Pop up box card

hey peeps..

Here I am with a new card I have made.. I have seen this card a lot lately and fell in love with it. I so wanted to make one and now that the valentines is around the corner I thought it would be a great gift. IT is my favorite fold as I really love the way it unfolds into a pop up box and has an surprise element for receiver.

 So I am celebrating love and valentines day with this card.

three step card

hey friends,
Happy new year.. I know it's late but better late than never.. I hope all of you are keeping up with your new year resolutions. I also have one resolution that is to blog more often and make more of cards and try different techniques. So here I am with a new card I have just made up. I generally do not make cards often so I am not good at making cards.
This is a fancy fold card called "three step card".

Details: 
I have used papers from a DCWV stack. I have used Ek success scroll punch to make the background of front panel of the card and I am loving how it is looking. The I L U alphas are glitter alphas which I got from local stationary shop. the sentiment is a stamp I got from Joann's store don't know the brand.
The red daisies one the front panel are punch outs from jef punches. (used two sizes)
I have used MS border punch on inner panels and decorated them with pearls.
the cute birdies are a whimsy stamp colored with distress inks. I sooo love these cuties...

A mix media name plate

Hi all..
Its my first attempt at mixed media.. My bhabhi wanted a gift for her brother and she told me that she wanted a name plate. After discussing we zeroed at quilled name plate but I really wanted some different background this time. Hence I came up with this. I hope you guys will like this.. Any suggestions and inputs are welcomed.

here i have made a mixed media background and then done quilling over it for name and flowers.. and with some touch of mulberry roses it was good to go. My bhabhi was very very happy to see the result and I hope her brother also will like it. After all a happy face is what matters in the end. :)
I am sorry I dont have good pics as I could not take pre- framing pics and after framing the reflection of light didn't let me take good pictures. :(
