Fun, is the word

Thursday, March 19, 2009
Morning, everyone!!! I just make a quick post about what I did last night. My very-first handmade card. I made two of them, small one. No large card at this moment since I'm scare to waste my paper. Next time... when I get more time to explore. One for my brother who far away from here, Dubai and the other one for mr.boyfriend. I enjoyed the whole process. It is very challenging on making decision, which colour, what style, etc etc. It's fun. So, here comes the small card that I made last night.

when the ribbon at the bottom

At first, I put the ribbon at the bottom and showed it to my brother and sister for opinion. Both of them said, 'it looks 'empty' '. Hmm...and I looked it. True. *think..think..think... Then, I tried to put it at the top. It looked much better now. Well.. at least it doesn't look 'empty' now. I think.. :p

Beside, we edited and ordered a book (made by Apple) with all their photos in and ready to be post. I also added a ribbon and a silver bucket on it. Hope they will like it. :)

the book and my small card

Besides that, I also made a card for mr.boyfriend after he sent me Mr. Zorro (donkey/cow) and a small notebook. When I open the box, my sister asked, 'Sis, why Johnny gave you a donkey?' 'I don't know.' Then when I saw him online, i asked him. At first, he laughhh. 'It's a COW. 'moo-mooo'. Arghhhh.. I see - It's a COW!!! lol... Anyway, I made him a 'Green and classic' kinda feel of card. It ready to be post as well.

..and the card

At first, I tended to keep it square. After a while, I think maybe round one corner. hmm..maybe this side as well.. here..and here... Omg..At the end, I rounded every single corner. A very simple card.

I will make more and any suggestions or opinions are most welcome. I tend to keep this post short but failed because I have so many things to share with you guys. Oh well.. I hope you guys still enjoy reading this post. Off to shower now. You all have a lovely day and I'll be back soooon :)

xoxo
