Bonjour Crafters, my name is Neha Nahata. Born and brought up in Nepal, now a Delhi Crafter. Scrapbooker by heart but I also specialize in MESSY table and last minute everything. My craft journey started almost 5 years back when I searched for handmade cards in google for my friends birthday. One thing led to another and there was no stopping by. Back then I had no clue crafting could be such an enormous field. Making facebook page was another baby step.Slowly, I connected with people of same field. I started with making simple cards, quilling and 3d cards. I basically now love to make scrapbooks, albums, 3d gift boxes, etc. Recently, I have been trying my hands on decoupage. Hope this journey countinues beautifully as it had been and learning never stops. Love, Neha Do leave some love on my page www.facebook.com/craftmaniaa
