"Your Birthday is the happiest day of my life!"

Hello Friends,

I have been away from the blog world for a very long time now! Not that I have not been creating, just that I have not been active here. I had made this Mini scrapbook for a friend who wanted to gift his wife something special for her first birthday after marriage.
This is a cute one :)

The cover page has PP in paisley design. It is gold and brown in colour. I have kept the sentiment to a minimal - Happy Birthday!

A closer view of the bunch, butterflies and the pearls.

The first page. The left side has a tag where personal wishes can be written.

The next page is a honey comb! The sentiment says Bee Mine :)

More tags and pockets.

A flap to open up which has a pic inside.

The last page has a accordion card. The left side has an empty space to write down a personal message.

And finally the box in which this pretty went :)

Challenges Entered - Color Conceptions - Anything but cards
Beyond Grey - Grown with love - I have used the colours red, yellow/gold, green, white throughout the project and the garden element is of course the butterfly :)

Hugs and Cheers,
Rohini :)

Scrapbook - Love, Us and Togetherness

Hi Friends,

Its the month of love! And I was more than delighted to make a scrapbook for my friend who is about be be married soon. She wanted to gift it to her fiance as a token of her love by putting together all the beautiful moments of their courtship - The stolen glances, the love notes , the sweet nothings!

And I have to admit here that when the people for whom the craft is being made are awesome , the craft comes out to be so much more better :).

Its a scrapbook - collection of photos, blank spaces to write messages, pockets to hold secret messages, creative ways to glide through the pictures and lots of lovely little things.. I'll let the pictures do the talking now.

Also , through this post I would like to thank Erum of Glitter n Swirls fame for being my biggest motivation. Her work is one of the most beautiful I have seen in the crafts world. Thanks again Erum if you are reading this :)

Hugs and love to one and all,
Rohini :)

Scrap Book - Anniversary Special

Pretty as Paper got its first order from a friend who was celebrating her First Marriage Anniversary.
And what a coincidence! First Marriage anniversaries are also called "Paper Anniversary" and this project so well suited the customer, the vendor , the product and the occasion :)

Every bit of this scrap book is hand made : the book, the covers and the pages ! Kudos to my better half for doing all the punching, filing and binding with such a neat and stylish outcome.

Have a look at all the pages which are adorned with sequins, pearls, sentiments, quilled flowers and colorful picture borders. The first page has a delicate quilled design and a sentiment which is hand written by my better half !
