Perfect Likeness


My lovely new customer who ordered this card for her friend also asked me to make cards for her mum and for her granddaughter. "Mum needs a comb in her hand" she said, "she is always faffing with her hair!". She also asked me to add some anemones somewhere on the card. I had a lot of fun creating them in bright red and purple.
The other card was for her granddaughter. She plays the ukulele, likes art and making things. My customer sent me a picture of the little girl, so I was able to create her paper portrait, right down to the white braid in her hair. I showed her playing her ukulele. Some paper, pencils and a little pot with scissors and another pencil are next to her. A big yellow number seven marks her age.
The Hebrew greeting says "Happy Birthday to my Dear Granddaughter Noya".
My customer seemed very happy with the cards and posted a lovely review of my work. "I just received personalised birthday cards which I ordered from Lisa Isaacs. I can't get over the likeness to my mum! Just fabulous. Thank you Lisa. [The card is] a really special touch for a special 91st birthday. Looking forward to my next order."

    Awesome cards! I like how you have them in motion. No doubt the grandmother and granddaughter jumped in joy to have them. :-)
