Happy Birthday to Nick!

My brother-in-law got given a first jump course for his 30th birthday last month, and since there aren't exactly any parachute stamps in the SU! catalogue I had to improvise, so I used the All in the Family and added a harness and parachute, by hand. Don't look too closely at the drawing, there's a reason that I use stamps...
This card is very late since I was in hospital with Jack (the first time) on Nick's birthday, but since it is so late, I was able to colour the little dude to match. Here are some pics of Nick's jump (courtesy of my Father-in-law, Bob).
