It has been a busy week getting cards done for the August babies and I forgot to mention, that on 5 August before the divejunkie flew down to Brisbane with her fiance to start a new life there (for the next 3 years or so), I had to start my first card-design project as soon as possible. It was then that I realised how bad I was at crafts when my attempts to craft motifs were very futile. In the end, I settled with a very simple design due to the lack of time, and got it delivered on time. Thank God.

Today, it was much worse when I woke up at 9am from a call and realised that tonight I will be meeting a secondary school friend whose birthday happens to be tomorrow, and I will not have any other time to pass her a birthday gift. So I hurriedly used Shabbyprincess‘ design kit and made something not very authentic but was presentable enough. Worst thing was, I’d lost my old photos when I’d accidentally wiped off my hard disk and thankfully I still had a couple left to make do with the design:

So I got it printed at Lucky Plaza (a total RIPOFF!!!) and had it mounted:

This is how it looks in actual presentation – it props up like a photo frame which can be placed on her table so it’s yay!
