Heart in Hand Papercutting / Vintage Plaster Frame

This is the tiniest love token in this collection! But keep in mind, tiny doesn’t mean quick. Cutting out those little fingers… and weaving the heart with the hand was very fiddly, but worth the trouble!

The background is an old French letter.

I used a vintage, French graph paper for the small hand.

The pink heart is from a vintage French religious leaflet.

The cuff is made from a mid (19th) century gold fleur de lis paper.

The old plaster frame is so interesting! It has roses around the sides. A smaller silver tone beaded frame sits inside the larger frame, separated by a dark red velvet mat.

A little circle of wire is on the back for hanging. Ribbon is not necessary, but I will include coordinating vintage ribbon.

Size: 5” x 5 3/4”
