Birthday girl name plate

Little S recently turned 2. This is the name place I made for her birthday to put below the birthday banner. The alphabets are hand drawn and cut. I used the colourful file liners for the different alphas. Applied glitter on the outline for each of the alphabets.The lace at the bottom is a rub-on craft lace. Made a quilled border with roses and leaves.

Do lemme know if you liked it, would love to hear from you!

Little S had a hair cut!

Hi friends
Here is a layout featuring my little ones first hair cut.
In our custom,  a childs first hair are dedicated to god. We took her to the barber shop and she had her hair cut sitting in my lap. Thankfully she did not understand then , what was going on. Hence it was done very quickly. I cant imagine the same now. Now if we try to trim her hair, she becomes so conscious that she would not let us touch her hair even when she is asleep!!

I arranged her hair cut photos sequentially, with the outcome at the end. Fuzzy cut the last pic. Have used washi tape as a base for the photos along with some doodling and designer lace.Have used the clip arts for scissors and comb. The alphas are glitter stickers and rub ons.

Hi there!

Hi people, did you all miss us?? hope you did coz we did too. I am back to work after a looong leave (spending the most cherished time of my life with my little one). Moved to Sydney from Melbourne. So now you know what kept me away from blogging, but I did try to catch up with all the updates happening around and did try to visit most of my awesome friends in this blog land.

This layout features my daughter in her crawling stage. She was so fast when crawling, she would be at one place a second ago and in another room the other second. She loved all the nooks and corners of the house and enjoyed playing with the wires.

Used lot of 3-D animal stickers. I found them very cute and with similar expressions as my daughter. :)

The top right photo is her under the chair! The bottom left photo is her looking at an insect from the big glass window. I went out of the house and took her picture from there.

Thanks for stopping by, hope you like my layout.

Precious moments with mama - Best wishes on your birthday!

Hi Friends, wish u all a very happy new year.
Here's a layout I made featuring my bro n daughter. Love this photo of both of them. Wanted to keep the layout simple. Painted some circles using kitchen roll, hand cut the rectangle frame from corrugated sheet. Used a twine on the heart which was present on the paper, to match with the color of the frame.

Many many best wishes to my little bro on this special day, may God bless you and give all the happiness.

Quilled hearts - anniversary card

Hi Peeps, sharing with you today a anniversary card with two hearts in red.

 Sometimes in a project, you wish you had stopped yourself a little earlier and not overdone the project :( This is one such project. I wish I had not filled the bigger heart completely, it was looking so pretty with the smaller one filled with beehive and the bigger one outlined. But alas, what is done is done. Does this happen with you?
