Explosion Box!

Hi there friends,

Sharing with you a Explosion box which I have tried for the first time :)
It was supposed to be made for a gentleman - that's why I have stuck to some masculine shades sans the flowers and butterflies :)

It is a Birthday themed explosion box with 3 layers!
The outermost has his pictures, the middle one has some beautiful birthday quotes and the innermost layer has digital stamps of cupcakes, gifts, balloons and a empty tag for personal wishes to be written on.
The center has a layered cake with "chocolate icing" on it :)

Hope you all like it :)

Love,

Guest Designing for Sentimental Sundays - 23 Feb

Hi Friends,

Yet another post for Sentimental Sundays! This is a purely Masculine Card - for the first time in the history of Pretty as Paper :)
Calypso had asked us to choose from a set of stamps and I chose the "Boxing Glove" and we had to make a background ourselves.So this is what I made :

The background has been made by cutting strips of patterned paper and then pasting them one on top of other partially.The stamp has been colored orange and blue and has been pasted in a oval die cut.
The sentiment says - "Knocked Out!..in your Love" . I have not used any beads, or pearls, or lace or ribbon or shimmer this time on my project and yet it looks pretty, doesn't it!

Leave me your love, :)
Rohini.
