Quilling - Halloween Card

As Halloween is coming up and many many beautiful quilled creations and had made cards are to be seen, I too wanted to create something small. Too many scores around the house which I ignore when absorbed in quilling to be done and no more quilling for a while. This card did not take much time. So the next post will be the "Sweet Leaves Blog Hop" on the 4th of November which I think over 20 quillers are participating. So don't forget to drop by to see the many different leaves in quilling. See you then :)

Quilling - Sharks Tale

Looks like Romeo of the sea is having a problem. Both of them are in love with him and he is enjoying the moment. He says "girls, stop fighting over me. I am not the only fish in the sea". But his smile shows that he thinks he is.lol.
 I really liked this movie and wanted to quill some of the characters in it. As usual the strips are 1/16" and the papers are cut from A4 sheets. Hope you like it

Crazy Quilling :)

I called this crazy quilling. I saw a beautiful picture of a wall hanging in one of the quilling books I went through at the annual book show this year. It was a  very creative paper art. Now I know that this is called  multi scrolls, the name I found out very recently on face book. Did not know how exactly it was done but being a person who never gives up till I find out how it is done, I experimented with many strips pasted together till I mastered it and went on none stop, thrilled that I got the art correct.

This Picture was not planed at all. I kept on pasting what ever I made till I got this picture. Makes me really laugh cause the very first comment I got on face book was "beautiful onions".I think the name fit. Now you are raking your brains to think where on earth I got those colours :). Since I was only experimenting, I did not want to waste my strips of paper. So I cut a magazine which had very colourful pictures into 1/16 inch strips and made these scrolls and it really came out fine. Now may be I will use up all the pages for quilling. In case some of you may not know the method, it isn't difficult. Paste about 10 to 15 strips together at both ends and roll up one end. You would get a lovely shape. Try it. It is fun. Good luck and happy quilling till I come up with another quilling :D

Black,Grey and Pink

Face Book has many wonderful quilling groups that exchanges lots of helpful ideas and views . My account on face book is purely to share and learn from other quillers and crafters. It is a very friendly and enjoyable place to exchange ideas on various topics. There are many groups with large number of members. One such Quilling group has a theme every month and October theme happens to be Black,Grey and Pink.

Was wondering what could be quilled with this colour combination and came up with this idea. I think it came out better than I expected. A large design would be beautiful as a wall hanging
