Photo cards in a box...

I made this box set a while ago. I used some of my photos on the cards...I love the result so much, that I won't use it or give it anyone else! Does anyone else feel that way about their creations?






The box set was inspired by a project by Godelieve Tijskens on http://stampingmathilda.blogspot.com/.

Happy Sankranthi!

The first festival of the new year!
We're off for a weekend of kite flying with dear friends...
Here is a picture of the first champa flower that has bloomed in my window box garden! Isn't it gorgeous?! and the fragrance is fabulous!
Enjoy!

A new card.

This is the first card that I have made in the new year...A birthday card for a dear friend. I used Stampendous stamps from the 'Hand of Friendship kit'. I nested it on a pink vellum cut with Spellbinders Nestabilities and added a green sheer ribbon.  The lace background stamp is from Hero Arts.
Enjoy!
