Mizzie recently turned 50. Her husband came up with the idea of a "then and now" card and sent me two photos of his wife, one as a baby and one current one. I decided to show the sepia coloured baby picture in a white Polaroid-inspired frame, whilst his wife's current photo is full colour and frameless.
I added a big yellow 50 to mark her age, some stars and a heart for colour.

"Thanks for the beautiful card!!!" Mizzie wrote to me and, even though it wasn't really from me, I was delighted that she liked it!
