A Simple Origami Birthday Card

The month of July..... I always say it as, A season of birthdays. My family has many birthdays in this month, including mine. 27th of July was my brother's birthday. It was ages since I made a card for him. So made a simple one.

Here is the card.

Wanted to keep the text simple. So didn't write much.

 I made my daughter gift this to my brother. So, the text says, 'Happy birthday Mama'.

I followed a video on YouTube to make this card. The instructions in the card are simple and can be easily followed. Here's the link to the video.

Do let me know how you felt about the card. Happy crafting..!!

BookMarks

BookMarks

Making bookmarks have always been my favourite. I started crafting with simple bookmarks since my school days. I used to make bookmarks and write some nice quotes on them. That craze of making bookmarks is still on. Yesterday, I spent some time making these simple bookmarks for my friends who love reading.

Here they are...

The space at the center in the below book marks is left blank on purpose. The owner of it can customize with a name or a pic.

Hope you people liked them. I would love to hear from you as to what you feel about them.

Happy crafting...!!

The Black Box

The Black Box...

I always gift a hand made card to my husband on new year. And for 2015, I surprised him with this black box.
This is an explosion box. But I call it black box because I didn't feel like decorating the box as it looked like a mystery box for me. Also, made my husband keep thinking as to what is in the box.

Starting from the inner most box, kept his favorite chocolates in it. The second box has pockets in it and a small note pad to write his resolutions for the year. The next box, I made it as a planner with a small calendar and place for notes. And the last one is for the photos of my cute little daughter. (DH's most favorite)

Took some good effort to make this with my 2 year old daughter around. DH loved it so much. He said, he didn't feel like writing anything on it as it may spoil it's beauty. End of it, all the efforts put in are paid off. Crafting and making husband happy are the best moments.

Do let me know how it is and suggest on improvising it. Happy reading n crafting!!
