Car themed Invite-Pop up Slider card

Hello sweet friends

Here is an old project to share. I made this nearly an year back for my sister's son 2nd bday. He is going to be 3 soon. It is a pop up card. All the elements are hand cut. 




The black and white checks are stamped repeatedly to give this look. Just loved the matching ribbon. My cousin got me this and i had been hoarding it for a long time.

The little puffs of smoke are also handcut. All in all its an interactive CAS card ;) I soo wanted to add the traffic lights on the left upper corner.But due to time constraint it cudnt be done :(


The pop up


I also made a name banner in the car shape. The name reads "Hridhay". Further for his bday i made a car shaped wish book which i had already blogged, here is the link to it. This wish book is one of my all time fave.

Baby Boy Gift Envelop

Hello people

Here is a quick post from me today. I made this Money Envelop for a friend's baby. It was put together pretty quickly but i loved the effect it had. Usually we gift money when we dont know what wud be the right gift for the recipient. But gifting money in a personalised manner does add interest.





The sentiment is stamped and fussy cut and the stars are paper pierced from a pp. I simply love banners. U can say i am a banner addict. To me a project is incomplete without a banner. 
Other embellishments are white lace, washi tapes and a wooden 'baby'. The base is fabriano card stock

It is my first try at envelop making. I loved it and hoping to make many more.
Thanks for dropping by to visit my blog. Your words are my encouragement and inspiration. Thanks everyone.

All Pinky 'Card in a Box'

Hello there crafters....

Hope everyone out there are busy as bees. Ok today s post is a Card in a Box. It was for a lil girl and so i added lots of pink in it. Girls and Pink.... it was always a great combo but now a days girls once into the teens want to distance themselves from "Pink" cos i guess pink screams cute cuddly and a baby all over. This is because i got a couple of requests for 15 16 year old girls asking kindly avoid pink :)
Here is my all pinky card for a 9 yr old :) Have a look

The popping elements i have added here are few but take a look at the 3d banner i have added. Do u know how i created it? I took a curvy strip of transparent sheet and stuck the lil triangles to it, then added lil bows at the end. Then to this set up i added tooth picks to act as poles. You might get a look at the tooth picks in the first pic and the next one. Simply loved it, i should have taken a individual pic of it i guess



The popping elements

I have paper pierced the tatty bear from a PP and added 3d elements to it, Lil glittery stars and bday hats. And to the back side i have added another sentiment and left some space for personal message.


The back view

And finally i made a coordinating box cover for it, all pinky again ;)


The box cover

That is all for today, hope u enjoyed it. Thanks for stopping by.
Have a great day

Classic Colours- Black & Maroon

Well well well.... keeping up with posting regularly on blog.  Its been a long time since i had posted any Explosion boxes, so here is one. And it is in the beautiful colours of black and maroon.




I have worked with the ribbons to give it a pleated look, used my glue gun for this. It requires a lotta patience but in the end it is totally worth it.  Have a look, i have given the same pleated finish on the inside for the tag pockets too.

Bunch of Bananas- Fancy Dress Costume

Hello dear friends

Today i am posting an idea for a fancy dress costume. There are a lot of pictures and costumes available for 'Banana' fancy dress. But i wanted to do something by myself and something differently.
The Grapes costume done with balloons is a common one now. My idea originated from that. Instead of round balloons, i choose the elongated balloons (as shown). Sourcing these balloons in a single colour might be a problem but the good news is that a single balloons can be cut into 3 or 4 pieces, ie a single balloon will give you 3 to 4 bananas. Yeah it is a little hard work pumping all those balloons and knotting it but it sure gives a great look



Here is my son with his banana costume. As a final touch, paint the bananas very lightly with black paint and also the tip. It looks just like a real one.





Finally pin the lil bananas with a small golden safety pin to a yellow top and a matching pant. Make sure to arrange the bananas row by row so that u get a even look.




This particular picture is from the event itself. He wore a brown woolen cap to represent the crown of a bunch of bananas, complete with a yellow sock.


The elongated balloons


Hope it was useful to you. I had lots of fun doing it and the kids enjoyed flaunting it.
Thanks for dropping by. See you soon again

Travel Album

Hi there...

Am not anywere near changing my sluggish way around blogland. I am very random in dropping my ur blogs too... but my! wonderful creations... unimaginable creativity.... beautiful inspirations. I wonder how people manage two worlds. I end up soo tired at the end of the day- kids, house work, craft orders, math classes in the evening and social commitments(uff). But the pleasure from crafting, yes it is there as i craft a lot. Just no time to blog. In the end all my new creations end up in my FB page and none here, which is just not so good.

Ok here i am with one new Travel album for a client. I loved it soo much that i wanted to keep it for myself ;) Anyway its just the cover page today.


Front View

The base is a self designed handmade sheet, just the way i needed it-rugged and vintage. I just played around the embellies and atlast found the right place for everything. The orange sheet below is a burlap, love the texture. The clock epoxy sticker is a fav of mine. I have been hoarding it for a long time. And its perfect for this months LESSology theme #44-Tick Tock.

The list of items i have recycled here are the buttons(from a old screen cloth) the small jute threads attached to the buttons and the brown jute twine, its called 'chanal' in my local slang and used in packaging. U can find a lot here.



View of the tabs

The sticker are free downloads, printed on glossy art sheets. I find this pretty cost effective rather than purchasing branded sticker packs.
