Sar and Tor

Twins Tor and Sar recently turned 50. Their sister asked me to make them special cards to mark their big day. She wanted the cards to be as similar as possible but at the same time they needed to be customised for each twin. Each card needed to have a big 50 on it, a picture of their dog, their work and she wanted some general birthday paraphernalia as well.
Tor's card, her sister told me, needed a tennis racket on it. She is the head of the Alyth Kindergarten and loves her dog, Flossy.
Sar works for Spread a Smile, a charity dedicated to brightening children's days during long hospital stays by providing entertainers, magicians, musicians, face painters and so much more. She plays the guitar and has a beloved dog, Tilly.
I am told that both ladies loved their cards.

I love how you managed to make them look different but similar, they must have been so pleased with their cards.
