I am trying and I am trying hard, but still the results don't satisfy me. I thought card making would be easy but it is not. I see so many blogs dedicated to card making and I m literally in awe of all of them. I mean people who are doing it since a long time make seriously awesome and unique ones. But before I get a hang of the art, I don't want to spend my money on all the fancy gadgets they use. You know what happens to me when I walk into any scrapbook store, or Crafts shop, I am like a little girl in a candy store. There are stamps, buttons,colors, colorful papers, punches, stick ons, all sorts of funky machines,and I go crazy looking at all of them. When I was in Pune, I could spend hours in the 'Venus traders stationary store' on the FC road. It was heaven on earth for a stationary junkie like me. In such places, I have to control myself before my temptations to buy the entire store takes over me. I am sure there are many like me out there and thats why the stores sell :)
Well coming back to the original reason of writing this post, this is my second try on making a card. Somehow I feel its not even worth a post but still I would like to know your views.
Whatever you see on the card is hand drawn by me. Inspiration is a tattoo design I came across while surfing the net. I used a black gel pen to do the drawing and thats it.
All those who visit my post and know even a little about card making, please share your pointers and I will be a happy learner.

ReplyDeletethis card is also good,bt yesterday's card looks more grand and like it has been brought ready made..Dont know much abt card making,bt i think u could try making this card's background more colourful..
try using other decorative items other than colours. make it appear 2 dimensional by using materials of different heights!!
