Detachable Christmas Ornaments

Hello All!

A friend suggested this idea of making a Christmas card / ornament, and I simply loved it. I love cards, but hate it when they get dumped somewhere after the occasion. One can finally get around this problem by detaching the ornament from the card, and putting it up on the Christmas tree, year after year!

Here are a few ornament cards with a Christmas theme, and they seem to be the ideal holiday gift! Snowflakes, candies and Christmas trees...bring on the holidays :)

Tent Cards

Hello!

Tent card is a standing card, with a window in the center to showcase a trinket. Found this tutorial about making tent cards, and with some modifications made my own tent card displaying a quilled cactus pot.

Marine Life

Hello!

Planning for a vacation to Florida inspired me to come up with a quilled frame with an underwater setting. Hope you like it!

FR002 - Marine Life

The fish are made using a technique called 'multi-strip scroll', with an added twist on the 'tail'. Thanks Suganthi for introducing me to this technique. I had collected some ocean glass a few years ago, and that made up for a very apt bed of rocks for the weeds to sprout from.

Greeting cards

Hello!

Yesterday was a busy day, quilling-wise, and at the end of it I had multiple greeting cards ready to be handed out.

Tried out the 'beehiving' technique, and fell completely in love with it. Here is a rainbow heart card, made using the beehiving technique. Thank you Susan for inventing this technique! The quilling community owes a lot to you. A big thanks to Pritesh for introducing me to this beautiful technique.

GC003 - Rainbow Heart

A simple card created using the looping technique.

GC004 - Looped Flower

Another one with 'Malaysian flowers' on it. These are my favorite quilled flowers so far! The leaves are made using combing. Will put up a tutorial on both these techniques soon.

GC005 - Malaysian Flowers

One more simple card, with a lovely butterfly!

GC006 - Flower and Butterfly

All these cards are purposefully left blank, without any message printed in them, so that they can be used for any occasion.

Cheers!

Butterflies in my home

Hello!

A friend gifted me a scarf with exquisite butterflies painted on it. Got me making a range of various quilled butterflies!

A delicate butterfly, can be framed and put up as wall decor, or can be made into a greeting card. Don't you just love the bling on it!

FR001 - Bling Butterfly

One more card with a different type of butterfly on it. The wings are made using a technique called 'multiple color looping', and the body is a solid paper bead.

GC002 - Looped Butterfly

I love butterflies. Rest assured, there will be more quilled items featuring them, soon!

Cheers!

Have a good day!

Hello!

Red lady bugs are my favorite insect. They take me back to stories I had read as a kid, about Mrs. Lady Bug, who lived in Flowerville, and was always busy gathering nectar.

Found a poster online, and it turned out to be a wonderful inspiration for a quilled greeting card.

A 'good day' greeting card to brighten someone's day...

GC001 - Have a good day!

Don't be bugged....have a good day!

Cheers!
