珍貴的留念；Precious souvenir

小芥：記得阿丹的生日趴嗎？那天阿丹收到好多禮物(見此)，現在我暫時不用加班了，想說有點空閒，就想說開始慢慢打開阿丹的生日禮物。這個是夫人贈送(下圖照片右下角那位美女)的貓腳印紀念框。讓我非常喜歡，我一收到就好想開始動手做，終於，有空了!!!! 謝謝夫人啊~!!!
Michico : Remember Adan's birthday party(see here)? That day, Adan recieved so many gifts, one of the gifts is PAW PRINTS Frame, I don't have to over work Temporary, so I got sometime to open them. Will this gift was sent by Peggy -very famous cat-photographer in Taiwan(the right lady as below). I opened this gift last week and started to make the paw print.

小芥：腳印製作分成兩種黏土，一個是藍色、一個是白色，藍色的是把腳印印進去，這種手工藝的東西，通常都是由大姊或者是妹妹去完成，因為她們兩位都是非常嚴謹的處女座A型，只要沒有做好就會重做，對於品質要求嚴苛的我，兩位姊妹的手藝最能夠符合我的期待了(我欠扁)。大姊二話不說就幫我(幫她兒子做ㄇㄟ)做了。我就樂得在一旁拍照紀錄。我想我的照片已經很清楚整個流程了，就不文字贅述，大姊重新捏很多遍，我都滿意了她還不滿意，讓我越來越滿意XD。
Michico : There are 2 kinds of clay, one is blue, another is white. The blue clay is for denting paw print, means you have to use the toes as stamp to make it. Well this kinds of hand-made work, I leave to Pamilla or Toshie, because they are both Virgo and A blood-type. The quality will be perfect. Pamilla certainly makes for Adan and I could photo this as record.

小芥：接著，就是要求嚴格媽媽的小孩登場，腳印製作有個好處，就是從頭到尾只要「壓一次」另外一個凸出的只要把黏土蓋上做好的凹陷黏土就可以了。可是，阿丹真的只要壓一次黏土嘛？
Michico : Next, It's Adan's turn. This paw print frame only need Adan's paw for "1 time". Because another raised print only need to cover the white clay into the dry blue clay could be finished. So Adan only needs to stamp his paw this time. But he has a Virgo mom, so....

小芥：沒有喔，處女座A型的媽媽，加上眼睛容不下一粒砂的大姨姨，阿丹這個狠狠的壓在黏土上製造自己腳印的動作，可是壓了十幾二十次咧。
阿丹：偶覺得我的手快要瘀青了拉....抓得好用力啊~~~~~
Michico : Yes, Adan stamped his paw into the blue clay about doing it 10 times, because we need to make it to the best.
Adan : I think my paws are going to have some bruise, don't you think?

小芥：於是，含有一個爪印的腳印印好了，大姊非常仔細的把框做出來旁邊的都去掉，雖然包裝上面表示最大框的圈圈要擺照片，但是因為黏土很大，所以大姊認為把這個凹角印放在最大框裡面。摁...也好，反正我照片很多。
Michico : So, the first denting one is finished, Pamilla is very careful remove the excrescence. And make it perfect.

小芥：多麼優秀的手工藝啊，接下來就等幾天等到黏土乾燥了~~
Michico : What a wonderful piece~! Now all we have to do is waiting.
小芥：等待的這幾天就是放在一個卡紙上面等乾燥，另外我要推崇我最喜歡的部分，就是這個黏土保存期限可以到2070年，就是可以保存到我90歲。讚拉，可以保存到我掛點的時候耶...
Michico : When we are waiting, here is the best part I like to introduce to you, this clay could be keep until 2070 year. I can keep this print until I am 90 years old!!!! Wowww...that is wonderful, I can keep it for all my life time!!!
小芥：隔了幾天了，要做凸出來的腳印。
Michico : Ok, now after few days already, we will make the raised paw print.
小芥：因為藍色凹下去的黏土已經乾了，就把軟軟的白黏土捏好放進去凹印模然後倒出來就好了。非常簡單就完成了。多完美啊。大姊的手藝真的非常的嚴格我太欣賞了，這個看似簡單容易，但是我大姊還是不滿意做了兩三次耶。精良品質。
Michico : The denting paw print has been dried, so Pamilla use the soft white clay make the circle shape and put it into the dry clay to make the raised print. Pamilla is very strict, she does this for more than 10 times, to make this print perfect!
小芥：阿丹的腳印耶~~~~
Michico : Adan's prints!!!!!
小芥：樂高，白色還有一大堆，換你壓!!
樂高：媽媽，你別開玩笑，我最討厭有人隨便亂碰我了。
Michico : Lego, your turn!!! There are more white clay here!
Lego : Are you kidding me Mom? I hate someone touching my paws!!
小芥：因為白色還剩下太多所以就把樂高也壓一個腳印，結果這個腳印也壓了很多遍，倒不是不會壓，而是樂高手掌一碰到黏土，就開始亂咬我和大姊，搞到最後幾乎沒有成功，也是壓到不行。
Michico : Because there are many white clay left, so I grab Lego coming here to make the print, this print we stamp it for many MANY times, because Lego keeps biting me and Pamilla since his paws touched the white clay. He is very crazy....lol
小芥：於是，阿丹丹的腳印是深腳印，樂高壓得很用力了，但是是淺腳印。
Michico : So, here is Adan-dan's deep big paw print. And Lego stamp very hard, but his print is light, maybe it's because he is still a kid.
小芥：再過幾天，白色也已經乾了，就在今天表框起來。阿丹丹珍貴的腳印相框，就完成了~!!!!
Michico : After few days, the white clay also dry. And I framed it today. Adan-dan's precious paw frame is done!
小芥：我很愛白色這個凸出的，因為有印到阿丹當時留在藍色黏土裡的爪印，這個白色凸出看起來好真實。讚!!!! 再次感謝夫人，這個禮物好棒!!! 也謝謝大姊，你的手藝真棒!!!
Michico : My favortie one is this white one, because it record the claws part in the blue clay, makes it just so real~!!! It's just perfect~!!! Thanks to Peggy - the famous cat photographer again, this is really a wonderful gift!! Thanks to Pamilla as well~!
