Quilled book marks

Thought I'd try and make some simple bookmarks, with a simple quilled flower.
I used Scrapbooking paper, and laminated it.I added plastic beads on plastic string. I made alot more than whats in this picture, but thought I'd only take a picture of a few.

quilled flowers and quotes

I like how the colors worked in this, and since the poem talks about butterflies, I thought to add some quilled ones. Have a good day!!!

Quilled flowers and quotes

Here's another picture of flowers and quotes. I used 3 colors for the petals,pink in the center then wraped white and light purple around the pink eye shape.The center is a tight coil with white and light purple.
I made swirls again, still find it a little hard to shape and glue down how I want them, but I guess practice make perfect, or atleast better. I added pearls, I think pearls add a nice touch, what do you think?

Quilled flowers and quotes

Here are some more flowers with quotes, not has good as the others, but thought I'd share them anyway .

Quilled flowers with quote's

Sorry it's been awhile since last post, my creativity hasn't been creative,lol. well got into flower mood, so I desided to make flowers and add quote's to them, I think I mentioned before that I'm not much of a card maker, so the next best thing is a small frame with quilling and quote's. Hopefully I'll get better at making flowers with swirls and different leaves. well here they are, hope you like !!!!!!

Kittens with Quilled flowers

There's a craze going on with a new flower called Beehive, the creator is Susan Quillings card, thought I'd make a go of it, mine are a little different and the petal shapes are thinner, but I think they work, here they are

Instead of my usual quilled pictures, this time I came across a picture of the cutest kittens and wanted to use it, and desided on the flowers to go with it, I also used striped scrapbooking paper to go around the kittens, I think it turned out pretty good, what do you think?

Quilled Fairy with owl

Hi everyone, and glad you stopped by!
today I want to show you 2 pictures, first one was shown on a quilling group on face book, and Anni and others including me thought it would be a challenge to quill it!. Cant wait to see theres, I'm sure they will come out awsome!
Heres the picture.

now heres the quilled on, I did a different back ground, using white berch tree's, since the branch is white and brown. It didnt turn out as good as I hoped, but thats ok.

quilled Flag

I'm sure I have posted this long ago, but since it being Vetrans Day, I thought I'd post it again. It's away to display pictures of those in my family that have served for our country, and I'm proud to have it hanging on our wall !!!

The quilling is around the pictures , so they are inlayed.
God bless all those who have served and still are today!!

Quilled wood containers

Spotted these plain wood containers and thought these would be great for gifts!
I painted them and quilled different flowers and leaves on them, some of the flowers have 2 shades of colors rolled together, it makes a nice effect, you may not see them to good, but I'm hooked on them. I decided to add a notebook and a pen that is wrapped in floral tape that holds a flower at the top. What a useful and decorate idea, also selling these for $6.00 what a buy!
Dont forget to click on picture, you may see where I used the 2 colors together. Thanks for stopping by!!!

quilled crosses and magnets

not much to say except, I got busy quilling again and it helps my mind. Here are some more crosses I've done and there sold already!, just click on picture for larger view.

here are some quilled magnets, I aleady had the wooden shapes, that I used for other craft projects, that I no longer make but held onto them just incase , and glad I did. Please do let me know what you think, love to hear from you all!!!

Thank you for checking out my work, have a great day!!!!

Quilled Eagle

Really not much to say this time, except that it took me a little longer to finished, had bad news that my son had passed away, so I've been trying to deal with that, but did just finish this, would love to hear what you think about the eagle!. Dont know when I will post again, but will try to soon, thanks!!

Quilled crosses

I thought I'd try something that took less time and very simple. I came across these wooded crosses that I thought were very nice, and thought it would be neat to decorate them with quilling, so I had my hubby spray them with wood stain, then I quilled some flowers, leaves and scroll, then added long pearls, hope you like!!!!

Quilled Owl

It's been awhile since last post,have been busy with Family reunions, Farmers Markets, and First time Art Fair. The Art Fair turned out great, loved it, so many people from miles around showed up and so many were pleased with my work, and could remember the Art from way back, but noticed mine being more detailed. It made me feel really good inside, although I still have a ways to go in improving my work, as I take as a challenge, and I love challenges!. Well dont want to bore you so here is the Owl, hope you like it!!!! You can click on the picture for closer look.

I used Markers to do some shading in the leaves, and feathers around the eyes.
