Love making Thank you cards

Meant to be sent!!

Hi Friends,

I am thrilled with Wendy's idea of 

and I am absolutely in.I admit there are so many cards I make but can't post due to various reasons.This drive would surely encourage mailing all those beautiful wishes meant to be sent.

Here is my card using my brand new Set of Zig markers and Distress Oxide pads.

This card is for my travel freak friend Pooja,its a shaker card and tried putting her favorite colors Pink and yellow.

I have used Parisian Holiday stamp set from Sugarpea Designs along with Sugarcut TreeScape .The original sentiment was straight which I rounded a little on the acrylic block.As these stamps have great adhesive quality,rounding and stamping was easily possible.

This card was super fun.Hope you liked it too.

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Favorite technique,Making Shaker cards !!

Woohoo...Feels so good entering a new year with lot of hopes,resolutions and love.

This year would definitely be dedicated to my craft love.I had an amazing 2019 on both personal and work front .Honestly feel so blessed after having a rough starting to the year where I underwent surgery for my fingers.

My Birthday is due this Tuesday,7th Jan....I was thrilled to see this amazing card made by my daughter Myra.She is 9 years old and loves cardmaking. She learnt making shaker cards during 2019 summers and since then got hooked to this style.

Here is her card

I like her coloring,I must say she has lot of patience😄For this Card she has used her new set of Zig markers gifted by me.(knowing I too can borrow 😅😈)

She has used Happy Birthday stamp set from Your Next Stamp for penguins,...Gift bags images are from Christmas Cuddle stamp set From Newton Nook Designs and Happy Birthday Die is from Mama elephant.

Hope you liked it.

Do leave love in comments to support this young crafter in making.Would love to show all those messages to her.
