BUSINESS CARD TRIAL

Today I fancied the idea of creating business cards to carry on me just in case I so happen to run into anyone important or needing my services. ...And maybe because I was pretty bored.




Too simple? This is one of those times I wish I had the luxury of a letterpresser. Letterpress makes paper look 1000x better, even when design is lacking.

I recently bought a Fiskars Paper Trimmer and a bunch of other rotary blades to go along with it.




Fun with my scallop blade.





This is the second time I've cut myself since buying this paper cutter. Both cuts were from the same blade (the top one is from last week) and both by trying to change the blade.

Yes, I am practicing my paper cutting skills. Part of the reason why I'm so bad at it would have to be that I can be a major klutz sometimes. I don't get along with blades... The stab wound on my left thigh can account for that. Not to mention the time I cut off a part of my pinky finger with a pair of scissors. And the time I sliced open my thumb in the woodshop during college. Hah... Hah.

{ABOUT}

JANET CHANG



I'm obsessed with the customization of anything and everything because I believe a one-of-a-kind item reveals the self and transforms ownership into something special. For now, graphic design is only a hobby of mine that I picked up from architecture school, but some days I tickle the thought of making it into a part-time career.
