LOL. Yep those of you who have been around me through Facebook and twitter know it already that i moved to a completely new life.!

The last 5 months have been so drastically mind boggling for me and my DH . You “Might” know that we moved to Pakistan 4 years back and couldnt settle at all there :( we tried but it was getting a struggle everyday . So , we decided to take a BIG step of our life and Sold everything that we owned and moved to Dubai.

We have a smaller house here as compared to the 40 room (yep my DH’s ancestorial house , housing 4 families.) , that we had back there . But it looks like we are good… :)

Our house is currently empty with NO furniture at all! , just a computer table , a fridge , a microwave and the common use kitchen aids. We hope to get stable soon , as long as kids are getting their education all these luxuries of life become not so important dont you think?

SO! , while i am at it , i stirred up a very quick Pan chicken tikka on my son’s demand and i would like to share it with you too.. :)

This was so quick to stir up as my kiddos had returned back from school and were hungry and i was TOLD by my 8 years old that you used to be in kitchen when we returned from school and now you are always on computer…. HA HA….

We have to survive my kiddo.. LOL

I quickly went through what i had and threw up every thing in a zip lock back while the pan was heating up . I will also share with you the bed of Potatoes which cooked while the chicken was cooking , as it is also a keeper recipie ….

If you ever decide to try it out let me know how it turned out , would love to hear from you .

A good looking and appealing logo , a well throughout shop banner , visiting cards and marketing collateral are the fields you must not ignore  . there are some great Brochure printing services online and some great etsy premade sets to get you started .

I really love dressing up Etsy shops , i realised how fun and rewarding it is after i did a few on request . So i have decided to add some more and new Etsy shop banners and avatars with custom characters . some of the Premades that i have created are below

These are targeted towards crafting or sewing shops but i have planned and started working on some new concepts using character avatars for some other creative stores. Do you own or have an idea which subject can i create next? .

I could just only look at the works with amazement and wish i could do something like this.

Something i think i do not have paitence for ! and i just love love the paper crafted works of the artists . I came across quilling when my dear internet friend monica introduced them to me and again i am just amazed!.

I came across the works of Helen , through pinterest , it is one of my earliest pin on the boards. And i just love it !

I have seen her work on handsomefrank.com

Helen works with paper, colored and painted, hand cutting detailed and multi-layered scenes inspired in the main by the natural world and its inhabitants, although people and their belongings do increasingly creep into her world!

Helen works from a studio in her home accompanied by her dog Earl but only if he doesn’t steal paper off cuts from the bin!

Get inspired!
