Kavitha's little world

Hi Started crafting after a very long time. Got my mojo back when i wanted to make a card for my friends Baby. I thought of using this unity stamp from a long long time so got a chance to do it for this challenge at lulupu. Used black ,white and maroon colour. I embossed with darice folder each half in white and black cardstocks. The image is heat embossed with black embossing powder and the umbrella is heat embossed on a maroon paper and put using foam dots.  Made a flower with spellbinders rose creation dies and the sentiment is stamped with a versafine ink. I hope you like it and comments will surely encourage me to do more though sitting for long time is making my back ache. submitting to http://lulupu.blogspot.in/2014/09/challenge-39-black-white-and-pop-of.html Thanks for visiting Kavitha vadhri

Hi all Its been very long time , how are you all??  Wanted to share a news. I am expecting a second baby in december and this is the reason for the long gap. I have not been well in my first trimester so totally away from my quilling activities. My first son is in Kindergarten from last month and so picking him from school and doing household chores is presently my challenge. Hope i will be back in New year. Till then Happy Crafting to all of you. Bye Kavitha 

Hi all Made a quick card for my friend who wants to send her mother. AMMA  means mother in our language. I have used the MFT alphabet dies for the first time here.  Painted the letters with gold acrylic paint.  I made an embossed background on a pink cardstock. Added the black embossed sentiment on a label with the letters. Final touch with some quilled flower , felt butterfly and some pearls.  Made a 3D envelope to fit the card. I added an embossed paper to the front of the envelope and a label with gold embossed sentiment.   wishing simonsaysstamp a very Happy 5th Birthday and linking this card to http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-happy-birthday/ http://catchychallenges.blogspot.ch/2014/04/cscc-2.html  Inspired from swirls and quilling.

Hi all A quick post for a card made using the colors from colorthrowdown  . I store the sand colored cardstocks which i get as a base when buying my white cardstocks and finally used one.  Embossed the background. Roses made using the punch. I had this espresso colored pattern paper from mind's eye which i cut using my circle cutter and placed under the sentiment. The sentiment 'A Birthday' is again stamped with hero art shadow ink and the banner is placed using foam dots. Leaves again is diecut and placed using foam dots. Finally a little sequin in between the flowers.  Happy that i made one card using the colors which i always find difficult in  getting the right colors. submitting to  http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.ch/2014/03/color-throwdown-285.html Hope you like it and thanks for visiting.

I tried few techniques here, heat embossing on the wooden frame.  I made roses with spellbinders rose creations die.I used pink cardstock and sponged it with pink ink at the centre ,petals and edges with versamark. Corner is heat embossed with gold embossing powder. The name is written using the pearl maker and colored with gold metallic marker. There is an embossing effect on the name.  I embossed the word Adorable on a cardstock and used distress inks on it.

Hi all, Back after a long gap. Returned from my hometown a week back. Made a card to participate in few challenges.    I first stamped the sentiment on a white card stock( 1st layer) and pasted on red base card stock. The second layer is also a white card stock on which i drew the heart shape and was torn . Applied the dye ink on the edges of the torn paper and embossed it with darice paisley embossing folder. Pasted it so that the sentiment comes under the heart shape.  Made roses and leaves from Spellbinders rose creations die. Hopefully will make better flowers next time.   Used punches for small flowers. Pasted little heart rhinestones on the sentiment. Placed the Pearl as center of one flower and arranged pollens. Participating in BGC  with this card . My card consists of  3 letters L - Layers, Leaves ,Love theme P - Pearl, Pollens , Punches C - Cardstock for layers , Cheery Lynn die(olive branch) Submitting to lulupu Birthday and B...
