Handmade flower card

This is another card I made using my handmade flowers. In case you missed my other card made using the same flower, do visit this link.

I have kept the card pretty simple. The shaped background is hand-cut from an old calendar. I used punched flowers and some of my potpouri as embellies.

Do let me know how you like the card. Love to hear from you!

I entered this card in the following challenge:

New Cards.......for the New Year!!

These are probably my last cards for the year....... but certainly not the last ones from my stable ;)  I have tried to keep them quite simple.

On your Wedding Day!!

One of my colleague wanted me to make a card for her cousin’s wedding. So I came up with this design. It was made in just one evening and am glad it came out well. I made the envelope too so that it matched the flowers!

Flower basket

I made this cute little basket for my husband. He has been eyeing my other miniatures for a long time. So I thought why not make an exclusive one for him. It adorns his office desk now :).........

Fringed flowers

Each flower is made from 1.5 cm x 21 cm long paper. Fold the strip of paper in half to make a log strip as shown in diagram.Cut the top off the strip of paper at an angle making sure the folded side is on the right. Snip all along the folded edge, the cuts should be very close to each other, stopping at approx 3 quarters of the width of the strip. Cut right across to remove the lower triangle as shown.

Feed the top point i.e.open edge of strip, into the slot of the quilling tool and roll up. Glue the ends.
