave the parts where the bride's dress and veil reach the border. Then, I unfolded the paper and worked on the unsymmetrical bride and groom. The bride's dress is patterned after my own wedding dress. The banner on the top border can be personalized with the names of the bride and groom and the heart in the middle with the date of the wedding. The bottom band can hold a verse like "United in Love" , "From This Day Forward", or the place where the wedding took place. A great project to give as a wedding or anniversary gift to yourself or someone else! Print out the pattern for this project ( 8 - 1/2" x 11" sheet of paper (resize the pattern using a copying machine).
