So, April rolled round once again and my customer did indeed ask me to make
another card for her mum. She sent me some wonderful photos that mum, a
talented
photographer, had taken in Ashkelon, a Mediterranean coastal city in the Southern
District of Israel. She thought I could use one of them, since they depict
her mum's adventures in that particular place.
My customer also wanted to show her children on the card but didn't have a
picture of her mum with all three of them together. I imagined the grouping
and created a design showing the four of them on the card. The three
children are in the front, while blonde-haired grandma is proudly standing
behind them. In the background is one of her photos of
Ashkelon National Park. Finally, I added a big number 72 to mark her age.
My customer told me that her mum loved the card.

I do think that any card made by you deserves to be framed, what a lovely display they would make.
I agree with grandma - keep framing the cards no matter your age.
Aw, that is lovely! I think it's wonderful that she intends to keep on framing all her cards right up to 100. :) They certainly are works of art.
Framing your cards is such a good idea! What a gorgeous card and how wonderful to have the children included. x
How lovely that you included all the grandchildren. I can imagine a gallery wall of all your beautiful cards. Also, I hope I look that glamorous at 72! xx
That turned out awesome!!
I think since photos are kept on-line and sent on-line, people have not worried too much about photo albums for 30 years. What a shame:( Your customer's mum, who kept and framed all her cards, is very wise. Her memories will be saved forever.
Lisaa, I'll be turning 72 in a couple of months. I can tell you it would be an honor to have one of your lovely cards. I feel sure this card will be treasured! You have a generous heart along with your talent.
