Happy teachers day cards!

Hi friends. .wish a very happy teachers day. Teachers are an integral part of our lives. Right from the time we are born..at each step we learn something from someone. .adding to our experience. .enriching our lives.

5th of September is celebrated as teacher's day in India..since it marks the birth anniversary of Dr Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan..who was a great teacher.

Little miss and me made these cute pop up cards for her school teachers. . The flowers are all painted by missy. I was not sure what to make for the front of the card..was thinking of making a black board..so I asked her what should we make. Little miss suggested that we make butterfly. .a caterpillar also that grows into butterfly! Brilliant idea! Perfect for a teachers day card..coz teachers guide and help our little ones to grow in to beautiful butterflies!

Do let me know how you liked our cards.

Circular painted flower card by little one

Hi peeps!

Sharing a card that kiddo and me made for her grand parents.

We painted a a4 sheet with water colors randomly. Then we cut it in circles after it dried. Layered the circles to form the gorgeous flowers and adorned a charm at the center. Made the leaves with punch cut outs.

Do let us know how you liked our card.

Quilled family frame :)

Hi friends, sharing a quilled project after a long time. This one is quiet close to me. Loved these pictures of ours from malaysia tour (actually sydney-singapore-malaysia-thailand tour ). So decided to make a proper display for them. I started with altering an old quilled frame.But ultimately landed up making something entirely new :)

Btw did you notice the little birdie perched on the photo? Actually I was planning to make only one bird at the top left corner. But that bird became too big , so I made another smaller bird. Then thought the same bird will look good in the middle too..hence the second bird. No points in guessing on who suggestion I made the third one :) yes kiddo wanted a company for herself. .she is deeply in love with birds currently. .hence the little birdie.

This was suppose to be hubby's birthday gift which was in aug start. I did show him the preview that time, but the completed one only a little later..as quilling does take a bit of time. My little one was super excited for this gift for her dad and used to be behind me for completing it as soon as I come from office !

Framed up!

Close up

Do let me know how you iked it, thanks for stopping by!

Celebrating 3rd anniversay of my blog with Jungle collage

Hi dear friends

Doesn't feel like its been three years I am blogging. Just started blogging 3 years ago as a way to preserve my quilling and paintings online, so that I can access it anytime.

Now my dear blog has become so much a part of me. It has always been there for me, whenever I was alone, when I needed support, when i was happy and wanted to share my joy! when I wanted to know how my craft has come up. Motivating me, challenging me, helping me.

Met so many amazing crafters in my journey and made some lovely friends. Thank you so much dearies for all your love and support.

Sharing with you today a jungle scene that I made with my daughter. Made a cutie elephant, tree, clouds by paper piecing. The bunny, grass, caterpillar and sun are made using felt. The flowers are made using crepe paper. The border is made using washi tape. The small flowers are hand drawn. Do you see some stamping in red, thats my daughter trying her stamps :)
