The Making of A Cardboard Train

TEXT and IMAGE by POPPY SEED

Cardboards are magical. 

You can transform them into many things 

such as a farmhouse, a Ferrari or a ferry.

Here is the cardboard train making tutorial.

Step 1: Select the cardboards according to the size

Step 2: Cut out the windows & doors with blade.

Step 3: You can wrap the box with colourful paper. 

Or like me, you can just paint it.

Step 4: Last but least, 

don't forget about the wheels, exhausts, curtain, sign, food tray, steering, bell, carpet and a doggy. 

The more details you put in, the more exciting kids you will find...  

Just like this one. :)

Choo-choo Train Themed Birthday Invites

"I am having so much fun making my birthday invite envelopes"

"Look, I am stamping the envelope with my white fingers, 

and then I draw the little rabbit's ears and eyes and feet"

"Haha, they look too cute!"

"Ta-da, my birthday invites are ready to be sent out."

"My grandpa, grandma, gonggong and popo are loving these invites."

"When I turn 30, I am going to dig out these cards again.

Hmmm, I wonder how it would feel like."
