Card it!!!



Hello everyone!!

We all know that college is the best part of anyone's life and the best part of college is , the celebration of different days. I hope you all are enjoying the days , because for many of us this year is the last. Take in all you can, because these are the moments that will become memories. sob sob :( will miss my college .

Anyways coming back to the topic -> cards!! Cards have forever been a medium to communicate your feelings to someone. Because when it comes to admitting your feelings even a soldier might not have gut to say it. Sometimes its hard to tell the person how you feel , face to face. That's where card comes in. You can write all your feelings in it and just no need to say anything. And cards always touch the person's heart, especially when they are handmade.

When it comes to saying thanks or sorry, very few of us can say it out loud. If you can't than don't worry. Write it in a piece of paper. simple! And there is never a better time than present to thank your loved ones. How many of us thanks our parents for all of the things they provide us?? Just because its their duty does not mean they don't deserve a thanks. They don't even expect it from us. So surprise them with a "thanks" and see how their faces will light up. And to make it more special, make a card with your hands with all your love, because anything made with love is beautiful.

So today there is not much to show you but just some basic paper candles i made!!

Materials i used are some craft papers, thick or woolen thread, glue stick!!

To make the candle:

1) cut small squares of craft paper according to the height of candle you want
2) stick a small piece of thread to one edge of paper so that a small portion is visible
3) use a pen to easily roll the paper in circular shape just like making a cylinder 
4) stick the end. Here u have two options either you can use glue or tape. I prefer transparent tape because its less messy and easy. Just make sure that the tape size is small. 
5) stick those candles on ur card base, write ur message and tadda u have ur own handmade card.






And let me tell u one thing!! Even if you are not clear on your idea to make something, go on with what you have. I always do that and than in the process my mind keeps refining and improvising and the final product always turn out better than expected.

And remember a few posts earlier I told you that buttons look good anywhere, so here is one example :P

And here is one i made for my friend . I hope it will cheer him up :) PS i added googly eyes , just luv them :D



So go on , make your card and say what you need to say! Its now or never!!

see you later
till than 
bye bye
take care
and keep spreading LOVE :)
