Diwali card

Heya!! This is my 3rd post for the day. Since I am on vacation, I thought I'll quickly share my Diwali cards.

Now about the card. I had been waiting to use these colorful tear drop embellishments since the time I bought them from Pie Lane. The colors are all very bright and cheerful. The stickers on 4 corners are also from Pie Lane.

Wishing you all a very Happy Diwali!!

Diwali Card with PP

Here is my 2nd post for the day. I wanted to share my Diwali cards before the festival is over :) The square pattern is a cut-ouot from an old magazine. The sentiment is cut-out from an old Diwali card. The embellishments on 4 corners are from Pie Lane.

Wishing you all a very Happy Diwali!!

This is my first try at faux window cards and I had in no way planned to make it. I just happened to find an old calendar in my stash and I chose these images to make Diwali cards. And just then this idea struck me.

Hope you like them! Do drop in a line to lemme know :)

Stencil flower card

Hi. This is my first card made using Pie Lane stencils that I bought during my visit to Pune. Those cute li'l blue beads used as embellies are also from Pie Lane.

Hope you like it :)

The blue scalloped border and blue bg for flower is from an old calendar paper. I liked the shaded effect of that paper.
