DIO or "Did-It-Ourselves" was coined while Doms and I were making our Will You Be Cards for our Ninongs and Ninangs.
Well, I must say or DIO project turned out well and good. So how did we do it? Here are the materials that we used.
Disclaimer
Doms and I bought the colored papers and the lace tape in Paper Market, Raffles Mall. I love this store! It houses different kinds of craft materials, papers and accessories. We were there for more than an hour looking and matching papers and laces.
So the cutting that we did was just simple cutting and not the hard-core cutting. Most of our time and energy were spent in debating the right color for the WYB background and the type of font.
We bought 4 pieces of purple 12 x 12 polka-dot board (1.40 sgd each), 7 pieces of pink edged polka-dot board (1.20 sgd each) , 3 pieces of lace tape with different designs (11 sgd per pack) and 20 pieces glossy photo paper (2 sgd per pack).
I love the lace tape that we bought! Doms was the one who decided which lace to get.
Of course our DIO project wouldn't be possible without the help of Doms' gears aka "my precious". Apple iMAC and Canon printer.The creative inputs all came from Doms. I just added some of my opinions about the WYB cards. Here it is!
Thanks to Graphizar for the caricature!So after some snipping and snapping and after we've added up all the materials together, the finished products looked like this.
Lagot, parang hindi pantay yung ribbon! Hahaha...
