Flowery Birthday card

I have to admit I actually like pre-colored digital stamps so I can make few cards really fast. I own few pre-colored digital stamps from Fred-she-said. One of them is Peony in Jar.  Their colored images are amazing... They have a good collection of floral images. I really want to buy few more from some other stores also so if you know any good store in which I can find pre-colored images, please let me know. I will really appreciate you.

Punched snowflakes Christmas

It feels good to blog more than one posts per day after a long long time... I bought Martha Stewart's Snowflakes punch on Flea Market at Memories Live on store in Cupertino. I got this punch in really good price.. It was lightly used and I bought it for 3$. I think it was a good deal as at Micheal's, after applying 40% off coupon also it was more than 3$. Anyways, I used it in this card as punched snowflakes around Stampin Up's Merry and Bright rub-on.

I apologize for terrible picture for the card...

Another Chritmas wih Acetate

I am planning a trip to India for a month in end of this year for almost a month for my brother's wedding.  He is getting married on the same day when I got married. I will be going after 3 years so I am really excited, we are doing shopping and packing..  

From the same My Mind's eye Wonderful Winter paper stack, I made another Christmas card with transparency(acetate) sheet. From the same set I cut few trees and printed 'Merry Christmas' as digital sentiment. I used Decorate Your Holidays from Hero Arts for stamping few snowflakes on acetate. Few years back, I brought these blue studs from India which didn't have sticky back but now I feel I should use those more often.

Christmas card with poinsettia

When Christmas is near by, what I love is I see holiday mood in everyone... In my office we have lot of work but people are totally in mood of enjoyment(which is not a good thing as we can't finish our work :-)).

How about another Christmas cards with Penny Black's Christmas at dusk sticker's set. I love those stickers, they are so easy to use and of course no mess with that and I get an amazing focal image all the times... :-) I used the paper from My Mind's eye Wonderful Winter paper stack.

Transparent window Christmas card

I made few Christmas cards so after a long long long time, I thought of blogging about it. It's been more than a year from my last proper blog post. :)

Here in my favorite store Memories Live On, they have a Flea Market for twice a year and I always buy good things from there. This year I bought one Christmas papers bunch by My Mind's Eye and used it in this card. I also used a piece of transparent sheet for a small see though window in the middle, cut few trees from the same set.  I used Decorate Your Holidays from Hero Arts for stamping few snowflakes on sheet. I totally enjoyed making this simple and quick card...

Walk:
Walking is a great exercise to lose overall fat, including stubborn belly fat. When walking, walk like you are in a hurry to get somewhere. Keep the abdominal muscles tight and pulled inward, and tighten your buttocks while you walk. This will reduce the jiggle around the midsection and lower torso. Walk about 30 minutes a day, while at the same time decreasing calorie intake, suggests Katherine Zeratsky, R.D., L.D., writing for the Mayo Clinic. Walking faster and for longer periods of time is also a great way to lose weight everywhere, especially around the abs.
