♫ Let It Go ♫

In the midst of all the wedding planning Nomi asked me to make some cards for her nephew and niece in Australia, as she does every year. I was very impressed that she was able to think about it, and not only that, she even managed to find out what their current most favourite things are, so that I could create a card around them.
Her nephew, Coby, the eldest, was going to be 7. He loves Star Wars Lego, playing Australian rules football and messing around on an iPad.
His sister Orly was 6. She enjoys jazz dancing, loves to read and write, and is a big fan of Barbie, Lalaloopsy Dolls and Elsa from the film Frozen. Apparently she and her brother like to sing the songs from the film over and over again. Okay, so my own boys are no longer 6 years old and they never had a Barbie doll anyway, but thank goodness for the Internet! I was able to look up what all these different dolls were and work them in to the design of Orly's card.
Finally, another customer asked me for a card for a 2 year old. Cupcakes and balloons always fit the bill when it comes to birthdays, and two of each item made this card perfect for a soon-to-be 2 year old!
