Band 6.5

Dear Sonam and Mukta,

I hope this letter finds you in good health and your family as well. I want to thank both of you for such a wonderful gift and the card for my wedding ceremony.

I'm very pleased after receiving a box of acrylic colours and a handmade card with some memorable pictures attached to it during our study time. I miss you a lot, having seen these photographs, and the quality time we spent together.

Moreover, my friends, I have recently used these colours, and I made a beautiful couple portrait of my husband and me from one of my wedding photographs. My husband liked it very much. I don't know how to express my thanks because this gift is very special and totally unique among all gifts, and it will be helpful to continue my drawing skills in the future.

Thank you both for your love, with such a useful present and a creative handmade card.

Hope to see you soon.

With love,

Priya

Band 6.5

My Dear Pooja,

I hope this letter finds you and your family in good health. I want to let you know how delighted I'm for such a wonderful present and a card, which you presented at my wedding ceremony.

I'm overjoyed when I received this handmade card with some memorable pictures of our college time which you attached to it. It's such an appealing creativity. When I opened the box of watercolours, my joy knew no bounds. You're well aware of my passion for colours. You're such an amazing person, my buddy. Moreover, the most remarkable aspect of you is how loving and caring you're. I'm at a loss for words to convey my gratitude for your extraordinary love.

Recently, I made a beautiful portrait of my husband and me from one of my wedding photographs. My partner very much admired it. After seeing this painting, he asked me to learn more to become a professional artist. It's really special and unique gift among all. It'll be helpful to continue my drawing skills in the future.

I'm grateful for your affection.

With affection,

Suruchi
