Thank You Ceri

A friend and customer who works at the British Embassy in Tel Aviv contacted me recently to ask if I could make a card for someone in his team who was leaving her job. He wanted a big card to pass around the office. Items to add would be coffee for coffee mornings, party streamers, curtains, a plastic Keter shed, something related to meditating and maybe a horse, he told me. Fortunately this was one of my extra large cards so I could fit everything on!
I have shown the curly-haired lady sitting cross-legged in the Lotus position. She has a cup of coffee in her hand. Behind her are some blue curtains. Apparently she was always the person responsible for helping new ambassadors to choose their soft furnishings! A horse's head can be seen to her right and a cream coloured Keter shed to her left. Finally I had fun cutting out lots of swirling party streamers. 
My customer was very happy with the card. "That's brilliant!" was his reaction when he saw it.
