For the past week I have been working on plastering Steve’s MacBook (at his request) with decals. I have finally finished.
If you’ve seen his MacBook in a previous post, we had a mushroom where Toad is right now. I decided to replace the mushroom because the more characters I put on, the more the mushroom [...]
I had made the decal of mario with the hammer as a graduation present for Jeff, my future little brother-in-law who just graduated from UBC and got accepted into the education program. I had to present the gift somehow. Jeff’s a big Nintendo fan (as we all are), and I had these paper mushrooms at [...]
We’ve been trying to find coloured vinyl for me to experiment with decals. After a tedious search (Michaels sending us to Home Depot, and vice versa), we finally found a roll of UNCUT black vinyl for me to play. I shoved the roll of vinyl in the face of the Michaels employee who claimed they [...]
For a walk through on how I did this please refer to my previous post on Paper Bowser.
All I have to say about this project is that Peach is such a high maintenance princess! You have to see the details where her hands are holding the parasol. Cutting was actually no problem, it was the [...]
For the first time I can walk you through this:
I started with an image. This one was pretty good as all the black lines are connected (except for his nostril and one circle on his bracelet). If the lines aren’t connected, I would have to link them myself before cutting. I stapled the printout to [...]
Materials: coloured paper
This is a card I made for a great friend who is all about Macs. His nickname is Air so I thought I’d make him a card in the form of the MacBook Air.
Inspired by Apple’s ad of the MacBook Air, I tried to recreate the envelope. I grabbed an old manila envelope for the [...]
I did this mostly because I was itching to do some more cutting after the Mother’s Day card =)
There were 4 sheets of paper that I cut through: printed template, white cardstock, and 2 white printer papers. Due to the thickness of the stack of papers I had to turn it over and cut from [...]
Tribute to the Canucks part 2: the giant window logo. Back in 2001 when I bought my first Canucks flag, my dad wouldn’t let me put it on the car, so I used to have it on my bedroom window that faces out into our street.
After my family moved out and I was left with [...]
A tribute to the Canucks! Found some pictures from a while back. First, the Canucks pumpkin. Being the perfectionist that I am, I have to mention that the logo I carved is missing one ice detail, it still bugs me! Anyway, this was from Hallowe’en 2005.
I found the pumpkin to be a very different medium [...]
