The Cross

I decided to work on something new and I wanted to be a little abstract this time.  I had it in my mind the phrase "In God all things are possible." Even though I sometimes don't understand why things in life occur, I know there is a reason far beyond my comprehension for it happening. I always in the back of my mind think, trust in Him.
 I used a metallic blues card stock for the cross which seemed to give it an almost cloud like essence with varied shades of blue and yellow quilling strips.  I first layered the card stock pieces for the cross and glued them down.  Next, I cut out the swirls of card stock in the aquamarine blue and metallic blues.  I then glued them down to where they almost flowed from the cross.  On top of the card stock, I then used different techniques of quilling to add the top layers.
 I hope this picture conveys my thought process of His love flowing out to all. Have a nice day!

    1. Carole, thank you so much for your kind words! I love to quill, yet with the everyday hustle and bustle of two kids, work, and life it is hard to fit in. Do you quill? It is so fun to sit down and create with something as simple as it's of paper!

  Here you can see how the paper is crimped...   So all these images keep coming to mind on what kind of quilling-inside-an-ornament I can fathom up now.  Hmmmm.....done this, what about this kind of thing!  Well, I'm having a lot of fun trying out different projects and seeing what and how I can fit things inside those tiny little openings on the DIY ornaments.  This time I was thinking hard about a Christmas tree and how I could put it together inside the ornament and how I could decorate it.  Well, here are some pictures of my thought process and how it came about.  Sincere thanks again to Charlotte Canup of The Art of Quilling  of whom I purchased the pattern to make a snowflake inside an ornament.  She inspired me to go crazy with the desire to see what else I could try! Here I am rolling it with the quilling tool.   Here I've shaped them into squares...   It really is put together inside this flat plastic ornament!!! T...
