Summer Camp for Needy Children !

Summer holidays and parents are excited to have their children enrolled for Summer Camp  but not all children have this opportunity. So YFC has decided to bridge this at least for some children and many of us volunteered for the classes.

I took paper craft session, first children made paper rose. They did cut circles, colored, cut into petals shape then made roses.

Later we learned quilling and made some quilled flowers.

Lastly children made cards, they all were so excited to get the card stock, flowers, die cuts and used their imagination to create beautiful cards.

Recycle - Paper Bag Event

Recycle, this is what VFC decided to do by making paper bags. I was one of the volunteer. Great idea and can be executed very easily with some very easily available things. News paper of course, some glue and ribbons.

We made many bags of different sizes and handed over to needy and some vendors.

Chunri for Navratri !

One more experiment with my USHA JANOME. This chunri I made for Navratri for Durga Jee. Loved doing this..

Very Quick Washi Card

Past 2 months its really busy with work and my craft activity is really pretty less, not participating in any challenges and not making anything new much. :( But I was really carving to do something so I made this really quick card with Washi tapes. I saw this simonsaysstamp challenge which was with Washi so I thought it will be quick. The background is all with Washi Tapes though I am not liking it. I really think I could have co-ordinated the tapes much better, still I love Washi tapes so could not resist. The stamped and colored image I already had.

As I promised myself that I will improve my pictures so here is the first try with clean background. 

Details of coloring, I have used BIC markers:

Details of the bow, its not perfect, need to improve on the bows a lot:

A Day Well Spent with a Friend

2 weeks back, on Sunday I invited one of my pretty good friend. Her plan was to come from long long but never worked out. Finally she was home and I was excited to cook also.  I decided to make her pasta, Gobi Manchurian (Dry), Paneer Butter Masala and Vegetable Rice. I forgot to take a picture and later when it was served I managed to get this. Rice is missing here.. The day was really nice and well spent.. We chatted, I showed her my craft stuff, sipped filter coffee... 

Bad pic. :(

New Year Card for my niece

Posting a card which I made to give it to my niece's school mate. Their school asked to get new year's cards, simple one. She is not even 2 years old so I have kept some baby theme. Pic is not good. From now onwards but I have promised myself to take better pictures.

Card with Tag

This month I did pretty less crafting, busy with work and other stuff. Did only yesterday and today. This was made for my niece for her school, later I decided to do a matching tag and participate in the challenge. Though the card and the tag both are not that good and people have awesome creations, still I wanted to play along.
