A good friend asked me to make a card for her daughter's 18th birthday. Her daughter is a part-time waitress at Cafe Greg, a well know dairy cafe with branches throughout the country. She thought it would be cute if I could put the logo of the chain on her daughter's shirt.
My friend wanted me to show her daughter baking challah, the loaf of white bread, typically plaited in form, which is traditionally baked to celebrate Shabbat. She also asked me to include an Israeli flag, along with the Hebrew phrase יחד ננצח, "Together We Will Win", the national motto since the start of the war, which has been used on the news and by many companies and organizations.

I showed Hadar, the birthday girl, in her olive coloured work shirt, with the Cafe Greg logo on the sleeve. She is busy plaiting a challah and there is a mixing bowl, wooden spoon and eggs next to her. Most traditional challah recipes use eggs, flour, water, sugar, yeast, vegetable oil and salt. Challah is made without dairy.
I added the blue and white Israeli flag with the "Together We Will Win" motto beneath it.
A big red number 18 marks her age.
My friend told me that her daughter loved the card!
A big red number 12 marks Benjo's age.

These are both fabulous!
What wonderful photos. It is great that you are sent photos with the recipient, she looks so happy!
Well done to Benjo, he does sound quite the entrepreneur!
They both turned out so nicely. Love that you personalized them too!
I enjoyed today's cards - so cute. That young man seems to be a budding business marvel. The young lady is very pretty.
What beautiful cards. I love that you included a photo of the 18 year old holding her card. She has a gorgeous smile. Also lovely way to commemorate Benjo's birthday and his flourishing new business.
Lovely cards.
What enterprising young people, both well deserving of a beautiful Lisa card. xx
Well done! The two birthday people are very young to be helping the family financially. No wonder they are proud of themselves.
These are awesome!
The detail in your cards always amazes me. That teeny tiny logo on Hadar's top is brilliant and I love the bread and baking utensils.
Benjo's card is equally as lovely and he sounds quite the little businessman! x
The cards turned out lovely! -I just love how you always personalize them. It makes it extra special. :)
I love the way that you personalise your cards, that makes them so unique and special :o)
