SS#37

Hi !
This is a card I made over a period of  a week coz I really didn't have the energy to sit at length and complete the card in one go.I really loved the simple sketch  at sasya-sketches and was instantly inspired to make this card.Another reason to make this card was that I wanted to use the beautiful punched butterflies I received from Sasya and she sent me so many beautiful  things and an absolutely stunning card that is soooo beautiful I can't take my eyes off it and I look at it atleast once everyday :-) .I stamped the butterflies with red ink with a delicate design border stamp and applied some glitter too because I wanted to enter my card in this week's simonsaysstamp challenge too. Here's what Sasya sent me:

Just to let you know....

Hi guys!! I am back and have sooo many things to share with you all..
I was back in town a week back  ..I had been to my parent's place in Mumbai during my break, while my hubby was traveling to the U.S on work.Sadly I was down with a real bad bout of flu during the last week and had lost my voice for a couple of days too :-( but I'm ok now though I haven't completely regained my strength..I had a fever for almost a week (which is so weird) and had no energy to do anything..my dear hubby was doing so many the chores apart from office work, like getting groceries and making lunch/dinner and also giving me loads of tlc..thanks to which I'm back on my feet :-)
During that week I also received a beautiful and wonderful gift from my idol Sasya and I intend to put up pics of the stuff she sent me but as of now I have no energy (again) to take  any pics.She sent me one of her beautiful cards and loads of papers and stuff...
Well..before my hubby left I had ordered some stuff like dies and embossing folders from acherryontop on my hubby's office address in the U.S and my hubby got the lovely stuff here, but I had ordered my bigshot from another site and 10 days into the order they declined it citing some absurd reason..well that left me in a lurch and I ended up ordering from another site because of which hte bigshot reached my hubby's office after he already left the U.S for India and so it's still lying there :-(  .So sadly my dies are of no use right now.
I have been reading as many of your blogs as I could ..can't get back to creating and posting too...you guys have a nice week and take care!

Hand-made flower

Hi!!
I made another card today and the inspiration was totally from Sherryann's  challenge over at Yvonne's blog of making a card with hand-made flowers on it.I have been a follower of Sherryann's blog for some time now and I love her cards. I love making my own flowers for my cards too so this challenge was just perfect..The sketch is Mojo Monday sketch 159. Have a great day!

MMSC74

Hi dearies!
I made this card for MMSC74  Midnightmadness sketch challenge the best part is that you have a choice  of doing the simple or complex version of the same sketch. sketch ..I chose the simpler of the two sketches for this card. My sewing machine arrived this weekend and was super excited to try out some sewing on this card but only fter a few hiccups did I manage to get some straight lines ...phew! Hope you like it and have a great day!
