Altered frame!!!!

Morning everybody, After a hot day, I had a proud moment last night when my DS Siddarth won the Academic Achievement Award at the school award night.  This is second consecutive year that he won the award. So I am a proud mother 🙂 He also got a distinction in his guitar practical exams and 98% in his music theory. He also won a medal for his school dancing 🙂 So, this year has been a good year for him. I can’t be happier 🙂

I wanted to share a altered frame I made for the school for giving me the library to conduct craft class.

Here is the picture of the frame for you 🙂

 

 Here is the close up.

As you can see I love PTI’s Larger than life stamp set and the coordinating die. Just gorgeous and so easy to work with. I hope the principal will like it 🙂

Not very long before I leave for my holiday. I have nearly packed and ready. I have so much luggage that I am not taking any of my craft stuff 😦  I still have to weigh the luggages and I constantly put in and take away things from it. I will do that until I reach the check in counter I think!!!!!  Tell me, I am not the only one doing that lol!!!

Today is a nice day. Not very hot but gorgeous 31 degree celscius and I am going shopping to buy last minute gifts 🙂 Off now. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day 🙂

Luv!

Waltizingmouse challenge #17

Morning everybody,

Its Monday here for me and the day is hot, windy and sunny. The time is 9.45 AM now and the temperature is already 35 degree celscius! Tops redicted today to be 42 degree celscius!!!! I went out to take some photos of my card and gosh!!! it so bright that I could not open my eyes. I had to wear my sunglasses to take the photos. So the photo are not as good as it should be!

Anyway, here is the link to Waltzingmouse sketch challenge blog to see this week’s sketch and if you want to play the challenge too 🙂

Here is my take on the sketch.

The bell is an image printed from the computer and die cut using Spellbinder label die and stamped with its compatible WMS stamp using SU’s Elegant eggplant ink. The sentiment  and DSP are from PTI. Cardstock, brad and lace ribbon from SU. This card came together in 10 minutes last night. What a surprise!!!

Thanks for the lovely sketch. And have a lovely day. I am turning the A/C on now as my eyes are burning. I wish it rains and bring the temperature down but its not predicted on the weather forecast 😦  I somehow have to get through this day well hydrated and in the evening there is a carol singing and awards nights at school on the school ground 😦 Hoping the temperature cools down by then!!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Luv!

Stamp a stack……

I am a big fan of stamp set with leaves and flowers. PTI recently released a set called Larger than Life with coordinatng die for the same. I love love that set. And I so wanted to use that set but since I got my parcel very late, I had lost mojo and was bummed looking at them!!!! So to bring back my mojo, I went through the countdown post on Nicole Heady’s blog. Here is the link to the countdown post. I decided to CASE her Bouquet and Banner card trio cards.

 

Here is my version!

I stamped a set of four cards instead of three. I also used SU’s Square Lattice embossing folder on the background instead of PTI’s impression plate. Also I made my own double ended banner for the sentiment. Aren’t they gorgeous? I love this set and the die. Its a must have set I should say.

Anyway, my mojo is back and I have lots of ideas going on my head as I write this post. Hope I make use of this weekend and get some DT projects as well as some gifts done 🙂

 

Thanks for stopping by! And have a nice day 🙂

Luv!

Sasya Sketches # 40

Its time again for another sketch at Sasya’s sketches. Here is sketch no #40

Love the black, cream and red combo a lot. The papers are from Stampin’ Up!, the sentiment from PTI, the tag stamp is from WMS and cardstock from Stampin’ Up!

If you are interested in participating, here is the link to the challenge.

There are many DT projects to inspire you and a fantastic prize too.

All the best!

Circular Christmas card!

Morning everybody,

I have a christmas card to share but its not the regular rectangular card. 

I had a go at Waltzingmouse sketch for the first time to make this card.

I wanted to use soft colors. Not my kind of color combo but I love it. Maybe I should use more of these colors. Here is the link to WMS sketch challenge blog, if you like to participate in their sketch challenge 🙂

This is my first time with WMS sketch challenge and I love their sketches. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Luv!

Another set of cards and tags

Here is another set of Christmas cards and coordinating tags I made. This time I used Case Study Challenge #17 muse card by Nina B to make mine. Here are my cards.

Now here are the coordinating tags for the cards

 Thanks for the muse. I have been wanting to do Case Study Challenge ever since it started but just could not get the time. This time, I love the vintage Christmas muse card so much that I wanted to make it imediately 🙂

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week 🙂
