I like that you mentioned that card sketches would be a good way to come up with a greeting card. I will be having a business trip in a month which just so happens to be the time when my husband would be going back to his hometown to celebrate his mother’s birthday. I will probably just have to give her a hand-drawn greeting card as compensation for my absence.
