Anniversary Booklet

Being me, I like to give Ach handmade cards. Quite unfortunate for Ach, since I am the least artistic person he will ever meet, he would have to settle with sloppy handmade cards. Hihihi.
So our anniversary gave me another opportunity to make one of those cards.

Initially I wanted to make either beaded cards or quilled cards, tapi both projects sound too difficult and time-consuming. FYI, I had done both cards and oo em ji I wouldn't wanna do it again. Then I decided to make a felt card. Then ding dong ding dong I decided to make an anniversary story booklet instead of a card, and I'd use felt for the cover. I am brilliant  I tell yah.

Next challenge is how to tell our story in few pages. Since I am not the world's best artist, kimi prolly draws better than I do, I have decided to use existing Love is... strips that would fit into my storyline. Gigih ni aku cari satu-satu and edit dekat photoshop. I hope they don't take legal action against me.  Lepas dah jumpa pictures to be used, I designed the cover and arranged the pictures to tell our story.


Final Product

I'm actually very happy with how the booklet turned out, that's if I close one eye over the super messy stitches lah. It took me 6 hours altogether to finish this baby, and those six hours really paid off when Ach loved it. At least I think he loved it. =D

Next project? Tak tau.

aaa that was the biggest problem. I carelessly left the cover design on his working desk, tapi dah pasrah je la kan nak buat macam mana?

I had to take half day off to finish this, then luckily ada sekali tu ach had to work on a saturday, jadi pulun habis lah.
