This is an instructional blog about how I make quilled flowers, I use the crafters companion quilled flower dies and stamen and spectrum noirs to colour them in with. I die cut the petals and stamen from 140 gsm white card as I find this weight more suitable for manipulating the flowers.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Using your quilling
dies, cut two petal strips and two stamens.
2. Colour them in the
colour of your choice with spectrum noir pens (or pro-markers)
3. Put double sided tape
on each petal strip and each stamen strip.
4. Stick the two petal
strips together ensuring you have staggered the petals
5. Do the same with the
stamen, but leave the very end of the stamen unstuck (no tape)
6. Take your quilling
tool and roll the stamen around this, then add your petals, rolling them round
the stamen
7. Press down hard to
ensure stuck together, shape petals and pull them out
8. Spray with glue spray
and dip in glitter
9. Punch or die cut
leaves, colour in and spray with glue and dip in glitter
10. Add to your card
The final picture is the finished card to which I have added leaves, swirls and branches..
TTFN, happy crafting
