The cover of my mysterious project

WARNING
This is a pic heavy post.
And my project isn't complete so you can imagine how many pics it comes with when it is complete.also I haven't clicked many pages.
The cover.This I made for the D2d progressive challenge.that is how it started.But later it shaped to become a sort of a scrapbook.I am making it for a friend.
I love scrapbooks and mini ones too but have never tried one coz i do not have the basic stuff needed to make one.

But since the itch was always there and so was the idea....it suddenly formed to take shape yesterday.

This one also gets its inspiration from the ongoing challenge at DYSU.

and I am quite enjoying it.it is pretty addictive.
okay after all the mundane rambling here are the pictures.

Tri fold card

Hey peeps!
I have been busy( so what's new?).Wanted to share that I conducted a workshop, on how to improve one's English through phonics and phonetics ,with teachers and parents at the Air Force school...and it was a huge success.So I will be conducting similar such workshops and also teach children Phonics and Phonetics.It is a fantastic feeling to hold a child's finger and lead him towards a great hobby called READING.
Anyway that was not why I bothered you all.I have a card to show you which is incidentally my first tri fold card and it came out pretty well for a first attempt.The image is fromThe stamping boutique and I have coloured it with water soluble colours I bought from Ujjwal.The paper is from studio Calico and the ribbon was also bought from Ujjwal.It was raining incessantly hence the poor picture quality.

This was made for the ongoing progressive challenge at The Crafter's cafe.Please try and enter the challenge.
Thanks for passing by.

P.S. Right now I am working on something very exciting....something I have been meaning to try but could not.Will show you glimpses of that and of course the cover.The insides have so many pages that I will get bore clicking them and you will get bored looking at them.Can you guess what is it?

Last minute card

Strange name for a post isn't it?But I am getting increasingly a last minute person.Almost had forgotten about this challenge at Yvonne's blog and its last date.Tejal's post reminded me and I am glad I tried this one.Not only did I learn a new technique but also loved creating and kept looking at it for quite sometime.
Alright net acting up so without further ado here is my card.

FALL CARD

Here is my card .

Flutterby Butterfly

I am sorry for this hurried post.Still in the middle of shifting.A major chunk has been done but a substantial amount is still left.I had to post this card because it is a progressive challenge on D2d blog and the deadline is very close.
The image is from D2d and I have colored it with color pencils and then added a touch of glossy accents.I have used my new Ippity stamp and the frosted white ink too which arrived yesterday from Ujjwal.This card is suitable for the skipping stones sketch challenge and the sentimental sundays-anything goes challenge too.
the gemstones are from pie lane.
I managed to create something with whatever was left in this house....since the rest has all already gone into the other house.Hope you like it.
