Happy Diwali- Tri Fold Money Envelope

Hey guys
Welcome back to my blog. Today's post is  a DT inspiration for ItsyBitsy challenge blog which will be running all this month. In India, its time for the most awaited festival....Diwali and we all are gearing up here. Its a very colorful, sparkly and happy festival filled with love and joy.
Since I am already into a festive mood since I have started with the mandatory cleaning of the house to welcome Goddess Laxmi, I have come up with a Tri Fold Money Envelope so I can gift them to my loved ones this festive season.
Here are few sneak peeks...for more information and a tutorial please visit the ITSYBITSY blog by clicking HERE.

I am putting this project up at the following blog challenges:-

1. Addicted to tamp and more Challenge#263 - Holiday - Diwali is an Indian festival and its a big holiday for us. Children get a month vacation from schools and colleges and the festival is on for 4 to 5 days. I have made a money envelope for gifting in Diwali.

Diwali diyas- 2

Hey everyone
Diyas are getting painted and decorated at a very rapid pace....which is very unusual for me...as I am a very competant person and dunt like anything to be messed up. Everything has to be perfect mostly beacause these diyas are made specially for family and friends to be gifted for Diwali. These are the second set of the diyas and more are yet to come....

 Yet again, I bought these diyas from a local potter and then painted them using pearl acrylic colors and decorated with some rhinestones. Don't they look pretty and cute.....I have made around 100-150 of these and I am putting pictures of them. They are just repeated patterns and so I am putting up one from each type I made.

I hope you all like it. thank you for reading my post and have a great day ahead.

Peacock diyas

Hey everyone
Its all festivals in India....and i am gearing up for diwali. Diwali or Deepavali is the festival of lights and its not complete without lighting up oil diyas or lamps or panti. Every year I paint and decorate 100 or more for frenz and family as a Diwali favor with sweets and other gifts.

so, painting diyas on my end is going on in full force at my home and I thought to share a few pictures of one particular diya I have painted.

This is a Peacock diya and I have painted it with pearl acrylic colors and added some shimmer for the pretty shine. I added a few rhinestones to them to make them look a little blingy. Took me around 1 hours to paint 2 diyas and decorate them.
I hope you all like it. Thank you for reading my post.
