BLACK N CREAM

Okay,i am now quiet comfortable cards without images,lolz:)I love these type of cards,although its quiet challenging.This one is similar to my previous card,this combination(black n cream)has been in my mind fora while.In fact its my most favorite combo in my dresses,isn't it a relief from regular black n white cards?The scallops are with MFT dies,if you notice my cards these days you will realize that i am concentrating more on perfect measurement and cutting.It does give more professional look to the card for sure,even 1 or 2 mm can make a difference.

The back ground polka dots are stamped,yeah its not perfect bcoz the card has some texture and its difficult to stamp on it.this is one of my rare card without pattern papers:)Nothing more to say,but i love the end result:)What do you think?






Supplies:
Stamps - ippty
Tools -MFT scallop die
Embellishments-organza ribbon,jute twine,mulberry roses,rhinestones.


Challenges entered:
The shabby tea room-Polka dots
Crafty Ann's - scallops and or fancy borders
ICR challenge 9-Celebration+no digi or stamped images

FRIENDSHIP CARD

Hi, friends,
i am super busy these days(don't ask me why:))) n couldn't spend much time in blogging.Now i am back,n want to share quiet a few things with you all.Firstly the power cut problem here in chennai is totally rectified and i am all the more active now.More active means,started with more things and struggling to complete all,lolz.
second,i want to share a link of a super blog i found recently.It belongs to a 9-year old boy,yes a boy who is 9 years old.Its very rare to see boys interested in crafts,..and oh my he is super talented.I have seen children's good at craft and making some nice things with the help of a teacher or parent,but he does all by himself and guess what,.his works are professional.After seeing his blog,i was like what!!!what am i doing all these days,lolz:).Unfortunately the blog is in different language and couldn't translate it.But there is step by step pics which explains it well.Ok enough blabbering,hold your breath and take a look at his BLOG,and i am sure you will agree with me.



Third is my card i did yesterday.Of-late i am trying with different things in my cards,i don't like monotonous works.So i change my style often.I am thinking of to minimize the layers n embellies in my card,especially when i use pretty papers like these.It feels bad when it get covered,so not too much of layering nor CAS,this is another style which i like now.Do you?




Love,love,love this cutie pie:)))
