'Thank You' Card making competition

We had 'Appreciation Week' in our office last week. There were several competitions. One that caught my eye was ofcourse card making. I forced a friend of mine, Ankita, to take part along with me and Voila!! we won :D

The theme was ofcourse 'Thank you'. I chose my favourite combination of Purple and Pink. Used purple as base. Used 2 frames of light pink and purple. My mom newly got some stamps from US which I had never used and got a chance here. I have done 'Thank you' stamps on light pink sheet. The rest of the decoration is with bow and flowers.




This is the most admired part. I searched for an idea to do something in 3D inside as it would be different. With a bunch of 7 florets I could make something like below which opens up beautifully to form a bouquet of flowers. Turst me, its a simple craft to do. Learn how to make it here. Hope you enjoy making the card as I did.

Poetry for a cause

Hello!!
I wrote this poem as part of a task given to me by my Santa in office while playing Secret Santa. My task was a write a poem for my husband describing him. This is my first attempt at poetry. I hope you like it.

As happy as me, there were few
Until God sent you!

Mr Dirty looked so hot
Or so I thought

And so I was receptive
Little did I know looks are deceptive

Though he was Mr Dirty
He was sweet and naughty
Caring, sharing and Daring

Like a dutiful wife,
I will be all my life
With a little pecking here and there
For I know your care

Mrs Clean, nagging had been
Until Mr Dirty turned Mr Clean

 In return, I made a card to my Santa. Ofcourse my USP handmade card. Its hard not to notice that the snowman is a rip off from my previous post ;)
