Just a Note

Hello friends, 

This is just a note to say hello to you all after a very long time. I may not have been blogging, but have been active on Instagram. Due to time constraints, I found IG to be a a better platform for quick shares. However, due to some recent glitches, I decided to return to blogger & meet old friends who do not use IG. By the way, all that I shared on Instagram has been uploaded in my gallery so, you can visit the page to see what I've been up to all this time.


Products used:
#catherinepooler inks, #pinkfresh studio die sentiment, #spellbinders embossing folder sequins & black watercolor.

Techniques used: 
Ink blending, ink lifting, dry embossing & die cutting

Challenges entered:
#pinkfreshWCMDchallenge - anything goes
#pinkfreshchallenge - color & theme
#wordartwednesday - anything goes
#ssswchallenge - add texture

Thanks for visiting. Hope to be back soon.

25 days of Christmas Tags 2020

Hello,

I'm back and I hope my dear blog friends are well and healthy. Though I haven't been blogging, my creative journey continued. I started an Instagram account as a self-taught brush letterer and had been sharing my work there. I also attempted zentangling and did some sewing. During the lockdown, time was spent experimenting new dishes and family games.  There have been days of procrastination, health issues and time constraints too. I was put off cardmaking after a handmade card got lost in the mail. 

Now, Tracey McNeely's 10th annual Christmas Tags event motivated me to papercraft and blog once again. As I'm joining in late, I'm going to post 5 tags together.
