C will be getting her PhD in June and her parents are throwing a party to celebrate. I'm in charge of making/designing about 300 cards! This past weekend we made 88.

We were going to order them from Hallmark or Papyrus, however, their cards were too boring and expensive. Here are the cards we made. I'm proud to say that each card is different. They come bearing stickers. When you open them you'll find a fresh postcard. The first card design took me about 3 hours. Now with the right material, it takes about 8-12 minutes to put one together. Man, I never knew how many different types of paper there were!

My Cousin's Blog

My cousin, Pheak, blogs about customizing second handed and cheap material into a fresh pricy look. She rarely updates but when she does I get an email. Here are two new updates I wanted to share as ideas for the holiday season:

The Apron It's funky and cheap to make. Plus there's a picture of tooth-less Melear.

Christmas Tree using dead branches.

Her site has some other neat projects. And most of the items pictured were made by her and G. With that said, she loves comments. Leave them.
