Choir Commission Card

I think that the members of my choir, (where I sell lots of cards for choir funds) are slowly becoming 'trained'. Instead of me having to make notes of what they want on the special, bespoke cards which I make for them, they now arrive with notes in hand with details such as interests and preferred colours etc for each recipient.
This card is for the daughter of one of the choir members. She wanted the sentiment, plus an image of tennis. Sadly this Penny Black stamp is of badminton, but I masked the shuttlecock before inking and am pretending that the 'tennis' ball has been hit out of sight!! MAybe they won't realise! I think it's cute anyway.
It is for several challenges
Penny Black - Let's get punchy
Allsorts - Animals
The paper is Cuddly Buddly, and the embossing is Cuttlebug. The border punch is from SU.
The sentiment was computer generated.
