Golden Wedding

My customer was travelling to the UK to surprise her parents on their 50th wedding anniversary. She asked me to make two cards which she could take with her: one from her and her husband, and one from my customer's children, their grandchildren. The first card was based on the beautiful black and white photo she sent me of her parents on their wedding day. I added a gold number 50 to mark the date.
Next, she wanted a card showing her parents today. She told me that they enjoy doing crosswords and that they drink a lot of tea! I showed the couple with a hot mug of tea in their hands, which together display the number 50. A crossword next to them is filled with the words Happy Anniversary.
Apparently they loved the cards.

Love the crossword puzzle card -what a great idea:):) You are back to "work," eh? Hope it wasn't too great of an adjustment! Have a great week, Friend. Hope you had a significant Yom Kippur.
