【DIY｜自制】30 Balloons and the Ow Birthday Cardl｜30粒气球加猫头鹰生日卡

March 16, 2014, Sunday

✈1

Why 30 balloons?? Because the birthday guy is 30 years old so I was thinking making something symbolize that. And this is like kind of line the same idea I found online. Since my card wasn't as nice as the one I found online so I don't put the picture here......hehe!! So you can't make any comparison with that also (evil laugh....)

***************************************************************************

30粒气球，其实我最先的设计是要做个热气球，但好像很平平所以找来30粒气球，正好这也是收件者的生日岁数，正是刚刚好，不多不少，一个完整的数字！

✈2

I expect the 30 balloons have different colors each, so here I dig out all my color papers. And it was my first time realized I've so many colors paper......(so next time should control myself not to buy more colors paper though!)

***************************************************************************

要做到30粒气球，当然要有30种不一样的颜色纸啦，为求达到七彩的效果，我在外头的时候一直保佑我家里是刚好有那么多颜色纸才好，因为一直买一直买，不用又很浪费，所以我尽量都是等用完后再买新的。

✈3

All about that base, all about that base....(okay, that's not relevant to this, that was just a song I like!) I was thinking to make A5 size of it, but I've accidentally cut the balloons way too small...so in order to redo the balloon, I might just change the size of the base...this's easier, right??

***************************************************************************

本来想说做A5大小的卡片，但是我气球剪出来的大小太小了。 一是重做底部，一是重做气球，任谁都想到是重做底部比较简单啊，所以我就把A5大小的它改为四方形的大小。。。（嗯，有点好像偷工减料的感觉！）

✈4

Again I found some strings inside my string box (I do have lots of different string inside that, what about I write a post about it next time, hahaha!! Hope you get shocked by that...)

***************************************************************************

超级方便的，又是从我装线子的盒子内找到的绳子，这真是一个绳子八宝箱。 找天我应该写一篇分享这奇特的箱子，收了将近20多年的箱子，因为它是我从我三姐那边A来的（妹妹每次都会跟姐姐讨这样那样的嘛！）

✈5

Wanted to write "Happy Birthday" but seems like it wasn't long enough for that, so I thought about writing "Make a Wish", that is way shorter, right? And can stick a four leaves clover sticker aside as a "good luck" wish, not bad ya!!

***************************************************************************

本来想要写的“Happy Birthday”，但由于它太长了，所以我才换去“Make a Wish”。 不过这也不赖嘛！ 至少我后面还可以放个四叶草代表幸运。

✈6

So over all it looks like this...guess what I'm not very satisfy with it, don't know why...it just doesn't have the feeling for me that I'll got attractive to it when I first saw it...so I just give 60% for this!! =[

***************************************************************************

整体来说它就“长”这样，失望的说。。。我只给它60分，不知道为什么，我只是觉得它没有给我一种一看到就很喜欢的感觉，就是少了一些东西，但却又讲不出是什么。

✈7

Then now proceed to the inside. Usually I'm very lazy to design inside of the card, I would just leave it blank, but since the receiver like owl, and I can't even squeeze in an owl on it. So I decided to "put" it inside.

***************************************************************************

有了封面，接下来就是内部，其实我每次都会假意不想做内部的设计。。。因为我很懒惰。。。但事后我才发觉我少放了收件者喜欢的猫头鹰，所以才另加这个设计。

✈8

Found owl picture in some of the card designing book, make a photocopy of it, then paste it on top of the color paper that you want, follow the lines to cut it. Thus this's result, not bad...considered acceptable to me, hehe!!

***************************************************************************

很容易的从卡片制作书了找到了猫头鹰的图案，把它复印一张出来，用胶纸粘在颜色纸上跟着线割出来。 结果还好它没有走样，因为这是我第一次这样做，多么担心我唯一复印的一张猫头鹰就这样被我割坏，然后我还要去印多一次。

✈12

Have you ever wondered what did I do to the owl?? Here's the design, not bad, right??? I think it looks okay to me...just that I shouldn't all in white as the background, but I do remember I did some decorations on the "box" but forgot to take pictures of it!

***************************************************************************

啦～啦～啦！ 还不赖吧？ 只是背景白了一点，不过我确实事后有做了一些类似礼物盒子的颜色纸贴在白色“盒子”的上面，只是忘了拍照片（有时候专心过头就会忘了拍步骤嘛！）

✈13

You thought this was easy to make??? Hell, NO!! I've been trying enough errors in order get to this point. Even I can get all the scales from reference book, but it doesn't go as easy as you thought after you've make a try on it though!

***************************************************************************

看似很简单？？ 实话实说，这是超级难的，连续弄到那个纸都快烂了才真的做到这个效果。 不然猫头鹰都是一直不是只是出现半身就是一直碰到那“白色盒子”

✈14

Finally I've done the card and with the presents sent to the receiver...... BUT you know what!! Few days later I received a package by mail, I was like "Who send stuff to me??" Then I looked at the package "Why is it look so familiar???" Holly crap!! THIS WAS THE SAME PACKAGE I SENT OUT.......can you imagine how mad I was when I got it?? I almost wanted to hit my head to the wall......I wrote my address on the receiver box then wrote the receiver address on the sender box!!! GREAT..."Why am I so SMART??"

***************************************************************************

好不容易完成了，很开心连同礼物的拿去邮政局寄信去。。。。。。谁知道几天后，邮差来敲门，我当时还在想“是谁送我东西啊？” 当我签收了后就觉得怎么这么熟悉呢？？？   原来我是粗心到把我跟收件人的地址调转，所以我是自己寄给自己。。。我怎么可以那么“聪明”？？？ 无法想象我当时整个人简直是要疯掉的感觉，似乎想要去撞墙了。。。所以这个照片是我再寄第二次的照片。。。现在再次想回去，我想除了笨跟粗心，我一言难尽。。。
