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 


Thank you for stopping by

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

Hello,
I am thinking of publishing my treat box tutorials on every thursday, on my blog and my youtube channel as well. Today i made a box which is perfect for homemade jams, cookies, pickles, etc. This is an easy make box. I have seen so many people making this box using envelope punch board. But my box doesn't require any device.
I used cardstock from Hobbylobby.
For the reference I add a template here

Popup Box card / flower bouquet card

Hello
Who doesn't like flowers? What if we can make a flower bouquet inside a card. So my today's project is a pop-up box card which is filled with flowers, grass and leaves. I made this as a thank you card. But this could serve many occasions.
I used a thick cardstock for making the box. The flowers, leaves and grass were cut using my Cricut explore1 machine
Previously I made a birthday card for a 2-year old using the same pattern but dimensions of the card was different

The box card or pop up card looks like this


 OMG I love it



This is an absolute craft that everyone should try. Though I used a cutting machine to make flowers, grass and leaves, I think it doesn't need a machine's help to cut the same.
For a little help I upload a template please have a look at that too
Don't forget to check my video for the tutorial 

Thank you visiting
