Anniversary Gift Happy 3rd anniversary to my husband, Tristan! We've had many happy times together.  Tristan and I met in 2015 when the Wicker family played music at my brother's wedding.  Later in 2015, we started dating! We lived five hours apart and still made it. I finally moved to North Carolina in June 2016 and we got married in October 2017.  Wow, how the times flies! I was certainly on cloud 9. There's no one like Tristan! :) Get your custom cut and show your love how much you appreciate them. Display it on your bedroom wall or living room mantle. You will see it and be reminded of how much you appreciate your love. There is no one like your partner! How did I make it? Below, I carefully cut my design with an x-acto blade. The design is an original sketch. Where can I get this?

New Home What better housewarming gift than this wall art? This paper cut looks great in a floating frame and hung against an accent wall.  This paper cut was made for the Rudd family after their big move. For approximately 12 years, the Rudd family lived in the same home. This was a big move for them especially, with 3 young boys.  Make this paper cut your own! Personalize your custom cut with your family name! I love personalized items with my name on it.  Art Process Creating my paper cuts comes easy and relaxing to me. After folding my paper in half, I sketch my design and start cutting the frame. One of my favorite parts is opening my fold after cutting the frame!! The pictures below show clearly how beautiful it is.  Make this housewarming gift your own! Visit my shop below to request your custom order! https://www.etsy.com/shop/rachelscustomdesign

Adoption Gift A year ago, my brother and his wife adopted twins! These sweet girls were born in Arizona and the whole family has fallen in love.  Ruby and Juniper are twins and they have been a blessing! Their mother chose LIFE and we are forever thankful.  For many people, adopting had been a true gift. Whether they are unable to have children or, they simply want to give more love through adoption, children are a true gift. As this popular quote puts it, "My favorite book says we are all adopted." --It's true! God has chosen ALL of us to be adopted. He has given us hope of life and happiness.

  I officially opened my Etsy shop this year!!!  On July, 21st I re-opened my shop after 11 years...  I didn't know what my niche was in 2009 and I had always been artsy. I liked to knit, crochet, paint, and sew. There was no focus then. Since 2012, my focus has been on-- paper cutting! "Why cutting paper?" you ask... good question. It's an unusual hobby and art. I received my first paper cut when I was in college and I loved the detail. It was a cut of the Chinese year. The year of the snake. It came from a friend who was studying abroad from China. I thought I'd give cutting a try and I loved it.  Since then, I've expanded my themes to: Wedding and Anniversary Bible Verses Sayings and Quotes Baby Gifts Homes Travel It's a niche I have stuck with for the past 8 years and I still enjoy cutting paper! Below is a video of an anniversary cut I did! If you would like your own, personalized paper cut, order from my Etsy! https://www.etsy.com/shop/rachelscustom

  Etsy The Perfect Gift Some gifts are better given without having to say anything at all. There may not be any words to give to someone who has lost their baby. Or, maybe there has been a complicated pregnancy. This gift says, "You and your baby are special and you're baby is a gift from God."   Every pregnancy is different. For many, miscarriages happen too suddenly. It's tragic and it happens more than you think. This bible passage is perfect for that hurting family, "Lo, children are a heritage of Jehovah; And the fruit of the womb is his reward." (ASV) In 2020, my coworker had a friend that had a healthy pregnancy. They were packed and ready to go home from the hospital when, last minute, the doctors found complications with their baby. Tragically, their precious, baby girl didn't make it.  About the Art This paper cut art is based from an original piece done in 2018.  In 2018, my cousin had a healthy pregnancy and was close to her delivery date.
