How to make a quilled fringed flower.

In the following pictures I will try to show you how to make a quilled fringed flower.    
First I cut a wide piece of scrapbook paper
and then a thinner piece of paper.
Taking the wider piece, I cut small cuts to make the
fringe careful not to cut all the way to the end.

I then start the flower by wrapping the smaller strip of paper on my slotted tool (or toothpick) and when I get to the end I glue the wider, fringed piece to the end of the narrow strip and proceed to roll it evenly and tightly until I get to the end.
 I add a small amount of glue to hold it in place.
 I then take the flower off of the tool and after it dries, I gently take my thumb and push the fringe away from the center thus completing the flower!

My daughter took Pointe this year at dance and being the end of the year, I wanted to make a special thank you card for the staff.  I drew the outline for the shoe and then filled the spaces with 1/8 width quilling paper.
