we are making original, hand-made cards!


--------------------------------

It's very hard to find a good card at shop. This is how I feel after shopping usually...

I always wanted to buy something very ''unique and original'', but not too much decorated. It didn't take me long to start actually making one by myself, in my original design. Back to my childhood, I quite liked drawing or handicraft, which is very much like what I'm currently doing as making hand-made cards.

Since then, I have sent hundreds of cards that I took a while to make one by one. they often give me some compliments or encouragements, which is another motivation for me to keep working on hand-made cards.

Although people are getting less card-senders (they send e-mail instead), one thing true is that we feel very warm when we receive great cards! If you give a hand-made card to your friends, they can be graceful to have such a special, only one card in the world! When you visit their home later, if you can find your card on display, wouldn't it great?

"choose cards as you choose your clothes!'' is all what I want to say. Express yourself well and deliver your feeling! impress your friends with hand-made card, something creative now!
