Brilliant Derek, you're becoming very accomplished with the use of cards. I bet they're over the moon with this.

40 x 30cms on Paper. My nephew and his step nephew on a beach in Cornwall. Don't this as a request from his partner for his 50th birthday mid April. All from a photo she supplied. Copied it, but with subtle variations, my colours. All with cards.
