#The100dayproject : Half way through

Hello everyone!!!
Let me start by apologizing for being MIA again from my blog for such a log time. But even though I have been absent from here, I have been actively participating on my Instagram feed. Since April I participated in "The 100 Day Project". It started on 3rd April & ended on 11th July.

I tried to complete it, but could only reach half-way point by the deadline.  Although I have decided to complete the entire 100 days as and when possible.

Today I will post the initial 50 projects here for you to view together.  Let's have a look.

I hope you all liked it. I would love to hear back from you all. Thank you very much for taking your time to notice it. Hope to hear again from all of  u soon. Till then take care. :)

PS: If my posts inspire you to create something on similar lines, I feel highly flattered. But please, do respect the effort I take in conceptualizing and executing, please give a direct link to my work when you are inspired by mine. Thanks for understanding :-)  

Save The Craft YouTuber Video Hop

Hello Everyone!!!
Today's post is an exciting one.  Welcome to the Save the Crafty YouTuber Video Hop Event! I am super excited to be a part of  this event with over 55 video makers that have come together to help out some of the crafters just starting to make videos. YouTube has changed some rules about who is allowed to earn money from their channels and many are at risk so I put together a hop with plenty of prizes to help increase views and subscribers before the end of February (the deadline).  You can find more information about the Video Hop on Justine's blog.  So do subscribe to my channel and do leave comment with your views.

My video is been generously sponsored by Simon Says Stamp & Catherine Pooler Stamps. So keep watching. 

Now let's have look at the cards I made using the backgrounds I created in the video tutorial.

I am submitting these cards to:

Some Odd Girl - Pressie Tia

Hello Everyone!
I am back with another card inspiration using a very cute image from Some Odd Girl.
Lets have a look at the card first.

These are the steps I took to create this card:

1. I printed the "Pressie Tia" image on Strathmore Bristol smooth card stock.
2. Colored the image using Chameleon markers (colors mentioned in supplies below) and fussy cut the image .
3. Mounted the image on a die cut from Spellbinders beaded oval dies.
4. Finally created a fancy card panel using pattern papers from MFT, DCWV & SSS.
5. Attached the card panel to the A2 sized card base and finished the card.

I am submitting this card to :

1. Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday Challenge : Anything Goes
2. Seize the Birthday

I hope you all liked it. I would love to hear back from you all. Thank you very much for taking your time to notice it. Hope to hear again from all of  u soon. Till then take care. :)

Happy New Year!!!

Hello Everyone!!!

Wish you all a very Happy New Year!!!
May this year bring you good health, prosperity and lots of happiness & peace in life!!!

Hope that all of you enjoyed a Merry Christmas and had loads of New Year Celebration.

2017 went by very fast and I can't believe that it is already 2018. 2017 was tough on me emotionally and it has taught me several life lessons which are going to be very useful in the upcoming years. I'm thankful to all my family and friends who are always very encouraging towards me. Also I'm grateful for all the appreciation all you out there have given me. In 2018 I hope, I get to learn more new techniques and work with more awesome people in future.

Here is a short recap of all my artwork from last year.

Thanks so much for all you who visited my
blog and lovely comments last year.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Wishing all a Very Happy and Healthy New Year 2018 once again.

May God bless you all!!!
