Chinese New Year Gifts (The Rabbit)

Album link: 2011 Chinese New Year

It's been almost a year since I announced my resignation on Qisda. Remembering that White held a great year end party for AP team, I think it's my turn to make something for my members. So this time, I decide to send some new year gifts to my project members.

The gifts are special calendars, which you need to fold and unfold it to see the calendar of the next four mouths. I learned the idea from a book which teach students how to make "magical" works; and the motive is that I'd never make anything plain :P

Each calendar is decorated with an origami rabbit, a 春(spring) paper-cut, and a monotype of 辛卯(the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches for the upcoming Chinese year, and it's the year of the Rabbit). What's more, every origami, paper-cut and monotype is unique, and being arranged differently for each calendar. Well...I just want to make sure each work is one of the kind~

I love this work soooo much, since it integrates multiple techniques and funny ideas. On top of that, it took 12*7=84 name cards to make them...which I want to give thanks to my brother's old name card:P Hope my members will love them. And happy Chinese new year~~it's the year for the Golden Rabbit ^^
