Baby panda origami

 

Here’s how I spend my time while I’m waiting for NaHaiWriMo to begin: I’m making origami cards. The Baby Panda is my favorite model. The head comes from one origami book and the body comes from another.  It’s a Mix and Match origami panda.

Origami panda made with two squares of black and white paper (one for the head and one for the body).

(I love making origami, it relaxes me.)

I discovered Anne’s beautiful haiku cards at the Vancouver Public Library bookstore. As soon as I entered the store, her cards with attractive colors, simple design and three lines of text immediately caught my eye: haiku cards!

These are some of the best haiku I’ve read in a long time. Disarmingly simple and effective.
