mini - diy :: red packets

i keep telling myself that i'll start crafting soon! i have so many ideas and tutes in my to-craft list! but its kinda daunting to get started. so we take baby steps! 

this afternoon, i needed a red packet and realized that i don't have a single one at home! 


so got creative with my scrapbooking & origami paper!


trace & cut. its so simple i reckon a little kid could help out!
i managed to whip up a few of these during blake's nap!


also, i realized that this is our first time we're celebrating chinese new year after we got married! for the uninitiated, you start giving red packets (filled with cash!) to the children / rellies after you get married! but we weren't scrimping on the money! i promise!

we're thrilled to catch up with our family this year and daniel's mummy will be here with us this year too! yipppppeeee!!

p.s. i guarantee that this year we're going to get the "when are you trying for #2?" question at least 10 times. im putting money on it.
