Christmas Card Making Activity 2



Day 3 – 13th December
It’s almost a week and I am pretty near to my target. I have completed about 6 cards in total. Today in school, I showed the cards to Deepshri Ma’am, she was happy to know and see that I have completed 6 cards and that they are beautiful. Only four cards were left, so Ma’am gave me some good ideas and told me to make some quilling cards and taught me how to make pop up cards and some more quilling skills. And then we made cut-outs of Christmas symbols like Christmas tree, socks, gifts, candies etc. making many cut-outs would then help us to decorate the cards and wouldn’t take much time to make them. It would be simple and beautiful. While I was learning to make pop-up cards, I learned new cutting skills too. It’s it fun when you explore one and learn more skills and get to know yourself and ones abilities. Learning these skills now, I hope I use them in the other cards while making them. Till next time then!


Day 4 – 18th December
I have completed my target yesterday and ready with my cards today with all the finishing done. I am happy that I had completed my target a day before. I was proud of myself that I have completed the task and could explore and aware myself and my abilities. It’s the best feeling when you’re exploring and knowing yourself more and your skills and abilities too.

Now that all of us have completed our target, what left is selling these cards! Our coordinator Ms.Vijayalaxmi Ma’am informed us that we were allotted a blank spacious room and we had to decorate it a bit to make it look attractive. We were done with the labeling of the cost of the cards and we arranged them according to their prices. Now what left is decorating the room, display board and main board which would be outside the room? Deepshri Ma’am gave some ideas on how to decorate the boards and we started working on them. Once we were done with all the painting work, we started pining up the articles and cut-outs of creativity, action and service on the board. We also decorated the boards which was to be kept outside the room, mentioning about the card exhibition. All of us worked together and helped out each other. We made a great team as we worked collaboratively and enjoyed doing it. Now just waiting for these cards to get sold. Till next time then!

Day 5 – 19th December
Finally the day had arrived, when these cards of ours were going to be sold. My friends Tanmay and Shafqat were responsible for the entire treasure trunk, or the money matters in other words, and everyone else were allotted one table each. It was really good to hear those appreciations from people. I was pretty happy with myself that I got to discovery many thing and skills and I did complete the task. It was really fun working with my classmates in this activity.
