We crafters buy so many embellishments and they are sooooo costly. Stick pins are one of them. I thought why not make some myself and I came up with some matching stick pins for my projects. See what I made with some beads and wire 
Hope you like it.
Happy crafting. Ciao…

I am gearing up for an exhibition and so crafting away to glory. These days there just papers and tools everywhere around me. If I am not working I am crafting
I have made a mini for the upcoming exhibition. Let me show you how it has turned out.

I have been gifting a lot of handmade things to friends but it’s been a while since I made anything for hubby. When I saw binder clip photo stand on lulupu.com today, made by Snehal, I thought I can make one for hubby. Then I could find lots of similar videos on youtube.
See what I came up with…
Photo will go where pink heart is.
Isn’t it totally awesome?! Hubby totally loved it.
Materials I used:
2″binder clip
Patterned paper for base
Plain papers for flower, leaves and tags
Scallop punch – ek success
Flower and leaf punches
Butterfly stamp (have no clue which brand, it’s a wood mounted stamp I found in my stash)
Coffee and black colour inkpads
Twine
A button
PVA glue
That’s all I guess
Ciao,
~Sakhi
Update:
I made another one in the morning…
Hubby grabbed this one too… 
I saw this super cool journal online: “Wreck This Journal” by Keri Smith. I liked it so much that I wanted it but did not want to buy it, instead I went ahead and made one for myself and a friend. Have a look…
I started with this ordinary notebook from Classmate with plain pages
I decoupaged the front and the back cover pages with the pieces of newspaper (arrow is to show decoupage)
I painted even the inner cover pages (back and front) with acrylic colours (arrow to show the painted page)
These are just the sample pages of the journal. I have used some of the ideas from the original journal but I din’t like a lot of them too. So came up with my own version. It was tough to do that but was fun too
This is the back cover page, decoupaged And even though this journal was suppose to be for me and a friend, I couldn’t help but put my trademark there. Looks so professional, hun?? 
It took me almost a week to complete both these journals. I posted one to my friend today morning. Hope she likes it. I will have to make one for myself again since Cub liked mine so much that she flicked it away…
Hope both the girls enjoy journalling and let themselves free with imagination.
Ciao…

Entering it to BCG #13
For a while now I wanted to have a scoreboard of good quality. I came across a good deal on RUCRAFT where I could get “Crafter’s Companion” scoreboard AND an enveloper too. It arrived today from UK… Yay…
Have a look…
It came packed well (I was a little apprehensive) and this is how the products look. These surely are going to reduce a of trouble for me when I craft.
Cool, hun?! I am quite happy…
Ciao
