Goals and Dreams

Here is a small Animation that I made using flash....


To the Goals achieved......
To the Dreams that came true..........
To the Hurdles that were overcome.......
To the Opportunities that were grabbed........
To the Failures from which we learnt some valuable lessons............
To the LOVE of our life.......
To the Year that will be gone in a few hours
And.....................
To the coming Year.............
To the goals...... dreams.......Failures.........Hurdles.......... Opportunities...........of the coming year..........
And to  LOVE and most important of all to our FAMILY............

Good Bye !!! !:) :)

Hi friends!!
This year has come to an end....And like any other year, this year has been full of ups and downs for me... just like you!!!
But overall I am a very happy person.....
I have been active on blog and my life as well!!!
I am learning web designing and graphics....
As well as am doing BFA, which has been my dream ...though it is from an open university, I am happy....

How was your year.....? tell me about it...
I am very very excited about the coming year ....are you?!!

And please wait for a minute....this graphic pic is taking a bit time to get loaded!! :) :)









And about this small animation, I have been trying this thing from more than 10 days.... and I finally posted it....YAHOOOOO....

Life has been wonderful and full of surprises !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Though my life has not turned out as I had expected... ................. ...it has been nice!!!

What more can one ask!!!

Gifting Ideas!!!!!!!!

Here are a few ideas for gifting for the Christmas, new year ad the wedding season.........
This first one ..... I had made this one for my neighbour's child's Birthday......
Simple flower............Easy to make and it looks great tooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

These bags , I had made during Diwali..... The funny part is that, the sweet boxes which I had brought didnt fit into these bags....

Well at the last minute I had to make new bags for the sweets and in a hurry, I forgot to take the photoes... :(

Anyway I used these for gifting books to a few children!!!!!!

Have used Zari tapes .... which gives these newspaper bags more strength.... and goes with the festive mood too!!!

This box contains some tiny ceramic jewellery boxes and was meant for a wedding.....

This friend of mine loves everything natural and recycled......

So I decoratedd this box using these pressed flowers.......which I have many and yet I found it hard to part with... ;)
Well thats me.... cant help it :)

And how about this one?!?!?!

Funny right? Ya!! THis one was for my kiddo's friend who is a bit bossy and likes to race in his bicycle throughout the day...!!!!!!

This one was an experiment !!!

Well I am not so satisfied with this one.... have to try again!!!!

Again this one was for a wedding!!!!
See the bow in the centre!!! Isnt it nice?!?!

SIRIGANNADAM GELGE!!!

ELLARIGOO NAMASKARAGALU!!!!

I know I am totally late.... But better late than never....:)
Kannada Rajyotsavada Shubhashayagalu!!!
Karnataka was formed on November 1st in 1973.....
Until then ours was Mysore region.....
So on november 1st we celebrate Kannada Rajyotsava or Karnataka Formation Day...
On this day, we hoist our Kannada flag, the red and yellow flag...........
So I had thought of doing something related to this theme in these colours!!!!
But I had done this Quilled bird and had forgotten all about it!!!!!
Now suddenly yesterday, when I was searching for something else among my arty things , I found this and so I am posting this atleast now :) :) :)

Some Fancy Dresses and Photoshop!!

These are some of my personal photoes which I have tried to edit using photoshop!!!!!

In this photo, I had dressed up my daughter as Krishna!!!! This one was taken in August 2008 during the festival of Krishnashtami!!!!!! And by far this is my favourite!!!
I have put both the after and before versions!!!!





This is a very recent photo of my daughter....
This was taken for the Fancy Dress Competition during the Children's Day Celebrations!!!
I had dressed her up as Jhansi Ki Rani!!!!!

This photo was takenin Shravana masa of 2009!!!!

Again this one is of this year's Children's day celebrations!!

I have to edit a lot of photoes of my daughter's other photoes too.... but those will need a lot of time ....which at the moment I dont have :( :(
