1..2..3.. Quilling Recipe Challenge - Quilled Scene

Good Day Reader :)

Off late I'm not at all active over here, I am quite busy with my new assignment that I have opted for a Techie in me :). So not finding much time for blogging. But I am active with quilling. You will see those works in my future posts soon.

There is a quilling challenge hosted in India by Indian Quilling Challenge Group. I wanted to participate in that and at the same time I have one of my friend's house warming ceremony coming in. So I decided to do a quilled house scene.

I have used beehive quilling technique to do this. Here is the outcome.

There are two sets of 1 2 3s here. Let's list out them.

Quilling Elements

1 width of paper - I have used 5mm paper in entire project

2 quilling technique - Border is done with crimped paper strip and rest of the scene with bee hive quilling technique.

3 colours in main elements - all the main elements in the scene are done with only 3 colour

House : Black, Brick Red and Yellow

Husband : Brown, Black and Peach colour for Skin (Off course I have used black in hair and eyes)

Wife : Pink, Purple and Peach colour for Skin (Off course I have used black in hair and eyes)

Flowers : Pink, Purple and Green

Bird: Pink, Purple and Black.

Picture Elements

• 1 House
• 2 Characters - Man (Husband and Wife)  and a Bird
• 3 Flowers

As this is a house warming ceremony a wish tag has been included. a Birdy  wishing Husband and Wife on their new house "Congratulations on your new nest".

It took around 8 hours for me to finish this completely. These days with too many things in life I am getting a bit of time over weekends only for quilling.

I hope you liked the scene. Please do comment.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Quilling :)

Baby Boy - Quilled Exploding Box

Good Day Reader :)

I was meeting one of my best friend after a long time.. who is a "Mommy" of new born Baby Boy. She liked my quilled exploding box so I thought I will make an another attempt with this.

As it is a baby boy  I have chosen  blue and a white combination for the box. I made a white stork carrying a baby as we see in cartoons on the lid. Inner surfaces of the box are decorated with two little baby feet, a feeding bottle, a rattle and wishes for a new papa and mamma :)

I have decorated outside of the box with white flowers.. and Yaa!! She loved the box.

Quilled Love Card & My First ever participation to quilling challenge

Good Day Reader,

As Valentine's Day fever is on everywhere, I was just going through quilling blogs for everybody's creation for Valentine's day.  I saw this - Indian Quilling Challenge Group. I thought of taking part into this, so checked for rules. Rules were pretty simple, Join the FB group, Post your creations in their group album. It should not be from your old creations and should have been done after the challenge theme was announced.

I had this Long Distance Love card created for my shop. I thought I will participate in the challenge.

Here are the pictures

 

I Don't know the techniques yet to apply glue when paper stripes are pasted at edges like above. I am yet to learn that.

I liked the card. I am planning to make it more colorful. Please provide your suggestion in comments.

Thanks for stopping  and Happy Quilling :)

Quilled Boy and Girl cards

Good Day Reader...

It was my sister's birthday and I had to do something very special. I had started learning quilling recently that time, so I thought I will make a quilled card which has two girls playing in park - One is myself and other one is her.

Pictures below

Card Under Progress

One to the left is her and to the right with flower in hand is me :)

(As usual pics are not good. I have already sent this card to her so couldn't take better picture now)

I used paper quilling crimper to give special effect for the stripes which are used as a grass here.
(see video How to use crimper tool from JK Arts group).

For the frills of the frock  I used tight coiled tear drop shape, coiled with half of the length of stripe.

Though the picture is not good.. I feel I did a good job as a beginner level quiller.The Friendship's day was also nearing. One of my friend has gone out of station and was supposed to arrive on next day. I wanted to surprise my friend with my new learning, so I made below card.

My friend liked it very much and I was happy about my learning.  This is how i started loving quilling and now I am addicted to it and I love this addiction.

Thanks for stopping by though the pictures are not good...

Happy Quilling :)
