Niels and Anneliese asked me to illustrate the birth announcement of their son Thomas. They loved the custom tree cards I had made for baby Iza and Roderik, and they already knew exactly what kind of little personal elements they wanted to see in their tree... A tennis racket, a football (very sporty people, obviously!), a train, a little tricycle, a blue balloon and their cat (who's after the balloon of course ;-)) . It was great working with this kind and enthusiastic couple and making them this special card for their baby boy. Congratulations dear Niels and Anneliese!
