Running on the Track

A new customer wrote to me with a request for a birthday card for her son who was turning 16. She told me that he is a runner and sent me a photo of the young man in action. I also received  the logo of his running club - a simple one made up of three circles - and some physics diagrams too.
I showed Aron on the running track. I carefully cut out the circles of his running club's logo and added a big number 16 to mark his age and those physics diagrams as well.
Mum was delighted with the card when she collected it but wasn't sure that Aron would want me to share it here. Several days later I received a message saying "Aron said you can post his card. He loved it! We all did." Apparently he wants his parents to frame it for him as well.
I think it was winner!

It's a testament to your skills that Aron decided that you could post the card. Love the physics diagrams! xx

That is fabulous! My son just joined track for the first time ever this school year and we just watched his first meets this week. It's been quite a learning experience for us all.

This is great - attention to detail and how you can bring everything to life in paper! Thanks for sharing with #PoCoLo

When you are dealing with a 16 year old it's always a bit worrying about whether they are going to want to share, but I'm so glad he did let you because it's an amazing card.
