A LO and a Mini-Kit Freebie

2008-06-04T14:36:00.001+05:30

Hello Everyone!
This is a preview of a kit called Henna Kit that i created in GIMP All by myself a few months back. This Kit is inspired by Henna doodles and artistic designs. Henna is an integral part of ceremonies and festivals in India. This Kit was available for download for a month or so but then i went to a place without any internet( Believe me, Its true and VERY possible in India) and was unable to keep the link activated. So I decided to share it again for those of you who missed it. And Of course its FREE! Everything is 300dpi for good printing. Its a self extracting zipped file so it should download in a flash! I mean it! And Here's the LO I created using the kit. To give credit where credit is due: I used Gimp Brushes found at deviantart for this kit.

This is my first Kit ever so please give me feedback( if u were not able to use it or if u were LOL). I would appreciate it very much. TY Guys for looking! Hugs.

Hi Again
Seems like I am on a LO spree today! I created 2 more with a VERY Wild [read Gorgeous and Fun :) ] kit by Jen Smith Designs called "Gone a little wild".
1. My son ia a BIG Mango Lover. And NO, He just wouldnt eat them if u cut them to pieces and hand him a fork!! He likes it in BIG Chunks and the messier he gets, the merrier he becomes LOL!!

2. My Sister LOVES Goa. So much so that she often plans of leaving everything and get settled there, LOL. If ever a discussion happens as to where we should go to spend the vacations, she invariably comes up with Goa! These pics were taken while she went to the Goa Carnival this year. I Really LOVE the Pirate One.

To get this Kit Check out Jens Blog at http://jensmithdesigns.blogspot.com/ for a link to her store. Believe me, This Kit is Gorgeous and perfectly suits the FUN pics!
Well, Thats it for today. Almost 3am now and i gotta get some sleep!! Goodnight.

Hello Everyone! I've got news! I am a proud member of the CT Team of Jen Smith Designs! YAY!!! This is my first time ever as a CT and I am SOOO Excited :)

Here are the layouts I created today.

The Beautiful Kit is called MarshMellow Dreams created by Jen Smith Designs.

Description for the LO's:

1. My son would not listen to me when i tried to explain that nail polish is meant for girls only ! LOL. When he was asleep i clicked this shot.I think his feet is really cute dont you? .

2. He always leans on my shoulder or hugs me tight and says the cutest ever "please" whenever he is not getting his own way! LOL But he already knows that it does the trick and melts me down.

TY for looking everyone!

2008-06-02T00:48:00.001+05:30

Hello everyone. I am posting my first LO that i created after several months. I was living in a place where there was no internet connection and so I have been off the Internet for a while. Anyways, I took this picture of my son when he tore my appointment book and realizing afterwards that i wouldnt like it he was faking to be asleep! LOL :) He closed his eyes shut but the NAUGHTY smile on his face is still there! I just had to click a shot before i asked him about my book. To create this LO I used kafrounettes add-on to a kit called natural. You can find it on her blog at charlenescraps.blogspot.com
