Flopped!

Well, my efforts at clicking a photo everyday have flopped.. While i religiously clicked the photos in January, I just forgot about my little project by the first week of Feb.. I think the issue was that i wasn't getting time to upload the pics online and so the excitement just fizzled out!!

:D Some other year maybe then!! :) In the mean time, I am BACK to crafting!!! yay!! I got a new craft room in my newly rented house (well, it has been nearly 6 months now, though i got time to sort out the room only last month).. I made a calendar in January, some anniversary cards last week and i am trying a new technique using Glitter with stamped images using the glue-pad... I thoroughly was inspired by lulupu's current challenge. So far, the results have been mixed, will share my card sometime over the weekend even though it might not qualify challenge dealines! :)

03/01/14 - 365Project

I think I am doing good , i have remembered to click a photo for first 4days of this year :) In this post i am updating for 3 jan only.. My 1st & 4th pics are in a camera so will need time *away* from my daughter to turn on my laptop and upload them.. I guess this way i'll end up using my phone more :) just cos of the ease of use..

#3 Hailstorm from office window

My second work day of the year was pretty unimpressive with half the office empty and not much enthusiasm among coworkers.. So when this hailstorm struck, everyone was glued to the windows till it lasted.. It looked awesome.. And if you notice the windscreens of the cars, you can notice the bunch of hail-stones accumulated..

365 days of 2014 in pictures

I have been terribly busy lately!! Got a new job, moved to a new house in a small town, trying to get my daughter to settle into her new nursery, taking care of her while she was getting sick again and again, a small (3 weeks!) vacation to India to meet friends and family and some other stuff!!

I have not been crafting lately amidst all that hoopla, so had no motivation to turn come to my blog and say something! But this year I have made a resolution, inspired by a friend on fb, to make a post for everyday in this year. :)

My posts will not be everyday, but there will be a post (with a picture) for everyday.. Atleast thats what I am going to aim for! Good Luck to me! :)

#1 Amaira with stickers on the plane 01/01/14

We love to travel. This was my daughter's 3rd abroad vacation and her 7th flight. She would run across aisles and meet other kids and would be really naughty. She would touch all baby's head as taught by us to touch Syon, her cousin. To keep her busy, we found some stickers along with headphones - 'wake me up for food' and stuff like that. She was super fun to watch! I feel blessed to have her in my life.

And we travelled on 1st day of 2014, may we keep travelling throughout the world!

All in a box!

My darling husband decided to wear shirts with cuff-links a few months back. While they do look smart, keeping the little pieces away from my little daughter and away from getting lost was getting difficult! So, What do i do? Well, I decide buy a box! And with crafty wife around, how can the box not get decorated! 

This how i decorated the box - 

Used a lot of washi tapes and really had to stop myself from overdoing since, my husband would not have used it! :D He is wary of using anything thats OTT.

I bought this SHERIF badge a few days back from a local party store and was dying to use it somewhere! And when i was going through my knick-knacks to upcycle something (for LESSology challenge), i found this rather cute handcuff pendant. I gifted this to my husband in those early days of our relationship, when we were *young*, err.. ok, *younger*!! We could wear almost anything and get away with it! LoL!
