Daring Cardmakers Challenge - Circles
This week’s theme is circles. This is what I came up with.....
2 Congratulations Cards
Here are two new baby congratulations cards, the blue one for a boy n the pink one for a girl (as if you hadn’t figured that out yourself ;) ). They can be used for any other occasion also...........
I really like the way ribbons have been used in this. I stuck the ribbons onto matching paper and cut along the edges using a pattern cutting scissors (the scissors have been lying around for a long, I never really found a good use for them until now).
The “Congratulations” has been stamped using a clear stamp made by my husband at home. He has put together a complete setup to make clear stamps. It is a very messy job and needs some practice to make stamps with more detail in them nonetheless I am really excited about it as now I can get custom made stamps!!

Handmade Paper Cards
Here are 2 of them.
A name can be written below “happy birthday” to add a personal touch in both the cards.
My Etsy Shop
I’ve used bright blue and purple handmade paper cardstock for the base. The “happy birthday” in the background, the birthday cake and the “happy birthday” below it are stamped using clear stamps. The candles have been colored with glitter glue.

Some More Photo Cards
Photo cards are a great concept....I guess framing and keeping them would be a good idea.....and if the frame is also handmade, even better!!
I used one of my favorite childhood picture for this card......yup, that’s me with my mum and sister....guess which one is me :)
I plan to gift this to my mom, I’m sure she’ll love it.......
