QUILLED CARD.

HI  friends today i am posting my first card have a look.
                   
          This is a quilled card and i have cased this card based on the design of Karthika Sen's Card  and i am entering this card for Kavithas challenge here.Now a little bit about this card ,this one was a bit tough for me to do because firstly i have never done cards and this is my first attempt and secondly i had to case this card based on any indian blogger so it was a bit difficult as the choices were numerous and i got confused so finally i went with karthika's  card as her designs are so sophisticated  and at the same time simple and elegant.Hope i did justice to her work.
                                  Thats it from  me as always your comments are eagerly awaited so please don't forget to drop in a line.
         i am entering this card for the following challenges too.

CARD OR ENVELOPE.

Hi friends this time i have something new to show .i have been experimenting with different ways i could make a envelope but which would also serve as a small card and this is what i have come up with
     and i also wanted to show how the inside looks like so here goes
   in cream color card i have made a small pouch in which one can place  money or a gift coupon,and in the pink card i have stuck an small envelope.And for those of who are wondering what the card base is i have recycled old wedding cards of course since they make for good background in the absence of a cuttle bug,which i don't posses.

MY FIRST TUTORIAL

Hi everyone this time I have done a small tutorial for making a flower using an Oval punch and since its my first tutorial .I may have made some mistakes so kindly excuse my mistakes.And now for the tutorial you will need the following supplies:
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               Then you need to punch out the Ovals and Sun using any colour paper you want .I prefer a little thick paper as it helps to shape it properly.
                                        
                    Then after you have punched out the shapes, you need to Emboss the Sun like this.
                   
        After Embossing the Sun ,Emboss the Ovals using the other end of the Embosser tool like this.
                                 
                                  
      Then after you  have done all the Embossing,its time to Assemble it,the outermost layer can be 6 or 8 petals depending on the size you want.
                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                                                                                           Similarly now place the petals inside in their Ascending sequence of 5,4,3etc till you come to the centre of the flower .Then using the Slotted tool curl the Oval into a bud like this.
                                   
                                                                                                                            Then place this bud in the centre like this.
                                                                 
                                           Now the flower is complete you can add some leaves to it, and then separate the petals a little by gently pulling at the outer petals to give the flower a fuller look.                                               
                                                     
                    I also wanted to show an Envelope on which I have used this flower .
