Grandad - 1st Class Legend Train

Grandad - 1st Class Legend Train

by Rocket 68

A striking, vintage-inspired greeting for a much-loved grandfather, this design pairs bold, retro typography with a hand-drawn illustration of a classic locomotive. The large, cream "GRANDAD" headline sits proudly above a dynamic steam train sketch, while confident black lettering reads "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" and a friendly cursive signs off with "1st Class Legend!". The overall composition evokes nostalgia and a sense of character, ideal for someone who appreciates timeless style and a touch of humour.

Rendered in a limited palette dominated by deep green, cream and black, the artwork balances strong type with expressive illustration to create a memorable focal point. The card's tone is affectionate and celebratory without being fussy, making it a great choice for marking a grandfather's birthday with personality and warmth. Perfect for anyone looking to recognise a special grandad as a true 'first class' legend.
