Winter Scene Christmas Card

I wanted to share with you one of my Christmas cards for this year. I decided on a lovely card designed by Carole Prevost. I used white card stock and Gold and Cocoa Pearl paper from Cricut. For the top layer of the white card-stock, I embossed it with my Cuttlebug. Here you can see all the pieces ready to be put together. And here they are all put together. I used white fabric paint to make the snow dots… Tagged: cards , Christmas cards , cricut , paper crafting

November QuillingFun

Somehow my posts were stopped from auto posting and I have a lot to catch up on and show you! I’ve been mad busy since October making things for the annual Markham Woods Presbyterian Church Pumpkin festival and starting projects for Christmas. I bought some wooden embellishments that are exactly 1/8″ thick. They are perfect for quilling into! First, I stain them and then I cover the back with card stock paper. Then, I take and quill and fill in the gaps with my quilling strips. My last step is to spray it with a clear non-yellowing sealant to protect it from dust. I hope everyone has had a wonderful Thanksgiving (for those who celebrate) and this post finds you doing well!

Quilled Letter “C” for 50th Wedding Anniversary

A sweet couple just received this in honor of their 50th wedding anniversary. It is an 8″x10″ quilled in several shades of gold. I love the shimmer of the shiny strips especially. They make such an elegant statement.

Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to participate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings. And once you have achieved a state of happiness, you must never become lax about maintaining it. You must make a mighty effort to keep swimming upward into that happiness forever, to stay afloat on top of it.” ― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love #vividcolors #instaart #purplelicious #berelentless #focusonwhatmakesyouhappy #digitalart #mandala #mandala_art #mandala_sharing #purplepassion #bluedream #bluesbegone #loveprevails #youareyouronlylimit #fightforit

I believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you’re able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something… it’s about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.

Quilled Letter “N”

I had the opportunity to make a beautiful letter N using the colors maroon, brown, peach, and cream. I always love seeing how various colors come together. The person wanted those colors and a flower in the design. Aren’t these colors so elegant together?

Quilled Leaf Tutorial

I just thought I’d share a tutorial for a simple leaf concept that just uses the marquis shape. To make it exactly like mine, you will need the following: 1- 12″ Army Green Marquise 2- 8 1/2″ Light Green Marquise 2- 8 1/2″ Dark Green Marquise 1 Dark Green strip to wrap and finish the leaf. Roll each strip into a coil all into the same size. I use a sizing board to make sure they are the same size in diameter. Then pinch each end to make the Marquise shape. Take the army green Marquise and attach a light green marquise to each side as shown. Attach a dark green marquise to each side of the light green as shown. Pinch the top to form a pointed end. Take a dark green strip and wrap twice around the entire piece starting from the bottom while keeping the leaf loosely pinched in the shape you would like. Once you’ve wrapped it twice, pinch to shape the point to how you want it. I used three of these to create a larger leaf. You can do these in a multitude of shades of green ...
