Falling in Love!!!

They say that Marriage is all about falling in love with the same person again and again....that was in my mind when i made this card. As all of my other cards, this one too is a simple one. What I tried for the first time was a tri-fold for this card. Hope you like it.

Its Raining Love!!

Soon, its gonna be that time of the year when it'll start showering love......yup, Valentine's Day is around the corner. And in the mood for some love, I too have made a few cards. In this post I'm showcasing one of those cards. I chose to deviate from the standard colours of love that you would see in cards for Valentine's Day and went for a totally different colour combination. Every embellishment that you see in the card below is hand made and hand cut.

Christmas is coming!!

Christmas and the New Year are around the corner and I thought of making some Christmas and New Year cards. Christmas cards can be really cheery and they almost always exude this feeling of joy and a sense of excitement! Its like a prelude to the arrival of the New Year with new beginnings and new hopes! 

Here is the card that I made, hopefully the first of many more to come!! :-)  

Simple n Beautiful!

I am often in a hurry to see what my card will shape up like when i start working on it. And it is such a pleasure to see the results of your effort.  I especially like these cards that i made because they are so simple. Just a few additions here n there totally change the appeal of a card. In the first card here, I love the bit of sentiment tied up with a piece of rope. Without that piece, the card would've looked pretty ordinary, but as soon as I added that bit it completely changed the look of the card. Again, with the last card, I just love the contrast of brown and pink; and the 3 little buttons add just the right amount of cuteness to the card. I believe there is nothing better than expressing your feelings  through handmade cards. I'm loving it!! :)

Sentiments...yes and no!

Sentiments on cards are great!! Sometimes just a few words suffice and yet other times words just pour out of you and you want to fill the card with them. I often look for cards with minimum sentiments so I can fill in the card with my own words and sentiments. Here you'll find 3 cards with basic sentiments like "thank you", "hi" etc. The last 3 cards, however, have no sentiments on them. You can fill them in with whatever you like! :-)  

Quilled Cards

Here are some quilled cards that i made a while ago. In fact these are some of the first cards that i tried my hand at. I absolutely love the art of quilling and admire those who have excelled in this art form. Its just amazing how strips of paper can turn into such beautiful things. Please do take a look at my effort and let me know what you think. :-)
