And as B suggested that I should blog hop @ PTI, for she gave me a set of PTI stamps as RAK..... I thought this was the time.....

PURCHASE, RAKS & A SECRET SANTA GOODIES!!!!!

Heya! Back with a post on my recent LOOOOOOOOOOOOT! ;)

Now I feel quite well equipped..... I have already started nibbling on them ;) Ya! I love to savor them visually for sometime, for I can't believe I have them, now..... I would unpack them 'slow & steady'.... ;)

Yes, sometimes I really go crazy.... Especially when it has got to do with crafty stuffs..... :) So here they are.... A JHALAK!

Recent Purchase


When Banu came down to Bangalore, she got these stuffs I had asked her for.... I am so thankful to her, that she managed it along with all the other stuffs she carried with her.... Really generous of her.... I just don't seem to express myself enough! She even suggested what was worth & what I could do without.... Since she has been there & done it all, I left the choice on her as to choose what was good for me & otherwise.... These are the many few ;) things she got for me.... YUM!

Recent Purchase


Along with the above, she even added a RAK... SO sweet of her.... :)

B's RAK


And on the occasion of Christmas, The Latte Lounge, held an event...called the Secret Santa.... I participated too.... & these were the goodies I received from my Secret Santa.... So thoughtful of her to put these yummies together for me... :)

SecretSantaGoodies

And me as a Secret Santa, being here in India, thought it best, to send my recipient assigned, something Indian...... I put a few Indian handmade stuffs for her.... I hope & pray, it reaches her 'safe & secure'....

That is it for today..... Enjoy every moment conspiring LOVE & AFFECTION!!!!!

UNTIL NEXT, KEEP THE FAITH!!!!!

ATCs & TAGGED TOFAs............

Heya! Few more backlogs clearance..... Aah! I really had a pile..... & eventually I did not like the way it looked.... So here was the perfect time... Time after break, just heading towards getting my Mojo back..... to work on projects & satisfy my yearning to create something nice with all the yumminess I have collected over time..... :)

So first I would like to share the TOFA that Kavitha from Kalalaya, shared with me, a month back..... & well it comes with a tag too... To list 3 things about myself that makes me different.....



And those would be...... Here @ my Foodie Blog..... which are totally seven..... (I hate to talk about myself, frequently....)

Well, my crafty counterparts who visit me here, can go ahead with just listing three.... as was originally tagged..... :) So anybody who has not been tagged with this TOFA, can go ahead, pick it up & flaunt on your space with the tag....
Wishes & Hugs)))))


And now regarding the ATCs for the month of September..... It was an awesome ATC challenge that month, Kitty Kitty Kat Kat!!! which made us put together a kit of a similar ATC we made, for the recipient to make one too..... I loved it... & this was my take for that month..... :)

ATC I made

THANK U CARD!!!!

Hello! I made this card a day before for my Friend B, who I met online a few months earlier.... And after that there was no looking back kind... I was just looking forward to see her ASAP.... & Voila! There I got a chance to meet up with her.... :)

She came down to Bangalore, a week before & I gotcha see her.... We met over a lunch at her mom's place... I simply loved the meeting both with her & her mom... They were very friendly & inviting..... I have received so many RAK from her & it surely meant a lot to me, with all the lack of craft supplies here..... I love every single goodies I received from her, which in turn helped me a lot to improve my card making skills.....

I wanted to let her know, how I felt.. Hence made this simple card for her..... But with all the excitement I totally forgot to address it to her.... & gave it to her blank..... :( How foolish of me to do so.... I spent some valuable time with her discussing few crafty stuffs..... She had got me few supplies that I asked her for, before she came down.... And with the cuttlebug, I really needed them to move on.... Along with the supplies that I asked her, she gave me another RAK, too.... Just imagine my state of mind, with all those excitement & YUMMINESS! Hmmm.... Well she would have left back to US again.... Those first memories of really meeting up with her would remain with me forever.... She is a truly blessed soul, with a BIG heart.... I'm so touched by her gestures..... :)

May God Bless her with all happiness.... Hugs)))))

So here is the card....

Thank

And I Thank.....

StampTV for their Sketch....
CaardVarks for Monochromatic......
