Handmade with Love

Even though my daughter Aadya turned one last month, her scrapbook for the first year is far from complete. I counted today and I have only 8 layouts so far "head hangs in shame".

So I decided to merge my personal and professional commitments here and since I had to showcase some wonderful products from Craftslane shop, I thought I'd do it in a layout featuring a few of my favorite pictures of Aadya :)

When she was about 6-7 months old, she loved playing peek-a-boo with my dupatta and we captured some of her pictures playing :)

I followed the July Sketch at C'est Magnifique. I just love their sketches and kits :)


The gorgeous & fun pinwheel paper called Burst is from Kaisercraft - Save the Date Collection.


These wonderful wooden embellishments are my all time favorite. You can find these beauties at the Craftslane store here.


I made some paper pinwheels using scraps of pattern paper and layered them over the printed pinwheels for a fun look. Can't get enough…

Alright, so I am posting after a long long time but that doesn't mean that I don't love my blog anymore :) I still and will always love it. It's just that with Aadya growing up and demanding more attention, travelling and lots of work to do including workshops, I just couldn't find time to update things here.

But I plan on spending the whole day(that is Aadya's nap time) today updating the blog and scheduling posts.

Today I am sharing a fun new fold I tried using the amazing paper from Craftslane store. The fold isn't new, it's just something that I haven't tried before so it's new to me.


This is how the front looks.
