I'm still compiling the improvised tools photos, so I guess I'll start off with one of the cards I made some time back (not the first ever card I made, but rather the earliest of the ones I started documenting).
Simple thank you card (I say 'simple', but it probably took me a few hours just to decide what I wanted to do. Too much of a nitpicky perfectionist) made from apple green cardstock and christmas-tree patterned tissue paper.
The words are handwritten in black Aqualip pen, save for the 'Awesome!' which is from a pack of rub-ons I bought during a craft shop sale in Singapore (it was still expensive! But useful.). The card front is decorated with flower punch-outs (you can see the punch in the picture), as well as tiny butterfly punch-outs. I finished off the cover with scattered dots of light blue/silver glitter glue (RM4.50 from Kinokuniya, I CAN'T FIND IT ANYMORE TT^TT ) so it glittered very prettily in the light.
The envelope is handmade from stiff kraft paper (RM1.50 for a big roll from Popular bookstore, I really really love the texture) and decorated to match the card.
Now that I think about it, I will post a video or a tutorial on how to make those envelopes soon. :)
