Hey Peeps..

Me back again.. :))

I am offlate inspired to again do a card of a different type..
and what best than to incorporate "many" of the same thing into a card.. LOL

Confused??

Well, all i meant was..i have tried incorporating 4 squares into a square shaped card :)

So here's my one of its kind card based on this theme.
As always, this is again a complete handmade card.






I Handcut a square card. And added 4 squares into it.

The pink hearts background is also handmade :) I spray painted it.

The squares are lined with silver glitter quilling strips which are handcut cut yet once again:))

Was wondering what to fill the squares with and that is when my heart said why not fill it up with a story...
a small cute love story may be?? :))

So here's what i did. I drew and painted the similar background of a tree branch with few leaves.
And the main characters of this story are.. OWLS :))

Yes OWLS.
I drew the owl images on a cardstock and hand painted them and stuck them onto the card. The pink owl images representing the female and blue owl images represent the male :).

I have also added the pink ribbon to the female owl images.. My very very small way of creating the awareness for breast cancer. :)



So here's the small love story.



(a) A lonely owl.. waiting for someone special (With half-heart)

(b)Suddenly there is someone on the same branch. (With the other half heart)

(3)Cupid hits and love happens. (the two heart pieces perfectlt fit each other)

(4)And now there is a small and very lovely and happy family :))

Ain't it sweet?? :))

This card is also my attempt for the campaign - "Save the Hooters".

I have also added the taglines to the Story Card :))

This card fits in the theme for the current Challenge Challenge #10...THE GAME is...Four Squares at "The Game" and I am linking the card for the same.

Since my project is also about hooters and little about breast cancer awareness, i am also linking it to CHALLENGE 130 ~ SAVE THE HOOTERS!! hosted by Craft Your Passion Challenges and DL.ART THANKFUL THURSDAY CHALLENGE - 20 (Owls) hosted by DL.ART.

Hi Peeps,

Practising Yoga, as it is said , is one of the best way to remain healthy and fit for life..
In short, it is the reset button for the body!!

Ain't it true??

Yoga is now being globally accepted and practised.

The benifits that it offers... from relaxation to increase in spirituality, from being one of the best form of meditation to being one of the main reasons for providing balance.. the list just goes on..

I have made the card below to depict the few yoga postures.. in short representing FITNESS.




Its a complete handmade card.

The alphabets are manually cut out of hand made paper. The postures are drawn and coloured in black :)

Also added varied colours atop and bottom of the card to mention a few benefits of Yoga.



I am linking this fitness project :) to 4CCC #109 - Health and Fitness hosted by 4 Crafty Chicks :))

Looking forward yet again to know feedback from all of you :)

Many Cheers,
Nazneen

Hi Peeps,

From long have been thinking of doing something different than the regular rectangular card..
Was wondering what to do, and that is when this idea hit my "oh so not creative" mind.
And going with the flow, here's what i have come up with..

A Flower filled heart :)))))




All the materials used in this project are from Itsy Bitsy :)

The heart shaped base and the handmade cover atop it are manually cut.
Flowers were the best option to fill in the heart. I wanted some vibrant shades and finally selected red and pink :) and  made some quilled flowers and added them to the heart.

Also added a little bling to the flowers as well.

The handmade heart shaped cover seemed plain.. so i added some swirls and twirls :) with little paint and lot of bling to it.

To the half folded heart cover, i added a bow.. that i have created for the first time :))


All in All, I wanted to convey that the heart, which is the bestest Gift given by God.. is beautiful.. Outside as well as Inside.. :)

And since, i have added 2 of the 4 B's.. that is -> Bow and Bling. i thought this would be the best entry from me to The ItsyBitsy BIG 'B' Challenge and will be linking my project to ItsyBitsy now.
