A card I made for the BGC challenge!

Oh! How I forgot the BGC challenge.... I remembered the challenge that was so different - A Movie Inspired CAS!! I liked it at the first glance. Then I totally forgot. When I remembered to check it, It showed some that the Submission close in 2hr 12 mins. I immediately wanted to make a card and I did this one because I had already decided to do one for the challenge.

This card was inspired by the film - Ratatouille

Happy Weekend n Happy Crafting....

A Simple Distressed Background Quilled card!!

This is my first trial with Distress pads(I think recently am doing lots of trials with new crafty items....)

Created a Background with the Distress pads I bought recently.

When I was thinking about what to do with the Distressed Backgrnd, I just happened to have a look at Brenda's Candy pic n I decided to add some bold color flowers. And, added some quilled flowers and made that a card.

Added a Sentiment and sent it to a friend who had always been there with me in everything I do.

Congratulations card!!

This is my second post for the day.

My friend is getting her new house registered in two days. Just Wanted to send her a card for that.

It was too late when I remembered to make a card for her and I just wanted the card to reach her on Saturday.

So, I made this card in a hurry.  Just took the Bird cage and painted it in Brown acrylic colors and colored the white diecuts of the Bird.

Printed a freebie sentiment I had saved a long time back in my computer.

It must have taken twenty mins or less to complete the whole card. I hope she likes the card.

The Bird Cage Die cut is from Kukies Basket  where you can buy Diecuts at affordable rates with customized colors, medium etc.

Linking this card to the following challenges:

1. Deepti's Catchy Challenges - Congratulations card with Colors Blue and Brown 

2. Lady Bug Crafts Challenge  - March Challenge with Color Blue 

Hope u all like the card.

A Wedding Theme Card - My first DT post for Kukies Basket!

Hey Friends,

Am so happy to make this post as this is my first post as Design team member of Kukies Basket.

Devika of Kukies Basket wanted the design team to come up with a Project using Dressform Diecut. I have been a quiller all these time and It was a little difficult for me to come up with a Project using the Sewing room Dressform die.

I always had wanted to try my hands at different types of  projects. This came in as a chance to me. I browsed through the web for ideas and finally arrived at this.

I did my first trial with Pop up cards with a Bride and a Groom as Pop Ups.

I decorated the Diecut which Devika had sent the team with a White lace and added another lace cloth as a veil for the bride.

Left the cover of the card little simple as I had too much on the inside.

I really enjoyed making this.

To purchase such Beautiful Diecuts and various other varieties that can be customized to your choice of colors and choice of medium(Paper/Cardstock) n that too at affordable prices, Check out www.kukiesbasket.in or kukiesbasket.blogspot.in.

Enjoy embellishing your projects with these cute diecuts that will sure add a special touch to your projects. 
Also, Check out what other DT members have to inspire you
