Here are all the cards that I got for my birthday...my most treasured possessions...and the funniest part of this birthday was that my husband gifted me a diamond pendant..and yet I was more excited to get stamps than receive that pendant!! How shameless could I be??? Does anyone share my love for stamps so much??
In no particular order....here are the beauties that grace my shelf !!! I hope I haven't missed out on any cards..if I have...please forgive me...I'm way too much dazed these days!! Have been climbing forts for 4 days in a row...that's a post for another day!!
This gorgeous creation from Hussena...Thank you for the sweetest surprise!!
This gorgeous bouquet card literally took my breath away!! Thank you Priya!!!
This awesome Emboss resist card came from Asha along with a super cute card for my mother in law (we share the same birthday!!!) and a beautiful Domino book for me!!! its a tiny book!
This gorgeous vellum embossed flowers are from Priyadarshini...Awesome..now you made me want to have those flowers!!! one more set I need to have!!! Its a good thing my anniversary is next month!!
This super super crepe paper flower is from Shruti...Love that bling butterfly!! Thanks for the awesome card!!
Spardha captured all the butterflies in Delhi and put them on my card...superb misting....each butterfly has pearl mist on it..and that blinged butterfly at the corner..superb!! you made my day girl!!
These trio of butterflies made their way from Karuna...Thanks a ton for these gorgeous beauties!!!
This little box of goodies is from Shalini...(You gotta share how you did those butterflies..are they stamped or is that a PP) and this little box opens up to house 8 mini mini cards...
Each of these mini cards is a piece of art in itself...all gorgeously stamped and distressed and well, if you thought I'd use it to gift it to other people..you're wrong..I'm gonna hoard these forever!!! :)
This darling card..with cake and bling and loads of senti mush is from Khush!! (so sorry for the muddle up) love the glossy accents on the butterflies and the coloring..super!!
This one comes from my friend Forum...she has just learnt quilling on her own..and she made this for me...Thank you girlie....(Khush, Hussena, Suganthi...you might remember me asking you for a flower tutorial for a friend of mine...this is her)
This gorgeous card made its way from J&;K....Thank you Snehal for the gorgeous card and the most gorgeous sling bag I've ever had...Thank you Thank you again!! :)
This gorgeous card from Sudha totally made my day!! Thank you for the beautiful papers, stickers and the card too!! Thank you so much!!
This card from Swathi was the first to arrive...I took this pic from your blog girlie..I seem to have misplaced the card while cleaning my place!! Thank you so so much for thinking of me and starting my festivities early!!
This super super awesome card arrived just an hour ago..and was too lazy to photograph it...so took the pic from Priya Sivraj's blog...this card is even more beautiful in real life....Thank you so so much Priya!! and Thanks for the Pie lane butterfly..being a butterfly addict, I still didn't have it in my collection!
Phew!!!! that is one lengthy post....but I did warn you....And if you've made it till here...here's the last pic of my birthday gift...for which I jumped more than I did when I got the pendant...you girls know me well... thanks again!!
And this book from Khush....thanks so much baby girl...will love to give it a try...now I need more tools....maybe I should give you a list...my anniversary is next month...(I'm sure you'll kill me if I make you broke)
Thank you my dear dear friends...Thank you a million times over....I'm over-whelmed and stunned at the love that you've poured out for me....I'm happily basking in the glow of those friends and the friendships that I hold near and dear to my heart....
ETA: this card is on the way..in transit..but had to show it off...it is like saving the best for the last!!!
