After Dallas's encouragement to look for weekly challenges, I hurriedly stamped this card at 11.30 pm last night.
The birthday wishes stamp is from Docrafts, UK while the dog stamp is probably from the States. Sorry, could not read the name on the stamp.

I have used Carla craft butterfly punch on red card stock and around the borders is red glitter glue.
This was one of my cards for the first charity sale I had in India. My daughter's friend's mum bought it in an instant.

These flowers were dye cut with Sizzix from silk fabric.
The stems were cut manually from green textured paper.
Ribbons are always a big hit with me hence the bow.
My ten year old lovely daughter made this for fun... and it sold off at one of the charity sales in school.
The pink teddies are Sizzix dye cuts and are made from pearlized paper from India.

She wrote Happy Birthday with pop up pearl glitter glue.
Even though she thought it was not good enough to sell, it went so easily and that was a matter of pride for me...

Even though small children are my big time customers, I am always short of ideas when it comes to crafting cards for boys or men.

This card was made with different textures of paper. I love layering and never seem to tire of it. I sold it my daughter's school family fair to a Japanese lady. I am sure she bought it to send to her son's friend.

Somebody needs to inspire me with cards for boys...
Here is another quilled card coming your way...

The flowers are made from pearlised handmade paper from India.

The flower pot has been punched using Carl craft punches.

I love adding bows to my cards even though my ten year old daughter says I use them far too often... bows remind me of my pretty party frocks as a child!


This was painted by my Mum two years ago. Since I like

it so much I have decided not to sell it or part with it. Maybe I will frame it at a later date.
