Profile Silhouette Frame Tag

Today was my last day for part-time seasonal job at Calloway's Nursery. I now have a new job with a Hallmark store.

Made this tag for the woman we call my daughter's Texas Grandmother since she was there when my daughter was born.

Photographed with a silhouette drawing of my daughter when she was younger. She was at a day care and a woman sketched each of the children without having to have them pose; she just watched them from outside room & sketched.
