~ quilled wedding couple (Katie & Anthony)

~ here is a gift I made for a wedding back in July

it is hard to tell in the pictures but the framed is 8 x 10 

so the quilling is quite large

I love the personalization on this piece

it is one of my favourite projects I've made this year

it was also the inspiration for this card on etsy

~ you have my ♥

~ good morning

I recently had an order for 25 white quilled hearts 

and the customer backed out

soooooo what to do with all of the hearts

.....cards of course

 I didn't want scream valentines

but it could be used for that too

so I thought black and white

it could be anniversary, valentines, wedding 

or just because

~ the newlyweds {quilled stick people}

~ as promised, here is my version of quilled stick people

and they are sooooo much fun to make

 oh the plans I have for these little gems

I can't wait to have a few hours to just play

I want to make a shout out again to Susana and Sandy for their inspiration

~ quilled mexican hat {wedding card)

I am lucky enough to have a few wonderful customers who order cards from me often
and Amanda is one of them...she ordered the black & white dog card from my last post

and three other cards...a Mexican wedding card, a shower card, and an anniversary card

 I was a bit stumped on what to quill for a Mexican Wedding
but we came up with the sombrero

I like how it turned out but, for some reason, it is not easy to replicate
 I am finding it really hard to get the same size as the first one I made
I did make more to sell on etsy but they are not as good as this first attempt

 the shower and anniversary cards are not new designs for me
but I personalized them for her which is always a nice touch

~ happily every after {quilled heart}

~ good morning

my cards have been selling like hotcakes lately

so I have had to do some card making cramming sessions

and it is hard to come up with something *new* every time

so an easy way to make a *new* card is to re-use 

quilled pieces but just change the sentiment

lately I have been spending as much time on the coming up

with new wording as I do on coming up with the quilling

I took this quilled heart which I used on my valentine's card

just change the sentiment, added a hint of bling {cause weddings need bling}

and it is a great wedding card

I've got a bunch of cards to share so check back again

~ cheers

~ mr. & mrs. {quilled birds}

Well it looks like I am on a roll this week....making cards and posting them too. This is the last one I have ready so I better get back at it soon. These long legged birds were inspired from a quilled wall hanging I saw online on an etsy shop called It's Lorraine. I loved the long legs on the birds and knew they would be perfect as a bride and groom.

I saw her shop a long time ago and just ended up making my card recently {but she does still have the wall hanging up on her site if you want to check it out}. Mrs. Bird is very cute but I love the hat and tails on Mr.Bird. I used photo shop to add the swirl and text to my card. I think the polka-dot ribbon is adorable. 

Thanks again

Wedding Dress and Tux...

Hello!!
It's been a while since I've posted...and I don't want to sound like a broken record...but I'm still quilling Nativities {coloured and white, special requests and larger nativities} so I haven't worked on any new projects or cards but a few weeks ago I was working on some custom pieces.

I get a lot of requests for wedding cards and here is a  new design of a tux and wedding dress. I like how they turned out so I will have to get a production going soon as spring is becoming a popular time for weddings.

Enjoy your weekend...
Cheryl

With this ring....quilled wedding rings

Good afternoon
I still have a few new cards to share that I made for the Honeybee festival so here is the next one.

I am always getting requests for wedding cards so when I saw this idea in the book Thrilling Quilling I knew I had to try it. I used the pearlized onyx paper from Lake City Crafts which I bought at Country Lane...a great paper craft and stamping store that I work next door to (how lucky am I). For the 'diamond' I used a heart bling.
I still have a few more cards to share so check back tomorrow.
I hope your day is good
Cheryl
