One of my old project

Hello!

How were your weekend friends? Mine was too hectic... feeling bad that it's over.. :(
Anyways, today I just wanted to share one of my old projects when I was not blogging... I love this one a lot so it's still with me... Might be if I get its true recipient I will give it away... :)

It’s a 3 x 3 mini card set with 3 book marks...


Here are the cards,


 A closure look...


 I have used puffy stickers in 2 cards...

This one is hand drawn by me but its not my design. One fine day I was sitting idle in office and just randomly searching on the net and found this designed with the hearts hanging on the curtain rail. I really loved it. The design got imprinted in my mind and one day I drew it on the cardstock. Sorry I never noticed to whom this design originally belongs too as I never knew I will draw it one day. So if you know who is the owner please inform me so that I can give the due credit.
I drew it with a gel pen and colored it with pencil colors.


Here are the bookmarks from the set. I used pink cardstock, puffy stickers, and ribbons and did some doodling. The red checkered paper was an envelope of a card which my friend gave me about 10 years back!!! I just saved it coz I liked it a lot but I never knew I would be using it 10 years later... :)

Here is the wrapping and packing of the set.

I hope you guys liked it and if so then don't forget to comment. Your comments make my day...

Good night!

Handmade Flowers

Hi all!

I created few handmade flowers yesterday... Take a look... (big white and pink ones were made previously)


another view...

I used flower shaped die cuts I purchased on my shopping spree at itsy bitsy on my birthday... I embossed the petals with the back of a pen and used pillow as my embossing pad... ;) tucked 2 big and one small together and a glued a pearl on the top... Voila! my handmade flower is ready!

I had fun making these and tried different types too.. I made 8 of these in 1 hour... not bad huh...
How about this variation? These are my favourite...


I embossed all the petal towards inwards and glued 6 die cuts together...
I will be adding many such flowers too to my blog candy as the number of followers and comments has increased... so if you have not entered yet you still have time to do so... Here is the link... International bloggers are also invited!!! I can make these flowers in the colors as per winner's choice too... so hurry up!!!

I hope you like these... If anyone need details please feel free to contact.. I am just a comment away...

Lots of love,

ICRC7 - ONE BIG creature & ONE SMALL Creature

Please enter here for my giveaway.
Hello!

i just shared my winning moments here. Onto a card now.
Being the guest designer for the new challenge (ICRC7) @ ICR, I was assigned the job to create a card based on following theme
CREATURES BIG & SMALL + COMBO TWIST to ADD ONE OF EACH.... ONE BIG creature & ONE SMALL Creature!!!

and this is what I came up with... its a mid fold card... I liked this fold which I first saw at Donna's blog here. Moreover, I ran out of my brown cardstock so this fold was a cleaver selection.. hehehe :D


The image is a coloring image from the colorpages. I printed it on the cardstock and colored with water color pencils. Ir was so much fun painting Pooh...
Flowers were a RAK from my bloggy friend Jovita. Patterned paper is again a RAK from Asha. Cardstock and die cuts are purchased from Kavitha's craft studio.
Here is the sentiment inside, Celebrate!
