Secret Door Card



An additional pocket or additional space is actually what I'm aiming for. I just chanced upon this card which is called a "Secret Door Card". Though this is not my original idea, I find this very fun and entertaining when I first created one. It's a type of card that will keep you thinking...more like a puzzle piece for me. Why a puzzle piece? Well, decorating it takes some effort and calculation with the measurements on the arrangements if you wanted to put in pictures. Most of the consideration goes to the mechanism of the card which is the hidden space in between. Thus, the logic in it makes it really interesting.

The card measures 6 inches by 8 inches. The whole space is available for a big picture or smaller ones depending on your preference.

You might want to know what I mean with the secret door. Please see my sample video.

Napkin Fold Card



Probably one of the hardest card to create are for male recipients. Especially when you wanted it to be simple for them but still look creative, or what they normally would refer as "amazing". I personally want to give cards they would appreciate in way that they would say "Wow, this is nice" but not find it too feminine with all the clutter and difficulty of opening.

I found this card design that I think fits the type of person who is really hard to gauge (haha), my brother. I made him a napkin fold card. It's a one pull card that opens like a flower. To remove the feminine presentation, it's folded up like a square shaped napkin. I've also incorporated an accordion style card to hold some pictures and greetings.

The square of the card measures 6 X 6 inches. While the accordion card inside can house 6 pieces of
2 1/2 X 3 inches pictures.


Here's a sample picture for the card:

Paper Bag Wedding Card



I was really nervous at first when a friend asked me to make a wedding card. It's something that I have not done before. Though it is in the same way a happy occasion, it is so much different from a cheerful and carefree birthday card. This one should have some formality and elegance in it, but still has to look lively and joyous. I sure hope that the groom and bride who received it felt loved...and as for me...there's always a first time. But then after this, I might consider making wedding invitations! (Hahaha!)

Most of the paper and colors are in shades of blue and silver color because the motive of the wedding is royal blue. It has four inserts with lots of rooms for photos, all decorated with stamps. The biggest insert measures 61/2 by 7 inches and the smallest measures 2 1/2 by 5 inches. I've added the 10 Maxims of Marriage as the main message of the card (I got it from my Mom, she and my Father are marriage counselors way, way back when we were young).

Here is the sample video of the card I made for the bridal shower/stag party.
