Happy Barkday is a series of fun greeting cards,
focused on dog breeds.
Labrador: "You deserve a holiday - a really long one. Happy retirement!"
I designed five cards for each of the five festivities I selected (birthday, 18th birthday, Valentine's Day, graduation, and retirement), for a total of 25 illustrations.
Pug: "You're not really sharp - but we love you anyway. Happy birthday!"
A clean look at some of my favourites:
Chihuahua: "You've got a big head - compared to your body."
French Bulldog: "You can finally rest - after all that work!"
Husky: "Meeting you was so romantic!"
Great Dane: "You grew so tall - watch your paws!"
Poodle: "You're phenomenal - what a great talent!"
Akita Inu: "You love your job - and it shows!"
Pointer: "I saw you - and was hooked!"
Golden Retriever: "You're a party animal - prepare for this one!"
