A Special Something for that special someone

There was a time, not long ago, when accounts were captured in passbooks and memories in diaries.... The word was carried far and wide by inland letters and post cards... Every single day, the postman's arrival was anxiously waited for....
The times have changed and so have we. ATMs dispense money and pens lie in the shadow of keystrokes. Hand written letters have become a rarity. Emails are here to stay.
It's an era where the electronic marvels have become indispensable. The internet is booming and connecting with people has been made ever so easy. Most information is just a click away! Kudos to these advancements in technology.
There is, however, a flip side to this metamorphosis in lifestyle. The personal touch in invites, wishes and even gifts has reduced drastically.
Cards have always been my way of expressing affection to people near and dear. In these changing times, it's an attempt to continue an age old tradition.
Below are pictures of a few cards that I have hand crafted. The driving force behind each of these exclusive cards, is the smile that I see on the face of that special someone.


All the flowers of all the tomorrows are the seeds of today...



Variety is the spice of life!



Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting with the gift of speech.



Be the change that you want to see in the world!



Kites fly higher against the wind... Not with it!
