Valentine card

 

Hello Girls,
         I made this card for CraftyJC-Challenge#6 as a DT.Thanks Jaya.This is an honour.

        This is a Joy fold card, a big one.Made a matching chocolate box just for viewing pleasure.The image is downloaded from internet and colored.Added some heart embossings behind.

        The flower below is made of many hearts ...Below orange layer is made of 4 hearts. The above flower is hearts folded in half and tucked one inside other, this gives a 3D effect to the flower.(Have I used enough hearts Jaya? :) ) Other flowers are from itsy bitsy and the butterfly is a silhoutte punch.
I added a small envelop inside to hide some secret messages ;)

Hope you all like it!!Do leave a comment..

Olai (Letter)

Hey girls,

         Just a quick post..This is a card(donno if I can call so) I made on my cousin's request..  It is gonna have birthday messages on it. He wanted it in this style - like olai..(in Tamil which means letter used by Kings to send messages to somebody) and some quilling.(Mix of Indian and western!!huh)

     I used bigshopper handle for the top hold, and attached bells at the end.Did some quilling,distressing and added some laces.Did some cone lining to add some richness.Just scrap a few words abt this attempt..can I do a few more like old styles?

Punched flowers

Hi Girls,
         The colors in this week PDCC#65 are fabulous and I really wanted to try my hand at it.After finishing the card, I felt the color combo was even lovelier than I had expected.

       I combined it with the MidnightMadnessSketchChallenge#87 .I decided that I was going to do a punched flowers card and So,I flipped the triangle in the sketch to right, to avoid clutter. Hope they dont mind. So far,used a few punches here and there.But this is the first time, I used many flower punches together(all that I have :) ). Any suggestion for improvement is welcome.On the whole I liked the card.

The sketch for the card is
