Some photoshop fun. Nigel had fun watching his head grow and grow.
Using cheap photopaper, I arranged to have it printed so that I don't waste paper. Trimmed and ready to laminate.
While waiting for the laminating machine to heat, I sandwiched the photos into the films. Do this if you don't want to panic, if you're doing this on your own and in bulks. See the video and you'll see why you need everything prepared beforehand.
The best part, is watching the tags emerge perfectly laminated! Do wait for the red light to indicate that the machine is ready and is hot enough, if not, your laminates will appear bubbly.
This is my new toy, the tag puncher. Had these punched and tied together with the bigger tags.
Everyone received one! What's for next year? (headache! headache!)

Haha! So cool! Love your Nigel-with-a-big-head and your new toy ... I'm thinking of getting a tag 'maker' now ... hmmm. J's birthday coming up but I'm not going into anything of such a big scale :)
hello, i popped in from our ka fei dian. love your gift tags and what u did for your nigel (he's so cute, btw!).
anyway, just wondering, where did you buy your tag puncher from? would love one of those. so convenient!
Thanks for visiting! I got the puncher from a Scrapbooking shop at One Utama. I think you'll find it at any scrapbooking store in the malls. They're quite pricey and comes in many shapes and sizes and brands. Have fun! Do keep in touch!!
Hi, chanced upon your blog. Love all the things you done so far!! what a lucky boy, whose mother is so talented!!
BTW, do you mind share the tutorial on how you enlarged Nigel's head using photoshop please? I tried n tried, but just couldn't!! Did a search online, also to no avail. Hope you don't mind sharing. Greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Hi! Winnie,
It's hard to blog about a photoshop tutorial. It will be quite confusing to do a step by step without screen snapshots and in this case, I use a Mac and most of you will be using a PC. Somehow the interface will be different. But will think about it and find a way to tute about photoshop! (that I think will require a new blog! LOL!)
Thanks Winnie!
Hi Mel,
Yeh, understand what you mean. ha ha... thanks ya! In the mean time,I'll continue to try my luck with Photoshop.
thanks again!
Winnie
