coloured chinese papercut invitations

thank god for ebay, i could get reasonably priced chinese papercuts rather than getting ripped off by the local thrift shop... instead of forking out $10 a packet, i could get 3 for $10...

once i have received the "parcel"... card making went underway... all featuring "double happiness" in various scenes...

... with peacock ...with fish in lotus pond
...with mandarin duck pair
... with phoenix
with double piglets in front of double doorway
... with flowers and butterflies
... with more flowers and butterflies
... with double chooks
... with dragon and phoenix pair
lovely! and they were all handmade papercuts!
