Ikon Creations – home made greeting cards! – Randomness #0

My little sister, Ikonkar Kaur, has been creating hand made cards for people for the past few years, and I decided its finally time to get her some recognition. Although she is not very proud of them, I figured this was a good way to show her progress. Here are some pictures of cards she has made

Camera Case Birthday Present

It was my little sisters( Ikonkar Kaur) birthday on Sep 25th, and she received a new digital camera as a gift. For my gift, I decided to make her a case to go with the camera. It was something she needed, and this way she wouldn’t have to waste money. It was also the only thing I could think of. I wanted to make something new anyways, and this was my perfect opportunity. I wanted to make a good product, something that functioned well, but didn’t look too bad either, so that she would feel happy using it. I won’t go into details of how I made it, because I think the pictures are self explanatory. ( and I doubt anyone would read it anyways..) I really enjoyed making this, because firstly it had a purpose and reason to be made, and it was a challenging experience. It was quite difficult to figure out the next step a lot of times. This is also the first one of my creations involving sewing, which is really hard when you’re going through like 10 layers.. (the needle got a little bent). I’m satisfied with the way it came out, and fortunately my sister likes it too. It was designed the hold the camera very snugly, and provide good protection.

Card Wallet

My walle’s kept wearing out quickly, and they would start fraying and tearing at the edges. They were also kind of fat. This was probably because most of them were cheap :p. One day i was thinking about making my own, and at first i thought of using duct tape. Then i tried to think of something that would be more durable, and i thought of playing cards. I also thought it would be cool because i am a magician. So after a long time of planning and cutting and taping, i had myself a playing card wallet. It has velcro so it will stay closed. With all the stuff, it’s as thin as my old wallet was when empty. It has also proven to be quite durable so far. In it I carry my school ID card, a credit card, a library card, a bus pass, a few bills cash, 10 business cards, 2 brush-ups, 3 band-aids, a few loose coins, a pen, and a strike anywhere match. Here are a few pics:
