We finally did our baby announcement. Feeling much better around week 14, I started thinking of ideas to announce this news to our extended family and friends. While browsing, I came across some really adorable baby booties origami and this awesome tutorial by PaperMade – Origami & Crafts. Perfect for a couch-lounging-DIY project (my current state – 90% of the time at home). Started experimenting with 6 x 6 inches scrapbook paper and soon realised I need thicker card stock. When it’s too thin, it rips at the front fold and if it’s too thick, it gets trickier with the folding. After multiple failed attempts, I found that vellum worked wonderfully! I had a textured A4 white vellum and cut it down to 8 x 8 inches. Paired them with some mini eyelets and brads as I found them to look more elegant, compared to satin ribbons.
For our baby announcement photo, MingHan did a home photoshoot with our wedding sneakers. Can’t believe how tiny it looked till it was photographed with our shoes!
