Quilling

Well this post is a little different from the rest, not ink, pencil or paint on paper...nope, it's paper on paper! These here cute little paper flowers are made by using the quilling technique.
You make everything with thin long strips of paper. You take the paper and twirl them around something long and skinny (I use tooth pics). While you're rolling the paper you want to shape the paper into whatever shape you want i.e oval, round, long oval... When you have gotten the shape you want, carefully snip the excess paper, put a little glue and let it sit for a bit to dry. Once you have all your pieces ready to go, you can create your picture!!Once I actually have my flowers down and glued on the paper, I like to accessories with ribbons and make it all pretty :)
