Pirate ship 2

2nd Pirate ship I've made, this one my Hubby talked me into making and wants me to enter it into State Fair, what do you think? The frame was a clock, I took the hands out and covered the design with poster paper.THe materials for the ship are:1/8th paper strips, toothpicks, chop sticks, and string. I think this will be the last ship I make, who knows,lol.

Butterflies and Flowers

Made these for a little girls room, I had made a larger picture with Butterfly and flowers, well she wanted 2 smaller pictures to go with it, I think her mom did to,lol. I love making butterflies, as if you couldnt tell. Cant wait till the weather gets nice and butterflies start twitter around our yard, they are so Beautiful to watch!

Monarch Butterfly

My Hubby found a picture of a Monarch Butterfly one the internet and said I could quill it," I said yea right". I didnt think I could, but couldnt pass up a challenge, he was right to my suprise here it is along with some roses.The frame use to be a clock, I took the hands and battery compartment off and covered the background with blue acid free paper.

Saw these heart shaped cases and thought it would be cute to have something quilled inside, so I made double fringed flowers with leaves. Would be cute for little girls.

Valentines

                                                             Happy Valentines

                                            I havent made many cards, but I thought I would try making one for

                                           Valentines. I cut a heart shape out of scrapbooking paper and placed it

                                            on light purple card stock. I decided to make roses, since  roses usually 

                                            come with heart shaped candy box. I used punches for the small hearts 

                                          and leaves, then topped it off with a pretty purple ribbon. I'm happy

                                           with the results.

another vase

                                                Got the ideas on vases by looking at the vases I have in my home.
                                               And tried to make the flowers close to what our in my vases.

                                                 Made this for someone who loves dragons

Pirates ship

Made this ship for a friend who collects ships, he was really suprised when he got it in the mail.
He couldn't believe I did it with paper strips. Wished I could of seen his face when he got it.
I put the ship on a background I found on the internet.

poodles with background

• Decided to display my poodles in a  shadow box with a background, now they are kept dust free.



Poodles playing

I'm so proud of my poodles,it took me awhile to get my courage up to make them,thought they would be really hard to make. It wasnt so bad, the only thing was it took time to cut the different widths of strips. Got the pattern from the book (Beautiful Quilling) great book!
