Why? I'll tell u.... First lemme show u a picture.... :(
Oh Yes! My poor little finger..... The story goes like this..... Once Upon A Time in....... LOL!!!! Okay jokes apart..... I sat to work on this project with great enthu because of the lovely bright colors..... I was so involved that I totally forgot my finger & its placement on my work area..... I happily cut through it..... Wept for quite sometime as I was alone... My hubby was not around :(
I somehow helped myself to the wash basin & let the water flow over my finger with it bleeding heavily..... More than the pain, the sight scared me..... I looked for my first aid box for the band aid..... & was happy to hear my hubby drive through.... Opened the door for him quietly as I did not wanna get him worried as soon as he entered..... After he visited the washroom, I showed him my poor index finger & wept my heart out.... He consoled me & nursed my wound & said since he was here everything would be fine now.... & even thanked God that I would not sit to work on my cards now.... But I was like Oh NO! I have to complete it.... After lunch went back to my work place & sat to start from where I left..... I noticed the cut I made on the CS....... & was shocked to see the part, where, instead of the CS I cut my finger.....
So now u can see, (back to pic above ;) how big was that cut on my index finger...... I missed a centimeter on the paper & cut that on my finger instead..... :o
And here is the final project, for which I had to shed not only my tears but a small bottle of my blood too......... :( Well it isn't a card, but a gift holder......

ReplyDeleteYIKES! I know it hurts! Sorry for the boo boo! Your project turned out fabulous, though! Great design and the flap design is wonderful! Beautifully done, Asha! Thanks so much for joining us at Stamptacular Sunday Challenges this week!
ReplyDeleteHey Asha sad to hear what happened ..hope your finger heals soon..Hey if you don't mind can I suggest something?Why don't you get a rotary paper trimmer..jef trimmers are available in one place in my city.They make paper trimming damn easy and safe try some large store like staples or odyssey they may have it ..if you can't find it easily tell me. I will try to see if I can arrange it for you..
ReplyDeleteAww.... I hope the finger's alright now.
