DIY Envelopes. This little DIY is by no means new or particularly innovative, but fun nonetheless!

Happy Chinese New Year :) All you need is paper (whatever colours you like), glue, scissors, and a paint pen (also in whatever colour you like!). Step 1: Cut the paper using the template (or create your own size/shape and draw it onto the paper).

Step 3: Get drawing! Thank you, your sign-up request was successful! Given email address is already subscribed, thank you! Please provide a valid email address. Oops. Sea Lemon.
