My Latest Quilling

I've been so busy and it seems like Christmas has snuck up on me! I have managed to make only two things the last couple of weeks...two ornaments. The first is an ornament of about 1/4 inch with the center spiral that is a 1/2 inch. I then sprayed it with a glaze coating. I love the sturdiness of it.

The next ornament I made for a sweet friend who had twin boys. There is pulled out cotton in the background and then the two quilled babies in front. On the tag in the front is their names and birthdate. Of course this ornament doesn't come apart,so it was quite the challenge to place and put everything in. Hope you like it!

Quilled Ballerina

Quilled Ballet, Dancer I wanted to try something challenging and I saw a picture of a ballerina that I thought might be the one. Well, here it is....I used a combination of beehive and regular quilling. This is in honor of my daughter turning 13 today! Happy Birthday!!! Quilled Ballerina Quilled Ballerina

Quilled Pointe Shoe

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.

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.
