Flowers

Happy Quilling Day!  Today I am showing off my favorite quilling item:  Flowers!!  I don't know why I am so crazy about flowers...but I am.  Maybe because my sister Robin has owned a lovely flower shop in Topeka Kansas for years and on all occasions she and her husband, Craig, send me gorgeous flowers.  Or maybe just because they are always so cheerful.  I don't think I need a reason to love flowers.  You will probably see that most of my quilled greeting cards will center around flowers.

This greeting card is a little bit different than normal.  I used different types of paper that have great patterns.  I actually cut the paper myself - which was a true challenge to me since I am left handed and am not that precise with scissors.  But I think this card is really pretty and I will probably use patterned paper more often in the future.

So what do you think?  Here is a picture of the card:

So you can see the different patterns of paper, I took a picture of the side of the card:

Finally, I took a picture of the big flower so you could see the detail and rhinestone.  This is a really fun flower to make.

Have a great rest of your Sunday.  Please follow me and make comments!

Happy Quilling!
