My customer received one of my cards for her own 50th birthday last year and has since started asking me for cards for her friends too! Her friend Sarah's 50th birthday was in October 2024. Sarah likes reading, baking, and is a dental nurse. Apparently she is always losing her glasses as well!
I have shown Sarah with a book in one hand and a toothbrush in the other! A big white tooth is next to her. I added a mixing bowl and a spatula, and, in the background, some chocolate chip cookies, a cupcake and a wooden spoon, to represent her love for baking. Some teeny tiny glasses are hiding just behind her.
My customer loved the card. "I just picked it up. It's great!!!" she wrote to me.
Kerry was also celebrating her 50th birthday. Her sister-in-law told me that she is in to meditation, loves the beach and, in her words, is "zany". She wanted to me to include an Israeli flag on the card and also told me that Kerry likes spicy food.
I added a little pot of red spices and a chili pepper. A big red number 50 marks her age, and a banner below that brands her as "zany".

What wonderful cards and how great that people receive them for themselves and then go on to as for their friends too. x
Is there anything you can't make out of paper? I love seeing all the miniature paper cuts you come up with and how you make each card so unique.
2 more beautiful cards. What better endorsement could there be than when one of the lucky recipients starts to order them herself! xx
I love the card of the dental nurse. She will retire in 10 or 15 years, and will have your card to remind her of the wonderful years during her career.
As always these are great! PS sorry to be late getting back around to say hello #MMBC Melynda @scratchmadefood!
These are awesome! Love all the little details—hidden glasses, chili pepper, the "zany" banner. You’ve totally nailed their vibes! No surprise your customer keeps coming back!
Beautiful cards, amazing 👏 details ❤️ and colours.
