Anika Baby Girl Memory Book

So finally i got the chance to share the Memory book i made for Little Anika's first year journey. This was planned since February and then i finally got the chance to finish the entire book. Thanks to the patient Mommy for bearing with me delay.

I had a blast designing this one as we were very clear from the start about what we wanted on each page. IT was a well thought and planned memory book that captured all the special moments for Anika and gifted to her by the parents on her first birthday.

Rekha was very happy to receive the final album and her feedback really touched my heart!

"I loved the Baby Book created by Karuna for my daughter's 1st birthday. It's the prettiest baby book I have ever seen and just loved the way it turned out :)

I am sure my daughter will cherish this gift when she grows up.

Thanks a lot Karuna. Keep up the good work!"

Warning: its a picture heavy post!

Monster Bookmarks!

Hey There

Me is back with "what's new" at my end! My bestie Pallavi from - https://thoushaltcook.wordpress.com  wanted to send some bookmarks to the winner of a Food Blog Contest her blog and she wanted me to make some cute Food related bookmarks.

But i was so absolutely out of ideas what i could do as am not much into bookmarks and then i remembered these cute monster bookmarks i saw somewhere long ago and had always wanted to make them! I think they have a totally "Hungry" look and would be perfect for the custom order :) And Voila we had 5 Hungry MonsterBbookmarks and in some happy girlie colours for the winners!

And here is a pic sent by my bestie. Monbster in action!

Thanks for stopping by!

Exploding Box Card for a Baby

Hello Lovelies!

I forgot to share this box card i had made for Little ruan as a Gift from his Mommy n daddy on his first Birthday

The designs looks a bit similar to a box card i previously made as it was on request. Gone with some happy  colors again. the center piece was to be kept empty as they wanted to keep a Sworoski Crystal Oyster.

I have used the pretty papers from DCWV Birthday Stack . I think these papers fit for anything happy! I also added some die cuts from Doodlebug Cute Cuts-4 sheets- 81 Die-cuts/pack.

Quick Cards

So i had made these cards back when Valentines Day was around but never really got a chance to share.

These cards were made with bare minimum of pattern papers, punches, few roles of Washi Tapes and one stamp set which i had carried along during one of my demo exhibitions. The idea was to tell the audience that you can totally play with your imagination even when you hardly have tools or all the crafty stuff to start with. Sweet & Simple!

Wall Art -Baby's First Birthday

I had made this frame a year ago!

And completely forgot about it..... :) Typical me. This frame was very special as it was requested by a close friend for her Daughters first birthday.

the collage was meant to capture some of their favoutire moments together.All the elements were as per her requirement along with the text! So i knew exactly what i was gonna do. I loved this work as it was bright, girly and a challenge to add so many elements and marry them to look cute!

Here it is!

Kingdom Theme Birthday Invites & More

So this is what kept me super busy all of April.

I had 80 birthday invites, 30 money envelopes, 20 menu placards, a birthday poster announcement and a cordinating Guest Book.

The theme for the birthday was Kingdom and the little prince was turning 1.

It was tonnes of hard work with a lot of cutting, distressing, measuring and phew what fun.

Enjoy the pics!

Designer Door Hangers

Hello everyone,

Am back with another post, finally! April has been super busy with many handmade orders and lots of  family commitments.

I was requested by a good friend to make designer door hangers for her new salon that she is launching here in Gurgaon. the brief was simple its should be feminine , sturdy and read "Ssssh.... in session" as it would be hung outside the message room.

I love such projects where i have the freedom to try out new stuff.

And here is what i came up with. I have used the paper collection mainly from DCWV Gilded Orchard 12 by 12 collection. I absolutely loved this stack! the pink and  orange are form another baby girl collection is dont rem. and yes i am obsessed with ranger stickles. These are absolutely gorgeous! I have all the colours now ; ) And to make them sturdy i also used several coats of mod podge on either side. Lots of elements have been added from various die cut collections from my stack :)

 

And here is a close up. hope u like them!

 

Till next time
