Mad Rush Project

I am not hard core when it comes to scrapbooking. It was only once in a blue moon that I will pass by a scrapbook shop and make little purchase of something that caught my eyes. Most of the times, I was quite satisfied with craft stuffs from Daiso. It's pretty bad because I do not really use them. So when the birthday of the girls were coming up, I volunteered to make cards, so that these stuffs can be utilised again! Isn't it the most appropriate reason?

Having said that, I was not impulsive in getting craft tools or materials. Some papers and stick ons were from flying days. Some were given to me by my aunt when she bought them as product shoots props. Some were printed online. Some were during promotion when 1 paper is only for $1 (usu. seasonal theme), 30% storewide, etc.

This June and July was the birthday of another 2 gorgeous. I did not have an inspiration. Just worked on it base on random ideas and because time was running out as I only began the day before the actual celebration.

Surprisingly, I think they turned out quite ok. Except, if you zoom into details on workmanship. And I think the 2 different cards suited the 2 girls coincidentally. 

It got a little messy but I managed to find the stuffs, even with Lucas ransacking for awhile.

Using mostly pattern cutters to create details on already colourful card.

This has more subtle and earthy colours. Texture and details were added with small
fabric tapes at the side and sticking matching colours butterflies. I thought this looked
quite vintage, sort of matched our theme for the party.

It was quite fun cutting and pasting. However, I think I can only do this once in awhile. Not very much my forte. Nevertheless, hope the girls like what they have received.
