Welcome Granny

This granny arrived in Israel at the beginning of March all the way from Australia. She was supposed to be coming for her granddaughter's Bat Mitzvah but it sadly had to be cancelled due to coronavirus restrictions. Nevertheless, her family were excited about her visit and asked me to make a special card to mark her arrival.
Granny always wears blue, her daughter told me, and often wears a beret. I suggested showing her on the card along with some of her Israeli grandchildren. I carefully matched their different hair colours and styles and gave them Israeli flags to welcome her. Snowy the dog made an appearance too.
My customer told me that her mum loved the card.

Lovely card. I wonder if Granny's stay is a lot longer than she bargained for! xx

The card is adorable! At least granny was able to make it to be with family during this time of isolation.

What a lovely welcome gift! And her timing was perfect to be able to isolate with her family. x
