anything goes

{ Pretty Pink Pastels }

Hi guys!

Hope you are having a great spring weather!

Here in Delhi, however, summers are approaching rather quickly *sigh*

Supplies: Cardstock - White; Paper - Eno Greetings, White Doiley; Fabric - Jute {local};Embellishments - Prima Flowers, Little Birdie Stickers, Pearls {local}, Mulberry Flowers, Twine,
Cardboard Flower, Vintage Clip; Tools - MS Butterfly Punch

Today I have a super-pretty colour scheme inspired by {PIN}spirational Challenge.

Using shades of pink on neutrals and not using a sentiment along actually worked well for this project *YAY*

I have added the supplies list to this post already, but I am obsessed with the Little Birdie's 3D sticker collection and Daiso's oh-so-pretty vintage clips!

bright colours

{ Colour-FULL Card }

Hi guys!

I hope you guys are as excited about Summers as I am! :D

Supplies: Paper-White Cardstock, Eno Greetings Paper Pack; Tools -Martha Stewart Butterfly Punch;Fabric - Tulle; Embellishments - White Paper Doiley, Little Birdie Flowers, Felt Leaves, Mulberry paper flowers, pearls and twine;

I made a super colourful card today because I fell in LOVE with the Fab Friday Challenge #132 colour palette. The colours are oh-so-pretty!

I wanted to make a no sentiment card today because I like to have a card at hand where I don't exactly know what to write on top but I want to show them some love so these work the best!

I used bakers' twine and felt leaves for these to add a mix of texture which I think worked perfectly!

{ Welcoming Spring Card }

Hi guys!

I'm glad winter season is almost over! *YAY*

Supplies: Paper-White Cardstock, Naxy BlueCardstock; Stamps - Studio G Mini Stamp Set; Tools -Martha Stewart Butterfly Punch; Embellishments - Zing Embossing Powder, Paper flowers {local}, pearls and twine;

Today I'm sharing a card with you inspired by the Fusion Card Challenge {Spring Wreath}.

I LOVE the colours they used so I decided to paint my white paper flowers the same. Yes guys, I mixed that paint myself. I am THAT good! *LOL*

I made a wreath using twine and I am glad it turned out so well. I also heat embossed this adorable sentiment in white on the card.

Why the photo you may ask? I am a bit into flat-lay photography these days :)

Playing along with Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #205. It is the month of LOVE after all :)

digital scrapbooking

{ Here I Go Again Layout }

Hi guys!

A very happy weekend to you! :D

I was experimenting with a couple of digital elements on Photoshop and I really wanted to play along with the Kraft+ Challenge this month, primarily because its Kraft, and I was pleasantly surprised at the number of free scrapbooking kit resources we have available online!

Scrapbooking Kits: Paper - Katie's Wish Set; Embellishments - Digital SB Ingredients Kit, Digi Tee Designs For the Love kit;

Alphabets - Sweet Shoppe Designs Bulky Kraft; Fonts - Brusher, Impact Label;

This scrapbook layout was made with all the free digital scrapbooking kits that I found online {and a couple of existing ones that I already had in my computer} and I do like what I came up with. I will be linking up the kits for your reference under the layout.

For this scrapbooking layout, I took inspiration from the lyrics of the song "Mamma Mia" by ABBA and the colours in my layout were inspired by the collage on their blog and their very talented DT Elisa's layout for this challenge!

And thanks to you guys, this song is *stuck* in my head forever!

Since I love designing graphics, I thought I should make a digital scrapbooking layout for this challenge. The best thing that I like about digital scrapbooking is probably the liberty you have to re-size almost everything, from paper to flowers! *LOL*

This photo was taken in January 2014 in Kolkata, India when I visited the city for my last design module in school {I am an architect}. It is a *beatiful* place and while I am talking about it, I would also like to share a few shots I took while roaming around the streets there!
