Tapes ,tapes and more tapes


Got to know about this blog through one of my crafty buddies..thanks,happy to have found a blog dedicated to tapes..I was searching for an inspiration for a scrapbook page (father's friends and colleagues theme).So this sketch gave me a kick and I made this layout in 30 mins...loved the result.
I have used washi tapes and decorative tapes.The top and above are the flaps made up of washi and PP.Each of the flaps say "Friend in need is a friend indeed "and "best colleagues in the world".I am in love with the tapes  and want to use more and more in my projects..I have stamped different sentiments on the down left corner.
Thanks LMT for the inspiration and chance.Submitting for the november challenge.

Hi all,
I am soo much honored and happy to receive this award from Pooja whom work I admire a lot..she is very good at reusing and I love her rangolis..should come to to learn it. Thanks for the kind and appreciating words Pooja.

About the Award
Liebster is a German word meaning "Beloved," "Favorite," or "Dearest." This award is a peer to peer award in which fellow bloggers present the award to their favorite bloggers with less than 200 followers. The origins of this award is unclear, but is believed to have originated by a German blogger. This award was designed to be a blog award in the pay it forward fashion to share your dearest and most beloved blogs that have less than 200 followers.

2) Post the award to your blog.

3) Give the award to 5 bloggers (with less than 200 followers) that you appreciate and value.

4) Leave a comment on the blogs of the five people you have chosen to let them know.

 And here comes the most difficult part to choose 5 favs amongst so many favs.There are so many bloggers who have inspired me and encouraged me..I would love to pass this award to all of them but since the condition is less than 200 followers and also that some of them have received this award already..I could shortlist these following 5 bloggers.

Rajni Chawla(Beauty n Best):I am in love with the talent of Rajni ji.Her painting,her quilling everything is just superb.My most fav is her Buddha paintings.I wish I could take classes from her on painting.I admire her patience and color combination.

Nupur(Nupur Creatives):I admire Nupur's cards and paper creations.Her baby card is so neatly and perfectly executed.The color combinations and punch work are also very neat.Do visit her blog to know more about her work.

Kalanirmitee:I came to know about Kalanirmitee through quilling cafe.My most favourite of her works is quilled Shivaji.It is so unique and neat.

Last but not the least:
Anushka(Sunshine Creations):She is just 11 and so much filled with talent.Her card creations always amaze me.I am passing this award to her as my best wishes and to encourage her in all her crafty deeds.Keep it going dear!!

Flowers

I tried making different kinds of flowers using different materials..since I wanted to use them on my scrapbook pages.
First one is a tissue flower made up of thin layers of a tissue..it's hand cut and quiet delicate..I must found a way to stick is so that it does not get squished.i have put a star brad to hold all the layers.

Second one is a flower made up of 2 materials,a decorative tape and ribbon.

Third one is made up of ribbon and stitching method.

Fourth..is a common one a rose out of ribbon.


loved trying new things...hope to do more..till next post..auf wiedesehen(c u again in german).
