Miss You Card...

Quilled spiral roses
A very special co-worker of mine will be moving forward in her life next year, so I wanted to make a special card for her.  I used heavy scrapbook paper for the card itself (which is what I've used for all my other cards) and then I used spiral paper roses on the front and the side of the inside.  The roses are made from thin scrapbook paper with varied pink designs. I cut the front of the card so that the right inside of the card peeks out.  I then used 1/8 width quilling paper for the border around the words, the leaves, and the vines.

Another Ornament for Christmas

I found some more ornaments in my closet of craft stuff while cleaning this summer.  Obviously my cleaning didn't get very far being so delighted with my new discovery!  I found a cute clip art a while back of some holly leaves, so I thought about how I could do it inside the ornament.  After a few minutes, I was ready to start.  After gluing two leaves together, I gently pushed them inside.  I then used a plastic butter knife to keep them lying flat and let them dry.  I then added the third leaf.

Quilled Horseback Rider

I have a close friend who has trusted me to create several pieces for her and this was one of them. It makes me happy to have a new challenge and this was indeed one. I used a photo given to me as a reference and quilled atop a print out of it. I have the photo cut out in my pocket protector and am quilling on top of it careful not to glue the paper to the plastic. I use straight pins to hold it together until it dries. Here I’ve taken the quilled rider and horse off of the styrofoam backing and added to a background I added of layered trees. Here’s the final piece…
