"Stained Glass"   Easter Egg I started by making a gold vellum cross using five 6" marquises, and four 3" marquises wrapped in black open V-scrolls. Arrange these as shown around a 3" tight circle to form the cross. Make a black oval "collar that fits around the cross. Fill in empjty spaces using "beehive" technique using the new color blend vellums . . . it almost looks like stained glass.

Crimped Easter Egg

I used 5 full strips of shades of lavender/purple/and pink to make this little egg. I crimped them all and then started rolling with one strip.I then added the other four strips one at a time to get the varigated look. I then added a little punch flower for an accent.

  Easter Duckling This little crimped duckling's body is made from a full strip of crimped paper shaped into a shaped teardrop, his little wing is a 6" crimped strip in a shaped teardrop; his head is a 12" tight roll. He is standing in the shade of a large crimped 3 looped wheatear flower ( I used 12" strips). The leaves on the stem are also 3 loops wheatears pulled into a point at the end.

 

I started out by making a tight roll with approximately ten full length strips for the base of the cup. I put the tight roll in the bottom of an actual tea cup and then started adding the quilling one row at a time. After each row dried, I would loosen it from the sides of the cup, then place it back into the cup and build the next row of quilling. When I had built the cup up to tea cup size, I took it out of the cup and made the handle.  The saucer was done in exactly the same way. When both pieces were done I sprayed them with several light coats of Stiffen Stuff 

 

  

Bandaged Heart   This heart is made with a technique called bandaging. I used six strips of pink 1/8" quilling paper and then "wrapped" a strip of red around them. I drew a heart lightly on my back ground and glued the bandaged strips to the outline. The flowers are 3" triangles pushed into a heart shape. I made two pink flowers and one red. I then wrapped one of the pink flowers with red paper and added the stems.

 

Roses for my Valentine   This is one of my favorite hearts. I love the white on red but it is just as pretty in red on white or pink on white. Lightly draw a heart shape on your card or backing. Then cover the lines with 6" marquises. My heart was about 3 1/2" wide; I used 34 marquises. (The number will vary depending on the siize of the heart.) Make 33" tight rolls and glue them as shown. The roses are simply folded roses made with 1/8" paper. I made a dozen and glued them to covered floral wire for stems. Top it off with a paper bow and you have a beautiful card for Valentines day, a birthday or anniversary.

#6 Snowflakemake one 3” tight circle for center of snowflake. Make six 3” open V scrolls, add a touch of glue to keep the open curls from separating. Hold the point of the open v while pushing down on the open curls until the paper separates into a diamond shape as shown. Then glue them to the center tight circle. Make twelve 3” Double scrolls with flag. Glue them back to back and then glue between the open curls of the V scrolls. Make six 3” teardrops and glue them point down between the open curls of thd double scrolls as shown. Add jewels as shown or desired. 

#5 Snowflake   Start with a 3” tight circle for the center of the snowflake. Using the alternate side looping technique make six 9” strips into the arms of the snowflake; pinch into a point on both ends and glue them to the center tight circle.  Make six 3” Open V scrolls and glue them in between the long arms of the snowflake. Put just a dab of glue between the open curls of the V’s. Add jewels as shown or desired.

 

#4 Snowflake-Make one 3” tight circle for the center of the snowflake. Make six 6” marquises and wrap them inside an Open-V scroll; put tiny dab of glue to glue open–V closed and another tiny dab of glue on the loose ends of the open curls of the V so they don’t unwind. Glue the six V wrapped marquises to the center tight circle. Make six more 6” marquises and glue them between the curls of the open V’s. Make six 3” triangles and glue them to the tips of the marquises, Add jewels as shown

 #3 Snowflake   Using 12” strips, make six 6 loop wheatears and pinch both ends to a point. Glue base of the 6 wheatears together. Make six 4” marquises and glue them between the wheatears as shown. Add bling as desired. 

#2 Snowflake   Make seven 6” loose coils, glue six of the coils in a circle around the seventh.  Make twelve 6” marquises, place in spaces where circle coils meet as shown. Make six 3” open heart scrolls, put just a touch of glue to close the hearts and glue them to the ends of the marquises as shown. Add jewels as shown or as desired. 

 

  #1 Snowflake Make  twelve 6” marquises and arrange as shown and add jewels as shown

   

   Poinsettia with crimped centerUsing 12" strips of red and green, make 5 loop wheat ears and pinch into petal shapes.Crimp a 12" strip in yellow, coil and glue to center of flower. This is really pretty ornament if you make

two poinsettias and glue them back to back.

  Ring coil Poinsettia.

 The petals on this poinsettia can be as large or small as you like.They are determined bythe size of the "ring" you wrap the strips around. If you

use a pen the petals will be small, if you wrap around a prescription bottle they will be larger. Wrap the strip around two  or three times and then pinch ends and glue. Use tight rolls for a center and you are ready

to go!
