After a bit of a crafting dry spell, I was really pleased to learn a fun and new paper crafting technique called "quilling". It's evidently been around for a couple hundred of years. I have seen it before and thought it was beautiful but that it looked hard. Well, guess what? It's not! I got my new issue of Stampin' Success magazine and they had step by step instructions. I've completed 2 projects and I've got a couple more in the works. I've checked out a couple of books from the library with ideas and I'm really looking forward to adding this technique to my paper crafting repertoire. Here's my first attempt:
| Stamps: Swirls & Curls Verses |
| Paper: crumb cake, kaleidoscope dp |
| Ink: chocolate chip |
| Accessories: paper cutter, tombow glue, paper piercing tool |
| Techniques: paper quilling |
|
| And here's my second attempt, this one also demonstrating the "center step" fold technqiue | | |
|
|  |
| |
| Paper: apricot appeal, whisper white, apricot appeal print patterns |
| |
| Accessories: circle punches, paper cutter, paper piercing tool, tombow, scallop circle punch, scoring blade, |
| Techniques: papper quilling, center step fold, 3x3 |
