ID: MC Nov/12 - Quill - Bonne Fete cards
size: 5"w x 6.5"h each

Created: November 9, 2012

This card was a totally serendipitous card. I started with the quill flower, then the punched center and just kept adding and adding...

I'm also using a French sentiment stamp from Quietfire Design

 

I used my gadget to color the edges of my quill strips with a red Zig Writer, then used a quilling comb to make my loops, folded it in half and added a red quill strip from the center and around the combed loops and then back into the center. I made the folded loops off center for interest.

Punched out the center with Martha Stewart - Punch All Over "Caning Pattern" from black cardstock. Adhered a piece of pearlized white paper (Paper Roots wrapping paper). Layered this to a red cardstock then onto my white card. Added various sized half white pearls.

Used various sticker letters to make my words. Also die cut letters to make the word "Live" (Sizzlets "Windingo") from decorated paper with a piece of Sookwang tape adhered to the back.

Stamped my sentiment using Versafine Toffee and embossed with Queen's Gold embossing powder.

As a final touch added a large half pearl to the flower and cut points into small pieces of green/gold ribbon and adhered them between the petals.
