Sometimes a card need not be complicated or elaborate…it can be simple as long as it is right from the heart. I drew this v-day card after a sudden spark. I was feeling at that moment that life without someone will be very dark, gloomy, stormy, cold and dead…and with that someone, life will be sunny, cheerful, hopeful and beautiful. I simply wanted to convey this feeling in the card as well as how much the person meant to me and how life will never be the same again without him =)

I used to love doing cross stitch…and once I made this for someone special. In the past, I will send the cross stitch for framing…but nowadays, not many people like to hang stuff on their wall anymore. So I decided to use it as the cover of a big square photo album. Furthermore, the wordings were also very suitable for the album, hee!
Cross stitch can be personalised by adding wordings, modifying colours of the picture etc. However, cross stitch is very time consuming…and may take weeks to complete. Nevertheless, I like the feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction when it is finally completed =)
p/s…If you have left over cross stitch thread, you can also use it to make a bookmark in the form of a friendship band.
This year, V-day is on the first day of Chinese New Year. Hmm…what a coincidence! Despite not having the habit of celebrating V-day…I still and always will enjoy receiving flowers =) It’s quite unlikely that any girl would dislike receiving flowers anyway…hee!
However, the prices of flowers on such occasions are always so expensive. And the worst part is that even if you order/reserve in advance, it does not guarantee that the flowers you get are fresh…haiz.
Anyway…just an alternative for all those out there…if you have the time, try making some paper flowers…it’s really not that difficult…and you can wrap the flowers up into a nice bouquet. You can also get some ideas from my subsequent post.
I will be posting some handmade miniature paper flowers for sale. I’ve made only 7 bouquets as I have sweaty palms and folding miniature flowers tend to be quite a challenge for me =)
