Black and White Card

Hi friends!

I am back after a long time. Had to stay away from computer as per doctors orders. Today, I am just testing how far I can sit and type. 

I am busy with my daily routine and my students. I can only manage that much between my frequent visits to the doctor. I also am unable to do anything much as I cannot sit for long nor can do anything intricate like embroidery or painting or writing for long. But then I am recovering and it will take a lot of time. I have to face this winter season. Thank God! our winters are milder here with lots of sun shine. But still I am affected by the cold climate.

Hope you have had a very joyous Diwali. We had fun celebrating along with our family and friends. 

Here is one of my cards which I made sometime back.

Celebrate card
This was an easy card to make. I just punched the border on white card stock and layered it along with black card stock onto the base. Then added the tape and sentiment. 

I just wanted to restrict the colour scheme to black and white. Then just added a touch of pink in the the sentiment.


Materials Used:

  • A4 size ivory card stock
  • Black coloured handmade card stock
  • Black tape with white polka dots
  • Puffy sticker "Celebrate"
  • Border Punch
  • Glue

Hope you like it. 

That is all for now. I can only sit for this long. Hope I can post some more in my next posts. Actually I have so many half finished cards which need just a little bit of finishing touches. But I somehow am not able to to that. Especially when it comes to stamping, I keep on putting it off. It is messy all right? Specially searching for the right stamp, matching ink and then cleaning after it.

Bye for now. All those preparing for the Christmas and New Year have lots of fun and enjoy.

Birthday Card -For Kids


Hi Guys! Hope you are doing well.  

It is a bit cloudy and cool here today. I am back after a long time. After completion of festivities in the month of Sravana and also bidding audieu to our Ganesha, I am a bit free.

But with SA-I of my students just at the end of the month, I am busy with them. With lots of festivals and holidays in between their studies have suffered a lot. None of the schools have completed their portion for the exam. They too are in holiday mood. It is so difficult to get their attention back on studies. 

I am feeling mighty tired after the festivities. Moreover, every alternate day, I have to spend more than half a day for my therapy. At the end of the day, though I am getting better little by little, I feel so exhausted. 

In between all these we are either having heavy rains or summer like temperatures. This not only drains our energies, but throws our routines into chaos. Amidst all this, I am preparing notes for my students and also spending a little time on my crafts.

But I am unable to post much. There are lots I want to share with you. 

Ok enough of my ranting. Time to share something with you.

Here it is:




One more birthday card for kids. I used some of those stickers lying with me for a long time. I need to clear them off to make way for other crafty stuff. My storage space is already overflowing. 

I folded the card stock into half and first glued the blue coloured tape. Then added the stickers. Some of them are dimensional. 

Then, I punched out a circle each from dark blue and light blue card stock. I cut dark blue circle into half.

I stamped the sentiment using black ink and then glued the circles as shown above.

Simple and easy to make ready within ten minutes.

I have many other cards to post. But can't sit for long or type for long. But will try to post more often if possible.


Materials Used:

Baby pink coloured textured card stock A4 size
Self adhesive Stickers
Blue coloured Tape
Circle punch
Scraps of dark and light blue card stock
Sentiment Stamp
Black Ink
Glue
