“A birthday is a delightful thing to have…
So I’ll wish you many happy returns of the day!”

After having my Grumpy Old Bilbo card in the shop for a while, I decided perhaps a Cheerful Young Bilbo card was in order, for contrast. Bilbo has a cheerful bright hobbit-sized birthday cake behind him, and the first of no doubt many kegs of ale, and he’s all dressed in his finery for a party.

If you’ve got a friend that loves The Hobbit but isn’t quite so grumpy as all that, you can wish them a happy birthday with this card.

Many Happy Returns, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.

Birthday Flower

Birthday Flower by Amy Crook

Birthday Flower by Amy Crook

I was going to a friend’s nice’s 18th birthday party, and in lieu of a gift I decided to hand-draw her birthday card. I picked this bright tropical hibiscus flower. I remember that I Googled something related to a trip she was taking and these flowers came up, and so I broke out my Copic markers and drew this for her. I’m not sure if she still has the original, but I’m pleased that I remembered to scan it before I gave it to her.
