Dear Jeffrey,

After my boss gave me a beautiful orchid plant as a thank you for workign manyhours of overtime, I made him a thank you along the lines of your cut paper thank you design. My motif was an orchid, though! The first one I made had some proportion problems, but the second was much nicer. I felt shy about photographing it and postng it where it would be compared to yours, but now I regret that I didn't take a picture of it. My boss definately appreciated it, because he is a designer himself. Thank you os much for sharing yourcraft and enthusiam with us. Your diary about the frustrations you faced while creating the paper chandelier was so helpful- it taught us that even someone with a wonderful gift like yours must work hard an be persistent to create a beautiufl result.

Jeffrey, I would like to see you create some type of 3d snowflake, the Jeffrey Rudell version, which would be ornate and 3 dimensional, of course. If it could fold up to fit inside an enveloep and become a greeting card, that would be even better!

Thank you, Jeffrey!

Dear ohthecuteness,

You did a lovely job adapting Jeffrey's idea to your own style! Beautifully done! The cutwork looks stunning against the marbled paper. Piebrand's idea of using the piece as a mat fo ra special photo is a nice one.

Dear kassiariggs,

My friend had a double masectomy a year ago. Thank God she has remained healthy since. I will keep your friend in my prayers today. What a beautiful, thoughtful gift you have made for her. Good luck to your both
