Here is another card made using the quilling technique, combined with roses made with paper punches.
this card was made for my sister's 50th Birthday

I was out shopping the other day, and came across a new store in our Local Shopping Centre - it sells all sorts of handcrafted objects - and I spied these!

such quilled gorgeousness!  I can only hope I get this good with my quilling!

Please visit the UnstampaBelles blog and see the current entries and check out last month's winner.
Looks like the Doily challenge was a real challenge, but there were some beautiful entries submitted, again very difficult for the DT to pick a favourite!

I confess to being a bit hard pushed this month to find time to create a new card using quilling.  I have been busy settling into studying at TAFE and trying to get back into some form of routine around the home.  You don't realise just what an impact of having 2 1/2 days away from the home has on your routine - oh how quickly I got used to being at home all the time ;-).

Anyway ;-)  here are some quilled cards that I have made in the past
Oval aperture cut out of cardstock, edged with gold stickers - sentiment stickers placed in the middle.  Various different quilled flowers and swirls placed around the aperture.

Another oval aperture card, this time in portrait mode - Iris quilled flower.
Gold stickers used for sentiment and border.

I have every intention of finding time and making up a new quilled creation ready for the halfway inspiration post - stay tuned!  ;-)
