It's a boy

June...always rumbling! Apart from lot of June brides, there are a lot of new life coming! Having 4 of my friends "upgraded" to parents, such a broody season! haa...

Initially, I was intent to do a card to my girlfriend, whose gave birth a baby girl. But with no reason, I've made "it's a boy" card instead! Perhaps I like blue colours, do not say that I am old fashion. heehee...As for baby girl card, didn't know when will I begin to make, the little girl is full month soon.

六月...總是鬧轟轟的,除了眾多六月新娘,還有很多的新生命的降臨!身邊竟有四位朋友在六月升格當媽當爸的,還真是個多產的季節唷!呵呵~~

我也被這些喜悅感染,動手做了這張卡。最初的原意是要做一張給我的好朋友,祝賀她誕下了女寶寶;可是就不知道什麼原因做起了男寶寶卡。也許是我比較喜歡藍色吧,不要說我重男輕女喔。至於女寶寶版,也不知道什麼時候會動手弄,寶寶都快彌月了!

Update...

The card I posted yesterday had actually arrived and my friend had forgotten to tell me. heehee...

Alright, this card is to convey my regards to her registration of marriage and appreciation of our friendship as she plays an important role in my craft making journey. She helps me to stash some of the tools & supplies and even share her knowledge in card making & felt sewing.

Thank you my friend and wishing you happy ever after!

呵呵...今天接到通知昨天po的那張卡其實已經安全抵達目的地了!呼~郵局總算沒有讓我失望,只是朋友以為之前已經通知我了!

這張卡的實質意義是遙送我對這位朋友的結婚祝福以及感謝我們之間的友誼。她在我手工製作的道路上幫了我不少忙;並且分享和交流有關卡片製作和不織布縫製的知識。

謝謝妳~也借此再度祝福妳幸福永遠!!

A Simple Card

I've kept this post 3 weeks ago as I wanted to have a surprise for my friend. Well, it seems the card has lost its way to reach the destination. Can you believe it takes more than 3 weeks to post a card within Malaysia, this is ridiculous and what's wrong with our postal service??!!!

I've been experiencing lot and lot this type of problem, okay...fine...forget about it! I rather don't demolish everyone's mood.

Here it goes the pictures of my "lost" card...heehee
In this card, I used Martha Steward Heart punch on corrugated paper in different direction and overlapped on colour cardstock as we as the Leaf punch from Carla, I scraped the vein by using back of the craft knife. Lastly, I embellished with ric rac and stamped sentiment for the final touch up.

The inner is simple, I stamped the "congratulation" in between the bracket.

This is handmade envelope for the card...

因為想要給朋友驚喜,所以一直把這則寫好的帖收存快三個星期了。但是沒想到郵局再度的讓我失望。寄出快三個星期的卡片好像石沉大海般,難不成國內發送也需要多過兩個星期的時間?我們的郵局到底在搞些什麼呀?這樣的服務未免讓人心寒...吼~

算了,對遺失郵件這事我早已經麻木了,沒什麼大不了...只要習以為常就好!

還是來看看我這張卡的“遺照”吧...呸~呸~呸~這是好兆頭的卡片唷!哈哈哈...

這是一張非常簡單的卡片,主要工具是心型和葉子造型打洞器。我以不同方向在瓦楞紙上打出心型並黏貼在另外的心型色卡上,葉脈則以刀背劃;再以緞帶點綴並蓋上祝語。內頁也非常簡約,只是在括弧裡蓋上了"congratulation"罷了。

對了,卡片的封套也是我自己做的...(臭屁ing...) :Þ

PS: I'll update this blog if the addressee received this card.
注:我會修改這個帖如果手件人收到了這張卡片。
