Birthday card

Hi! Happy Sunday!

Popping in real quick between baking ginger bread with the boy (a wonderful tradition) and going out for some shopping and celebrating the traditional start of Christmas Shopping. There will be glögg, sales, Santas, Christmas music and much more. It will be fun.

Here is a card I’ve done for a co worker. He turned 80 last week, and is still working, though the past year not as much as he used to. He is our Professor Emeritus and was in charge of our department when I first started working at the University and I’m really happy he is still around.

I used this sketch from Freshly Made Sketches:

Thanks for stopping by and have a great Sunday!!!
