Birthday Greeting Card

Hello friends, 

AGE is merely the number of years the WORLD has been enjoying YOU.

ALLSORTS is celebrating 9 glorious years of challenges. Although I have known their wonderful challenge blog for one month, it has been an amazing and pleasurable experience playing with them every week. So, this greeting card is specially dedicated to them.

We are back with one more of greeting cards where we have used quilling technique.  Quilling is a fun way to create custom embellishments when you don't have one in hand. Don't you agree?

Ain't it lovely

If you want some ideas for birthday greeting cards, then do check out the following links:

http://thecreativetwins.blogspot.in/2016/08/birthday-greeting-card.html

As you can see, it is a birthday card with a cute quilled teddy bear merrily holding colurful balloons. As soon as we hear the word "Birthday", immediately images of balloons, gifts and cakes pop up in our mind. They are a must in every birthday bash. So, undoubtedly, we have included the trio in this greeting card. We have added googly eyes to give it realistic look. We have also created a quilled cupcake appropriate for joyous occasion. What's a birthday bash without some gifts? Finally, we have completed the look by adding some pearls and polka dots ribbon in pretty pink.

We are entering into the following challenges:

Greeting card

Hello friends,

We are here again with a greeting card.

When given a choice between pink and blue, it has to be undoubtedly pink for me. Pink has been my favourite for as long as I can remember. I love pink in all its tints and shades. I simply adore pink for it gives a feminine touch and adds desired softness. I buy atleast one pink outfit whenever i go shopping despite knowing that I already have many. Such is my love for pink and everything pink.

We have made a gate fold card as part of fancy folds by Allsorts challenge. We have made the card in monochromatic scheme. We have hand-drawn a cute little girl with a bouquet of flowers. We have used some pearls to add glamour. This card would be perfect for any occasion.

Mother's Day Card

Hello friends,

We are back with a new post which we have especially created for the coming MOTHER'S DAY and thought to combine it with a few craft challenges.

Today’s card is also a basic card done in “Black- White- Pink color” combo. Initially we were clueless about making it, but then an idea struck our minds and we went ahead with zentangle art. It has come out better than what we imagined. We were keen on keeping it “Clean & Simple”, so you can see as to why we have not used a lot of embellishments.

We are entering the card into the following challenges:

1. Challenge #131 - Black, White and Pink
2. Pearls or Mother's Day (where applicable)
3. Challenge # 16 Anything Goes
4. Papercrafters' Linky Party 12

{PIN}spirational ANNIVERSARY Challenge #213

Linking it to the following challenges:

1. http://cleanandsimpleonsunday.blogspot.in/2018/04/challenge-131-black-white-and-pink.html
2. http://brownsugarchallenge.blogspot.in/2018/04/challenge-277-pearls-or-mothers-day.html

CD Tea Light Holder

Hello friends,

Take a look at this unique, exquisite and really easy-to-make tea light holder. 
It’s a great way to put into use those CDs that you need no more. Don’t throw them out!  You can make all kinds of great things with them!

If you love crafting with CDs, you need to check out:

https://thecreativetwins.blogspot.in/2018/03/tealight-candle-holder-using-old-cds.html

https://thecreativetwins.blogspot.in/2018/01/beautiful-cd-rangoli.html

This one's really simple, with minimal supplies required;

• ·         Old CD that you are about to throw
• ·         Kundan stones/ rhinestones in colors of your choice
• ·         Half pearls
• ·         Ball chains
• ·          Glue / Fabric glue

We have created a basic design, but you can let your imagination go wild. In the centre, we have stuck a layer of purple ball chain followed by half pearls and added one more layer. Then, we have pasted pink rhinestones around it and again layered it up with half pearls and ball chain and they are good to go. Now decorate your home in style! 

We are entering into the All sorts challenge, with the theme “PEARLS”. We just love pearls, they are versatile. They add elegance and charm to your projects. They can be used in jewellery, handmade cards, rangolis, photo frames and just about any mix- media projects.

http://allsortschallenge.blogspot.in/2018/04/week-464-use-pearls.html

Thannks for stopping by.
