First stitched card

Image
Hi all Another quick post today with my first ever stitched card inspired from dynamic deepthi. She makes card so effortlessly and very quickly. I was inspired from the below card and hopefully CASed properly.  I took the negative paper of the punched flower and traced on the purple cardstock and started stitching and i found it very nice to see the result. What i learnt is first punch the holes with a cork under the paper with a small needle and then start stitching. I put some rhinestones all over.  I don't want to spoil the stitched card with my stamping directly on it so put the sentiment separately. I put the acetate all over the stitched pattern and made the frame from a pattern paper. The base of the card is white and so you can find white all around the frame but due to wind i couldn't capture the pic properly.  I have only white thread and so proceeded with it.  I will definitely try some more cards with stitching.  submitting to  http://

Trash to Treasure

Image
Hi all I altered a  choclate box using washi tape and decorated with some handmade flowers. I thought i will put an inspirational quote on each side of the box and here is the result. I am happy that i made something useful to me and can use it as a storage.  These are the quotes i really liked so much and every time i read i feel inspired.  I first stuck the tissue paper to the box and pasted white paper and covered the edges with purple washi tape.  Bird at the bottom is a sticker. Hope you like it. thanks for visiting. submitting to http://colorconceptionschallenges.blogspot.in/2013/06/challenge-2-trash-to-treasure-using.html http://lessology.blogspot.sg/2013/07/lessology-challenge-27-packaging-central.html http://charismacardz.blogspot.in/2013/07/challenge-29-make-your-own.html http://creativeinspirationspaint.blogspot.ch/2013/07/inspired-by-anything-goes.html http://sentimentalsundays.blogspot.ch/2013/07/challenge-165-anything-with-wings.h

Quilled Birthday card 3

Image
Hi all I saw this challenge by  Savannah O'Gwynn    at Do more with less  and wanted to try the masking of different sentiments to make your own sentiment. I am very poor at stamping and had to try 3 times to get this simple sentiment atlast. I used Best wishes which actually is in two lines and stamped it one line by masking. On is the one i got from masking the Get well soon stamp  and last i masked It's on It's your birthday stamp. I never thought that i would try something in stamping apart from normal sentiments which iam still scared to stamp directly on card.  I added few roses which are the new ones i tried. As usual a quilled flower is added.  I distressed the circle with mustard seed ink.

Quilled Birthday Card 2

Image
Hi  Made a card following the sketch from sketchbook saturday,   Again a simple card with some quilled flowers.  Added little heart rhinestones. I don't know but my colour combinations are same for all my cards these days and I am trying  to change it and use proper colours and papers. Hope to be back with another card soon. Not in a mood to craft these days due to some personal problems but atleast during crafting my mind is diverting, but not able to do feel good cards . Thanks so much for your encouraging comments always friends.   http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/mondaychallenge/challenge-green/ Thanks Kavitha vadhri

Sketchbook saturday

Image
Hi all Made a card with the sketch from sketch book saturday challenge . I embossed the cardstock with corner hearts and done some quilling according to the sketch. Punched the bottom portion with martha stewart doily punch and used decorative lace ribbon tape.  I stamped the sentiment and distressed the edges with worn lipstick and placed on purple cardstock. I don't think its visible as i took the pic during night. The quilled flowers are pink in colour.  submitting to http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.in/2013/07/challenge-214-4th-of-july-here-comes.html http://beyondgrey.blogspot.in/2013/06/bgc34-photo-inspiration-anything-goes.html  (inspired from the colours) Thanks for visiting Kavitha vadhri
