Happy Birthday – Retro

I designed this greeting card for my friend’s 50th birthday. I didn’t want to mention her age so instead of writing ‘Happy 50th Birthday’, I made the card in the style of 60’s. Besides, she is a horse lover, so I implemented the horse and the word ‘hippo’ instead of ‘happy’. ‘Hippo’ – is also a words’ game: ‘hippo’ – ‘hippie’ and ‘hippo’ – a combining form appearing in loanwords from Greek, where it meanthorse’.
