heart

Here is my 2 minute valentine rangoli. I drew up a bird on a folded paper, and cut two stencils out of it. I've used a red card-stock as my background. Along with the two birds, I placed a big heart shaped candy box lid, a small heart-candy, a plastic flower, and dusted white rangoli powder over the whole arrangement to make this quick rangoli. I know, it also looks like a face.

The kolam attached herewith is a simple design made out of the (11 into 1) dot template which you had send for the contest. In that I have used 7 colours, the major being Red and Blue, which is the best ever combination of contrast colours! The design is a simple one which can be made out with those few number of dots, with an elegant look, which can be called as a fusion of both traditional and modern designs... in the form of kolam!
