Gran

A new customer wanted to order a birthday card for her gran. She loves baking and cooking for everyone, my customer told me, and she loves her family - the children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Delving further, I was told that Gran's speciality are her jam biscuits, ginger biscuits, apple cake (and lots more!).
I have shown Gran wearing an apron and proudly holding a big plate of biscuits. Her favoured apple cake is next to her and behind her is a small photo of nearly all of her great-grandchildren. I added her age too, and the greeting "Happy Birthday Gran / Safta" (Safta means grandmother in Hebrew).
My customer wrote to tell me that "Gran loved the card!"
Another customer requested a special birthday card for her granddaughter who was turning 21. I decided that bunting, some heels, a glass of champagne, lipstick and stars were the right thing for a 21st birthday card. The Hebrew greeting says "Happy Birthday to my dear Granddaughter Karin".
Lastly, this was a simple but sweet design for a small card. I hope the lady who received it liked it.

  4. Beautiful designs. I love how Gran is still baking at 91! I hope to still be so active at that age too.
