Quilled Card

My daughter's birthday was this past Monday and I made her a card using the bee hive technique, which can be found here http://susanquilling.blogspot.com/2011/12/beehive-flowers.html

I saw a tutorial and they recommended about an inch to start the following curl.  However, I used 1 1/2 inch and tried to tighten the coil.  I still like Susan's better.  I'll post the whole picture once she sees the card.


Here is the card topper I had made before I realized I didn't like how the curls and coils looked.

Another V card

This is the card that I originally had made for DH; however, I needed more blue.  I really enjoy working with blue and chocolate colors.

Valentine's Day card

I made this Valentine's card for DH.  I decided to use non-traditional colors for this card.  I think red is too girly, anyway.  I only used Spellbinders and a $1.00 stamp from Michael's

To my followers

I want to thank you for being my followers.  I'm delighted.   You all have marvelous blog and are inspiring!

This is a sample of the Christmas cards I made.  The file belongs to one of the ladies at the BC UK forum.  Very talented lady.  The original file is a pop up that appears when one opens the card.  I thought this was better for what I needed.  The blue paper in the background was iridescent and looked like an aurora Boreas.    Cut with the BC and SCAL3.

Embroidery and quilling - new born card

One of DH's coworkers got a bundle of joy recently.  Here is the card I made for the happy family.  I also used the brad maker because I really like to personalize cards as much as I can.  The frame is a nesties.

Daughter's Grad card



I made this card using spellbinders and SCAL.  She graduated from SDRC; hence the patriotic colors.
