Thank You Card

Hello There! Hope you are doing great!

Here it is still raining on and off. But today we have some sunshine. That's a great blessing. But it will soon rain again. 

I don't mind rains. In fact without monsoons we will not have water for drinking or for our agriculture. It is great for my garden too. But continuous heavy downpour is really difficult to manage.

Well here is another card. Again a thank you card. I have used three colours, white as base and purple and orange combo for the touch of colour. One of the ways to reduce my scrap stash.

I have lots of scraps of various sizes, colours and textures lying around. I have stuffed them into polythene bags. There is a lot of dust here in India and we have to keep everything in covered boxes or bags. 

In India we don't get much storage or organising items for craft materials. Even if we get the cost is too high. So we  are forced to manage with whatever is available.

Thank You Card

This card has plain white insert and a plain white envelope.

Hope you like this one.

Thanks a lot for spreading love and joy by visiting my blog and commenting. It means a lot to me. In these difficult times mostly locked down (self imposed) in our homes and fearing to hear about loss of your kith and kin, it is quite depressive and sad. It has been like that for the past one and half year. The future too seems uncertain. But we can only pray and leave everything to HIM.

Watch out for more...

Red And White Card

Hello Friends!

Its been raining here for the past few days. Sometimes it is quite a heavy rain. Sometimes it is a drizzle. On the whole it is highly overcast and damp for the past one week or so. Because of heavy rains and winds, there are frequent power outages. With high levels of humidity it is really unbearable when there is no power.

Most of our daily schedule is disrupted because of power cuts. So it is irritating sometimes.

Well here is a birthday card with minimum colours. I have used white and red combination as background and a little bit of black in sentiment and embellishment. 

Red and White Card

I have folded the Ivory card stock into half and glued the die cuts. I then added the sentiment and butterfly sticker.

Sometimes I hate to touch the stamping materials. It is so messy. And then the stickers I bought in a sale along with other crafts materials were overflowing my storage bins. So I had to use them.

This card has plain white insert and a plain white envelope.

I think the colours are too bold. But I thought white and red is a good combination. Can red coloured be paired with any other colour? Any suggestions please. I have so much of red card stock with me 


Materilas Used:

  • White Ivory Card Stock A4 size
  • Red Card Stock
  • Tattered Lace Decorative Rectangles Dies
  • Glue
  • Happy Birthday Sticker
  • Butterfly Sticker

Warm Wishes

Hi there. Today I am posting another card which is simple and easy to make. 

As base I have used A4 size white Ivory stock card folded in half. I used strips of baby pink card and purple colour polka dots printed paper to add some colour. I love polka dots. Do you?

The scalloped ovals were die cut from pink and white coloured card stock to match the design. I stamped the sentiment on the white oval with black ink and added a small 3D sticker. 

I have used double sided foam tape to give a little dimension to the oval die cuts.

For the insert, I have punched border on three sides of pink paper using border punch. This card has plain white envelope.
