CAS card and Foam cutouts

Hii..This is another card i made along with the first one. Its a CAS card..well i must admit that i dint know what CAS meant..so i googled and it said "Clean And Simple" card. It does sound simple but wasnt so simple for me, as i have made cards occasssionally but CAS cards, so when i thought to make one it did seem harder to come up with an idea which should say "More with Less". Here is the card i made..

It says how a person/friend/family is that extra special in our life among the rest...i think i have started liking the concept of CAS and plan to make more of such cards for occassions to come


The flower and the bird are used as simple embellishments, i cut them out of velvet foam which i liked working with b'coz of its texture and its lightweight and cuts smoothly

Double Pocket Card

Hello everyone...welcome...well this is my first project post on my blog..so quite excited about posting it but hope i manage to link and set up images and everything well..i dint know what to start with and then i came across few challenges and thought to give it a try..so here i made a card keeping the requirements in mind.


This card with double pocket holds tags with special messages and more so its perfect to put in a surprise gift voucher..cash..cash envelope or a cute little present :-)

Below is the closer look of the embellishments..the flowers are handpainted and punched while the butterfly is handcut and painted. The satin ribbon is slid down to open the card..


Since this was my first time posting, it took me time to get hold of photography trying to get the right angle,background,lighting and color.And also the right image and pixels size, nevertheless its a good experience to start blogging and looking forward to learning more, so your comments and suggestions are always welcome..
