CAS card

Hey everyone,
             I hope you are having a beautiful day.Today I had been playing around with my Tim Holtz tattered floral dies and distress inks and ended up making a simple yet beautiful card.I gave away this card to a little girl who'll gift it to her drawing teacher as the teacher is going away.

So here are a couple of pics which I clicked before giving it away.

I began with simple white cardstock cut it out using the tim Holtz dies,assembled the flower, shaped it a bit and inked the edges blue.Then I placed a blue button in the centre and this completed my flower.Then I took a blue piece of cardstock matted it with a pink printed paper and placed my flower bang in the center and Voila! my card is done.

I hope you liked my simple card.Please drop by your comments on ways I can improve my inking techniques.I'd appreciate that.And thanks for dropping by.Have an amazingly beautiful day.


Until next time,
Happy crafting

Ideas for handmade rakhi making competitions in schools

Hello everyone,
                 Posting today a rakhi that a little girl made this year for her rakhi making competiotion in school.It was easy and the end result was beautiful.I only taught her how to make it and she assembled everything from scratch on her own,in the school,using the paper strips,beads and other materials.

 

It turned out lovely and she was delighted to use it on rakshabandhan.Handmade things are the best and they add to the bonding between individuals.

Thanks for dropping by.We love feedbacks.Do drop a comment on some ideas and suggestions.Have a great day everyone.

Birthday invitation cards for boys - Guitar shaped cards

Hey everyone,

Today I'm posting some pics of an invite that I made for a cool dude's birthday.Designing cards for guys is always challenging, but then a lot of fun too, as you have to use a lot of imagination. I always make birthday party invitations for little kids,instead of buying them from store and delight ( I hope so,  :p) the recipients.

So here are some of the pics.

,

These are guitar shaped boxes,closed with a ribbon and the invite is written inside the box.

The above picture shows one of the guitar box when opened.I have stamped the invite on the inside of the box - the blue, slightly blurred area.

And here is a close up pic.I embossed the top of the guitars using an embossing folder and embellished it using some li'l rhinestones and glitter pens.The ribbon helps in keeping the box closed.

So that's it.Happy with my little creations and they are flying away soon to some little and tween guests.

What do you think of them?Do leave me a comment.Hope you enjoyed and thanks for dropping by.Any feedback or suggestions or ideas for improvement are welcome.And don't forget to follow us on Facebook,Pinterest,Google+ to stay connected and get latest updates.......:)

Until next time,
Happy crafting
