1st EXHIBITION ON CAMPUS

It was a wonderful experience. The response was very good. I sold almost everything I had displayed. Came back with a few orders too.

Planning to do this again pretty soon.

VIBRANT RED

It been an unfulfilled desire to use a nice puffy bow in my card. Finally did it. Love the way it makes the card look.

This is the view from my hostel room. Getting back to card making brings back a lot of happiness.

Thanks for looking.

BLISSFUL BUTTERFLY

The flowers on the cardstock are from a stencil. This butterfly is a digital stamp. Stamped with a carved wooden stamp on the butterfly.

Sponged the edges of the cardstock with red ink for the final effect.

Thanks for looking.

BROCADE LOOK

Stamped in copper acrylic paint and sponged around the card.

A REFRESHING BREAK

Got a chance to make a card after a very long time. Was very refreshing.

I used wooden blocks and acrylic paint for stamping.I love the richness of copper.

Thanks for looking.

Have a nice day.

ETHNIC DESIGN

The design is done by using a stencil and metallic acrylic paints from fevicryl. Added some beads and used a handmade paper panel.

Stenciling can be tedious. Im sure you will agree.

Thanks for looking.

BRIGHT BLOOMS

After a long long time I created a card. It feels good to be back . Ive made something after 3 months. The first term of MBA is really hectic. We are loaded with assignments and have absolutely no time to do any other thing. I hope to get more time soon.

I stamped acrylic paint and adhered the golden flowers.

Thanks for looking.

BUTTON BLAZE

A quick and simple card. Love using buttons.

Thanks for looking.

SIXER MIXER

I used a circle punch, some patterned paper, a sentiment stamp and wooden butterfly buttons for this card. Clean and Simple.

Thanks for looking.

PHOTO FRAME ON CANVAS BOARD

I used a canvas board as the base.Used acrylic paint to give the background and for stamping. Sponge is the best applicator for larger surface and the finishing is pretty good.
I matched the photo frame with the ribbons and the sentiment and adhered the punched flowers and leaves.

You can view the tutorial HERE.

Thanks for looking.

FLORAL BORDER

This was a customised order. The roses are quilled and the leaves and other flowers are punched.

A little sponging also creates very natural look. The punched flowers and leaves are sponged at the edges.And they gave an entirely different look after being given the shading effect.

Thanks for looking.

RUFFLED RIBBON

The yellow panel was stamped, distressed and sponged. The ribbon was done by pulling the thread after the running stitch was complete. Adhered it with Fevicol MR. I had to use buttons in this card. Used it for the centre of the flowers.

Thanks for looking.

SOMEBUNNY WISHES YOU..

I did some light colouring with water colour pencils from STAEDLER. Tried a different layering type this time. What I like the most about this card is the sentiment.

This flower is a very simple one. You can find the flower tutorial here.

QUILLED PEACOCKS

Quilling is going a long way on my craft table. I tried the peacocks with a little variation in the colours. This card came from the inspiration of Inna's Quilled Peacock.

I did my bit of changes. I used three colours of strips(1/2 strip of each colour for each feather) and stuck them together and quilled it.

The eye is a tight roll of white and black (1/4th strip each colour)stuck together and inserted in the head piece later while sticking on the main card.

It is time consuming but worth trying. I would recommend all the quillers out there to give it a try.
Hope that helped!

Thanks for looking.

QUILLED PEACOCK FEATHER

It looks difficult but actually isn't. Took some time to make it but it was worth all the effort. A close-up.

SWEETHEARTS

Just a variation in the 3 squares card. This one was a quickie.Stickers can make life easy!

Thanks for looking.

QUILLED FLORALS

Lets start with the tutorial

Cut 3 pieces of strip depending on the card size and the desired look. Turn the ends of the strips with your fingers.

Use 1 full strip for the larger flower's bud and half a strip for the smaller one. Glue it into a loose coil and press it from two points to form the shape. Adhere it to the tip of each stem.

1 strip for the larger petals and half a strip for the smaller one. Form the leaf shape and adhere it under the blue bud.Adhere the leaves. 1 strip for a leaf. Your card is ready!

Hope that helped.
