Makeup

Eden's Mum asked me to make a card for her daughter's birthday. She sent me a list of all the themes for this year's card. Driving lessons, hoop earrings, eye makeup by Urban Decay and fancy makeup brushes were mentioned, and Eden's hair should be shown worn in ponytail she said. Eden was turning 17, so I was asked to show her age too.

For those of you who may not know what the blue box is on the card, it is an Israeli L-plate. The plate shares the general design of Israeli information signs in its square form and blue background. On the blue background is a white triangle pointing upwards, with the black Hebrew letter "ל" in it, from the Hebrew למידה‎ - "Learning".

Another customer asked me for some smaller cards. The one for Skye, above, should have a makeup theme, her Grandma said, whilst for the others I was simply asked to create "something pretty". The tulip design, below, is an old favourite that I still enjoy making from time to time.
