SHERA'S BORDER

Today followed Marlene to Curtin for a card making class. Meant to take some pictures...... Brot my camera BUT forgot my memory stick. So...... just gonna put this one pic here, taken by Yee Boon...I really like this pic...we are raising our hands and feet because we are kaki tangan kaki tangan...!! Hehehe.... You can read more about the class with pictures here . ^^ Reaching home after class, my parents suddenly ada mood for tea and mooncakes..... so for the first time we had tea in our 'garden'.... relaxing..... hehehe...... i have never been a mooncake person but i enjoyed the moment :)

Ok, here comes the detailed photos. First let me show you our messy work station. Haha. Thinking what good could come out of this mess?? Taaadddaaahhhh...................... I'm very pleased with all of them ^^ They really show heart in making them. Not only that, they show creativity too. If you compare their cards with mine, most of them are way different already.

Many even recycled the scallope-punched paper too because they think its too nice to throw away (*touched*) And talking about scallops, a little thank you note to Marlene for helping me get the punches for and to Marcus for the trouble of bringing them back for me ^^.

I'll post up their individual productions in the next post ^^
