Hi all


juz to share 250gsm paper, u can get those adhesive plastic bags from party supplies shop to wrap the cards instead of laminating. The bags are abt 6 cents each. I got mine from SKP.

Topics for flashcards, one can buy those 1000 words picture dictionary from Times for reference. They should have bulk of the topics. For more topics, u can refer to this site
