Easy & Inexpensive Autumn / Falls Season Greetings Ft Crayola Watercolors

Hi,
Autumn/falls is one of my favorite seasons.The colors of falls have a soothing& enchanting effect on me. I was born and raised in India, so we don't have a falls season there. Last year I moved to the USA. It was the time of falls season when I landed here. That was my first autumn experience. I loved the colors of autumn season ranging from yellowish green to dark pink or crimson red. My today blog topic is watercolor cards I made on the falls theme using inexpensive Crayola watercolors.
I used Canson XL watercolor paper for my painting
This is how my cards look like
I used the colors green, yellow, orange and red for the card.

Card making - Simple Watercolour Card

Hello ,
Today onwards, I will be adding my card making blog. Card making was like my childhood hobbies. I usually make news cards from pictures and sentiments that I cut from my old cards.
I have a huge collection of cards and tags I made from my old cards
Today, I made a card using watercolours, that too made from inexpensive Crayola watercolour that I bought from Walmart. This watercolour was a random purchase from Walmart as the price was only USD 1.77. I am not sure of the actual price, but it was less than USD 2 for sure.
I used Canson Xl watercolour paper, that is is also a Walmart buy.
The colours are really bright, I have seen so many expert cardmakers using watercolour for card making, so I thought of doing the same. I used Crayola because I don't have any professional grade watercolours with me
The process was really simple and it turned out to be good.
Please don't forget to watch the 5-minute video tutorial of the same

Angle Hinged Cuff Gift Box

Hi,
My today's blog and vlog is an Angle hinged cuff box. This cute box is perfect for holding a ring, a piece of chocolate etc. The box resembles a cube of size 2 inch.
I used a pattern paper and cardstock for making this and red satin ribbon is used to decorate this







































My box looks like this
A hand-drawn template is added for reference
Have a look at my video for detailed steps

In the video, you can see I use pencil drawings. That is only for demonstration purpose. When I make this box for gifting or for selling, I don't use pencil markings. This is really easy to make once we master the method of making this.
Feel the joy of creating and share it with others
