teacher’s gift

sheloy — Mon, 26 Dec 2011 03:30:04 +0000

When I was thinking of a Christmas card for E’s teacher, a Christmas tree shape with the kids photos immediately came to mind. As one of the class parents, I had asked the mums and dad in the class if they would want to pool money to buy gifts for Mrs. Jansons and most agreed. So with the money collected I bought a mastercard giftcard (which if you believe is not really marketed, it’s mostly giftcards for specific stores which are) and a hand and feet lotion set. I had a little bit of a hard time trying to finish the layout, it was like the concept was just up to the tree after that I sort of drew a blank at first. Well after going back and forth through different papers I had finally finished the layout. Printed it and put it in a picture frame.

When mum was here visiting she asked me to make something for her to give to her friends this Christmas. I wasn’t really able to do it until about a month or so ago. She asked to make different cards/memento for 3 different groups. I wasn’t allowed to post it online beforehand (I posted something she had me do last year on facebook and one of the intended recipients somehow saw it) but now that she has given the gifts during their various Christmas parties I can finally post it here.

2009 calendar

After procrastinating yet again and finally giving up with doing the calendar layouts myself. I decided on getting the 2009 8×10 wall calendar by Zoe Pearn. I had 2 sets of 8×10 calendars printed at BigW (the cheapest rate I could find, yet still put a dent in the wallet hahaha!) for the grandparents and printed 4x6s for our siblings on our home printer. I took the prints to Ofis to have them bound. Good thing my BIL and SIL were here for a visit so they can take the calendars back to Manila for us. I do have to print one more set for our use.
