Another center opening card.

I thought this card had an Oriental flare.

2011-04-19T15:23:00.001-04:00

Spring is busy with starting herb seedlings, preparing my garden and, of course, quilling!

Work in progress.

This card actually opens in the middle; the vine crosses over.

Kusadama Petals with a twist.

I was experimenting one day with Kusadama petals and one fell on its side. I quickly arranged a circle and topped with more petals. The centers are fringed folded quilled flowers.

This one was too high for the shadowbox so I'm going to mount it.

2011-02-13T13:57:00.000-05:00

Okay let's get our heads on straight.

Game faces please, girls.

Ahhh Show Time - all together finally!

Just Getting Started

A little more definition.

Oh the hair!

Well got that calmed down a bit!

Never mind, I'll wear a hat.

Gotta love the bow.

Here's a little gal I made using multiple cones; she was fun to decorate; especially her bouquet!

I think perhaps she will help the little one earn her "wings".
My big sister helps me with a lot of things and I love her.

2011-01-18T13:10:00.000-05:00

Now here's an Angel with Attitude; no halos for this chick!

Love that red hair.

Can you guess what this little gal is made from??

When cleaning out my quilling supplies the other day, I found some 3/8" paper inherited from a friend, but I never knew what to do with it. Not one to part with perfectly good paper, I started cruising around the web & stumbled upon little minis of angels, people, etc. This is my first attempt and I must say I'm fascinated with this aspect of quilling. Love to play with the paper! Stay tuned for more (hopefully).

It's nice to have a buddy!

Did someone say butterflies.

2009-10-26T14:34:00.003-04:00

Paint spattering makes a nice

background for quilled flowers.

2009-10-24T13:52:00.004-04:00

Quilling is so versatile and can be made to look like something else entirely. Take a look at these examples of architectural quilling from "all things paper" blog by Ann Martin. http://allthingspaper-annmartin.blogspot.com/2009/09/architectural-quilling.html

I know you'll think as I did the finished product looks like a painting from afar. Beautiful! Hope you enjoy it.
