Internet Problem

Hey peepz!

I am back! I know it's been quite a while. Missed you guys! The delay was caused cuz my Internet connection was giving me trouble :(

I will be posting some new cards tomorrow hopefully.

Flowers Everywhere!

Flowers! Again!? YEAH! Lol
Well I had no other idea! This one is for mom’s colleague. He wants it for someone’s anniversary. I know you must be thinking “What!” Its over-the-top I know! But my darlings, it’s SO NOT in this part of the world! *smiles*

Plus, when my dad approves then it's a done deal!

He always likes these flowers.

Again, the flowers are hand drawn and hand cut, no punches, no stamps, no templates! And to top it off this time there is something extra that I did. Can you see the swirls? Well, hand drawn and hand cut! Phew! You need proof? Here it comes!

Well the picture is a little blurry because the swirls are quite light and I did not want to switch the fan off! Hehehehe. This is the first time I have ever hand cut swirls, I have always drawn them but never have I cut them out like this. Apparently they start curling while you are cutting them. And believe me they look gorgeous like that!

To cut these I had to look for a very sharp scissor and what I got was a manicure scissor. It was the sharpest and the pointiest one I had! Lol
I don’t use it for manicure, I am glad I could put it to use somewhere worthy! Hahahaa

I glittered the red ones and just outlined the pink ones because the red glitter looked amazing!

You can see no edge colouring here because this picture was taken earlier. After completing a card I always kinda think it looks incomplete so I always tend to do something with it, hence I coloured the card's edges later on.

Dizzy Dizzy

Am I going dizzy or just in the mood of making circles?! Oh well, I have this design in my mind and as I did not have any decorative paper to match my card stock, I thought of doing what I did as the background. Think of it as a textured patterned paper! :P lol

The pic is not good! Not good at all!

I love the design, maybe next time I will do more things within the circle. I have applied two colour glitter on it to give it a shaded look. The design is made again by me. I have used the same embossing paste that I use. This one takes a looott of time! But the end result is always breath taking. It looks better in reality though.

Going Purple!

Literally! I am going purple! Just got the flu bug! Aaah it sucks! :(
Therefore I wont write a lot (I can hear sighs of relief!).

So about the card, the dark purple layer has hand drawn designs on it, drew them myself. I could’ve just lined them with a gel pen but then I thought of doing extra hard work and embossing them, which took hell lot of a time. This embossing paste I talk about all the time is available in a cone, like when we decorate cakes- yeah, that cone. So I apply the paste and sprinkle glitter on it before it dries. Takes time. Wait till you see the other card design that I will be uploading, that is real hard work! Lol

The image is again from colouring pages, I coloured it myself.
The curvy strip in between is not quite perfect because I drew it myself and cut it out.
The flowers! You peeps know by now how much I love flowers! They add a little something extra to a card! As always I drew the flowers by myself and cut them. The thing on the top right is the same thing as in the middle of the flowers. It’s a circular piece of card stock which now looks like an inverted lens. You can learn all these tricks from Mainly Flowers.

Here you can see the design somewhat. Most of it is hidden behind the layers! Flu has clogged my mind, should've thought about it earlier.

I am loving the colour combination of this card. I'll make more as soon as I get better!
