Chocolate Brocade paper
So I self-loath quite a bit.
I find fault with stuff I make and there's no convincing otherwise that it is anything other than sub par. Just the other day I wrote a card out and hated my handwriting and the sentence construction so much, it never got sent.
It's rather paralysing, to put it mildly.
But yesterday night, I wrapped a gift and made a card and felt happy with the results. (Crooked edges, ignored!) I don't think I made any cards last year, but a very stimulating Tuesday evening in Papier and Ikea kick started the urge to create.
It's satisfying to feel like I've done something right. Here's to more of this satisfaction soon.

the cutest paper bunnies ever in a box?
i think someone's finding her niche.
hey Athalia,
I am SO happy to read your message on my blog, not to mention noticing your unconcealed excitement.
yes, I was home, but only for 2 weeks (6--18 May). I had to return to US for my exam on 19th May and of course ...summer fieldwork.
you did cross my mind, really, but I was too busy studying to make any calls/meet up. My bad, I guess a call wouldn't have been disastrous.
nevertheless, I am planning on returning for Chinese New Year next Jan!!!! YES!!! let's meet up then?
and if you are married by then, give me an angpow too :)
