Hi Dolls,

How is you all?
Hope you had a great sunday. Mine was simply superb...
Since it was a second saturday, I had the weekend to myself. I had already booked the saturday for shopping for some good cardstock and some punches. (and thankfully, my hubby was all the more excited than me)
Anyways, once I got my shopping done to my heart's (and wallet) content, I started to make some greetings. This sunday I had thought of making some simple cards and here they are. This idea was an inspiration drawn from Dr. Sonia and her simple card making style.

This is card no. 1

The flower was not actually meant to be a flower. I had made these seprately for a different project but couldn't use it there. When I was done with the background cardstock for my greeting, I thought of checking my stash for some readymade shapes and found these five colorfull of them. I placed them like a flower and showed to my hubby (Yumz). He liked the idea and asked me to place a dark red color ribbon in the bottom part as you can see on the card. The puches are made by my new punch I got for myself.

A closer look of the flower from sideways. (please don't mind the picture quality. I didn't had my Sony with me and had to work with Yumz's BB)
Next one is a simple yet cute one.



 Courtsey: Yumz for the Red-Black flowers. Myself for the Cream-Black flowers. I am sure both make a lovely combination.  For the flowers I thought of making a beehive. But don't know what got into my mind (surely something good only) and I just rolled the strip and placed it in the black casing I made. And voila, it looked very preety.

Yumz asked me to keep the centre as it is cause it creates a cute star and I definately (now) agree with him. The hearts are punched out from my new punch got on Saturday. Lovely na?

I am linking this card to Mishelfloschallenge - Celebration.

Next one is a special one:

I always wanted to try a window card, though I was not so sure how do you make them. But still wanted to try one with my own measurements. I am not good with maths and drawing straight lines but here comes Yumz in the picture and helps me out.... As always I guess....
Once the frame was ready, I made the metallic maroon curls and pasted them as above. My mother-in-law (PR) was observing me. I then was thinking what to do next. Suddenly she suggested me to make small curls of blue and place them on the bigger curve. Mind it, she is also from Arts (Lucky me)...
I thought it surely would look classy. I made the tiny curls and placed them. She also then suggested to segregate and place a few on the bigger curls curve. And then the pearls was again her idea.

I think I just did execution in this card. The design-head behind this is my mom-in-law PR. She deserved it after all Sunday was Mothers' Day.......

Another pic.....


So here it all goes girlies....

Hope you all had fun art and quilling time this sunday.
