Puzzle 509 - One Love

The puzzle's figurals were in remembrance of a Jamaican vacation - the couple's Honeymoon - and as Jamaica is known for it's Reggae music, I chose the name "One Love" for this puzzle's name. I used Photoshop and Illustrator to create the text border around the puzzle's edge.

As it happened (from my Journal archives)

March 15, 2004

5:46 pm - Yesterday morning I put in a couple more hours cutting #508, the oval shaped first anniversary puzzle. I took the rest of the day off, except for an evening dance class, as it was my birthday! Today I completed the anniversary puzzle. The nice thing about this anniversary puzzle is that I had previously made the marriage proposal puzzle for the same couple! See Puzzle 232: Just Like Family!

8:19 pm - I cut about 150 pieces of the ~325 piece oval shaped first anniversary puzzle. The puzzle will measure 17 13/16" by 13 5/8". Cutting going well. I'll cut for a couple hours tomorrow morning and then expect to complete the puzzle on Monday.


Figurals - Goggles, Snorkel, Island of Jamaica, Swim Fins

The Printed Text around the border of the puzzle reads: On this day I give you my hand, my heart, and my undying love. I give you my promise to cherish each day together more than the last. I give you my friendship, trust, and companionship without reservation. I give you my strengths and my weaknesses, my fears and my courage. I give you all of my tomorrows, secure in the knowledge that we are truly meant to be and that ours is a love for all times.
