Card Making

Card Making 

In sewing class we had to make four cards we could make them for anyone and make them for what ever reason you want. My reasoning's on the cards were happy birthday, thank you, just because and hi.
We had to make the cards out of the paper we made the paper I made was the colour blue. My theme on my cards had a lot of patterns on the front.

I made two bigger cards and two smaller cards.

How was paper made

Paper Making


For sustainability in my sewing class we are learning how to make paper we are learning to recycle paper  to make a whole new piece of paper.

Step one: We got some paper we ripped the paper up into little pieces. We had a bucket next to us and put the little pieces of paper into that bucket we used newspaper and some white normal paper

step two: we put all the paper into a bucket of warm water and let it sit there for a couple days until the paper was ready to come out.

here's a link to a video of how to make paper.
