recycled paper card!


My Mom send me lots of wedding invitations. They come with nice thick papers, sometime with beautiful print on it and nice handmade paper. Here is something I made yesterday for my friend's birthday! The embellishments and that crochet ribbon were brought from Ahmedabad.

Happy Valentine's Day!


All my lovely ladies out there....I wish you a very happy valentine's day!
I was having so many ideas and started working on one, but then the day had arrived and i thought i don't have enough time to finish it. Then I ended up making this one. It was made in all jiffy. Infact I was still making this one when he returned home from office! but, love the way it has turned out....and he loved it!!!:)

Everything is handcut...the flowers are the ones my sis got me and that tree branch paper was cut from a t-shirt tag!


and inside i made this cute message envelope!

kidos and ma


Since my little one N's birth, I can see he is faster in everything! Younger ones always have advantage to learn things fast as they continuously watch the older sibling doing things. At age of 10 months he knows to click the mouse, he imitates everyone and knows which shelf have packets of biscuits in nearby store! I am really surprised and worried at the same time that will I be able to cope up with him? Kids these days are smarter than what we were at their age. I feel my 5 year old already knows half of the things i know...and in couple of years I won't have anything to teach him:(
SO, I need to buck up...I have started reading newspaper thoroughly(seriously I am concerned!!) and reading the history books once again to brush up! I hope this will act as add-on till they think...mamma u don't know anything!!!:)

I want to share a photo of my sweethearts...

And a card I made for my aunt who was alone with dehydration and was hospitalized for couple of days...I really wanted to boost her up:)


I used blow pens and the stamped to make background! It is my attemp to http://yyam.blogspot.com/2011/01/get-more-from-your-patterned-paper-with.html

Cheers!

Being a mother...


Motherhood is a challenging profession which immediately comes after baby's birth. You don't need to have any degree or certificate for it, it just comes from within you. It requires lots of patience and hard work and needless to say lots of emotions are attached to that. I feel a girl starts appreciating her mother after she becomes one. Especially me, I always remember her when there is so much to be done for kids, home and family and the inside me always wants to pull out my own "Me Time". and that makes me wonder how much she has sacrificed her "Me Time". But, she never regrets. In fact she is happy that her kids have not wasted her sacrifice! Well, that's a Motherhood...


Can you believe, this is my first card to my mom!:O Somehow it never happened. So, this year I had decided to send her one. and here it goes.


Friend of mine wanted to learn quilling from me to make Diwali card. I love the embossed paper which was a wedding card.


I hope everybody is busy in Diwali preparation.
Have a Happy Diwali and a Prosperous new year to all my friends!

Cheers.

Japanese card!

It's been so long since I've made a card! Gosh....I am just too busy with kids! I mean I am not that busy, but not free enough to create something. I don't like having break when there is a flow of creativity running in my mind. but, can't help it...I have to adjust with breaks otherwise I will be out of the blog society!:)

For long I wanted to use this handmade paper I got it from Pondicherry last year. but never thought it will be used to give result like this!:)
