Its for H's colleague's birthday coming up later in the month.
I hope you can spot the bling. Its little gemstones on all the flowers.
This red ribbon gave me the creeps. It took me more than 20 tries to do this knot, and this too was in sheer frustration. Don't know why grosgrain ribbon behaves this way...or maybe I'm just ribbon challenged! Sentiment is from Heart and Soul rubber stamps, and is embossed with clear embossing powder. Doesn't show up too well, maybe coz its superfine emb. powder!
I'm looking for a cute bird stamp. Anyone any links...will be appreciated. But the birdie should be cheap too! something like the bird sticker on the blue happy birthday.
The next card gets inspired from Ayana. Have I told you I love her cards? I have, right! so lets get on to the card. This is my best and biggest blooper card. The sentiment got stamped upside down. I still went ahead and colored it. will find a way to salvage it or just give it like that to someone who has a sense of humor!
This card is one more example of needing finishing touches. This card looks great, but for me it is incomplete. So here go some bling and some dots and this is what you get.. ( the bling got smudged a bit. Pls don't judge me on that, bling has a mind of its own) And as I said sorry for the dark photos..
All right then peeps, good night, off to take a night's rest..

I love the cards... they are gorgeous. the coloring is pretty and so is all the bling. It doesn't really matter if bling gets smudged. We, in India, sure do like all that glitters ;-)

Tejal!!! These are BEAUTIFUL!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love them and all of the fabulous bright colors! You really did a fantastic job!
Oh... and I have done the same mistake before! haha... usually, if I stamp or attach something upside down, then I just cut off the layer and then attach it to a new card base.
But these are so great.
It's too bad we live sooo far away from each other... otherwise we would definitely craft together!
