For my dear Bro!

Posted by Karuna on 8/08/2011 11:06:00 PM

Yep its that time of the year when we shower all our love to dear brothers!!

It's the most awaited 'Rakhi'. I wanted to try something new :) Yes if you know me well you know how much i love "NEW" stuff :D So i didnt make a traditional card like the one i gave him last year. You can see it HERE.

Finally with a heavy heart i tore out my precious Echo Park papers - For the Record! They are just to pretty :) I used some faux stitching to make it look complete :)

This card is based on the ICR sketch and challenge 8 and also goes for the challenge at Cupcake Craft Challenge, Stampin Sisters challenge (Used the Stickers lying with me forever!) and Marks Finest Papers

I love my hubby for making all my cards luk so pretty :) He takes such awesome pics for me!

Supplies: Echo Park -For the Record, Me and My Big Ideas - stickers, Distress inks,

Rhinestones - Kaisercraft, Butterfly - Pie Lane

Before i say adieu here's what i have been upto :) Yes yes.... i tried my hands the newly (did i say New? ) popular Royal flower among quillers :) Please be gentle its my first shot! :)

Also tried this one with the comb.

Cheers
