Sea Life

You will need a quilling tool, pastel blue paper (11 cm x 16 cm(, olive green quilling

paper (4 mm, 3 mm), and quilling paper in the following colors: purple, rust,

turquoise, burnt orange, olive green, flesh, dark green, pale green, salmon, and black.

You will also need craft adhesive and a card mount.

Making the Card

The background paper is hand marbled to give a swirling sea effect, using white paint.

If you do not want to do the marbling on your own, use a pastel blue paper instead.

Insert the blue paper between the two folds of the card, behind the aperture, and glue

the two folds together. To provide special effects to the weeds, use a fine crimping

tool, or use a ribbler if you wish to make the weeds look coarser.

Crabs

Take two quarter lengths of flesh colored paper. Using the quilling tool, make two

loose coils and glue the end. Flatten one side to form a semi circular shape, as shown

in the following illustration. Join two flat sides of the semi circular shapes with glue,

as shown in the illustration below. To create eyes, make a tight peg on the quilling

tool with black paper. Cut the peg in half and paste on the upper half of the crabs

body. Take the flesh colored paper of two 2 cm lengths and crimp them. Fold each in

half, lengthwise, and then paste them on each side of the crab to form legs.

Octopi

Make two rolls of half-length purple paper with a loose coil. Glue then ends, and then

flatten one of the sides, as shown. With the help of the crimping tool, crimp the purple

paper and cut 5 cm lengths to make the legs. Paste the legs on the lower part of body,

varying the lengths, as shown.

Sea Weed and Pebbles

Make loose coils from quarter lengths of paper: four-turquoise, three-burnt orange,

two-pale green, two-olive green, and two-dark green. Shape three dark green coils,

pinching both sides. Pinch each side of the remaining coils, while simultaneously

pushing the ends towards each other.

To make a 3 cm tall loop, fold the paper into a long loop. Glue the ends to make a

shorter loop on one side. Glue the fish, crabs, and octopi on the card.

Make Sea Weeds using green paper and form four coils (two in light green and two in

olive green). Glue them on the card. Glue loose pebbles and plants on the sea bed.

Cut lengths of crimped olive green paper, and taper the top end of each piece. These

will serve as flowing weeds. Glue them on the card.


7/15

Violets and Snowdrops

Thematerial thatyou will require is 3 mm quilling paper of colors dark pink, dark

yellow, green and violet, 1.5 mm quilling paper of colors dark pink, green, light green

and white. You may also need a quilling too, tracing paper, masking tape, cork tile or

fiber-board, long pins, marbled background paper, and a Card mount.

Making the CardPlace themarbled paper between the folds of the card so that it is visible through the

aperture. Glue the card closed.

The Husking method is used for making petals. The illustration below shows how

the husking method works. There is a different type of layout for different types of

flowers.


8/15

Take the tracing paper, place it on the pattern and mark the dots on it with a pencil.

Place the tracing paper on the cork tile and tape it to position. Insert the pins partly

through the dots and wind the strips of paper around them, as shown in the above

illustration. All the windings are shown larger than actual size for clarity.

Make three of these. Use 1.5 mm dark pink paper to make three six-petal flowers. To

finish the flower wind the paper around it to end right at the bottom. Glue the end as

shown in the above illustration. With the help of the quilling tool, roll a % length of 3

mm dark pink strip into a peg, glue the end so that it does not unroll, and remove from

the tool. Push the centre to form a cone and glue the inside to retain its shape. See

illustration below.


9/15

VioletsMake four of these. Use length of 3 mm violet strip and make four loose coils.

Wind the paper on to the quilling tool, remove it and let it unwind a little, and then

glue the end. Pinch one end on two coils to form teardrop shapes, and pinch both ends

of the two remaining coils to make eye shapes.

Tall Leaves

You will need four tall leaves. Make leaves of differing lengths between 4 and 6 cm.Take the 3 mm green paper and form a loop of about 1 cm length at one end, and glue

as shown below. Insert pins in the cork tile in a straight line and continue to form

loops as shown. Glue the end at the bottom along with all other strips that join at the

bottom.

Insert pins on the cork tile as per the pattern shown below. Take the green 3 mm strip

and work it around the pins as illustrated. When done, finally wind the strip around

the formation and glue end at the top. Pinch the top slightly.


10/15

Take the green strip, make a tight peg with the help of the quilling tool and glue the

end. This will be your flower center. Next, take the four petals and glue them aroundthe flower center in the formation illustrated below. Glue the green petal accordingly.

Base LeavesMake 7 of these. Take the 3 mm green paper and form loose coils as described

previously. Pinch both the ends of the coil and twist a little to give it proper shape.

Make the leaves and stems of varying lengths by folding the paper into half and

gluing them. This provides hardness to the leaves.

Snow Drops

Make four of these. Use 1.5 mm white quilling paper and pin the layout below. Wind

the petals in the direction as illustrated. Glue the end at the top. Take out the pins and

pinch at the point shown.


11/15

Double Leaves

Make 2 of these. Use lengths of 3 mm green paper, make loose coil on the quillingtool. To form a teardrop, pinch one end and flatten one of the sides. Glue the flattened

sides together to form double leaves.

Stem and Thin Leaves

Take the 3 mm green strips of paper, fold in half and glue them together. Snip off one

of the ends diagonally, as shown.

Start gluing the pieces onto the card in two stages. Pieces are glued flat on the card

(see picture to guide you). To begin with place the snowdrops and then place the tall

leaves inside the aperture. Trim the stems to the length you feel is proper. Finally, add

leaves and flowers. Glue all the remaining pieces partially or fully on top of those

placed earlier, beginning with daffodil violets and their stems and base leaves.

Primrose Card

You will require quilling paper 3 mm lilac, red, pale blue, green and very pale pink,

5 mm white quilling paper. You will also need a green Parch Marque paper 10 cm x

14 cm in size, a pen and pearlised lilac ink, a card mount, and crimper.

Making the cardUsing pearlised ink, one can write a quotation on the background. If your handwriting

is not so good, then make use of other alternatives. If you are using a computer,

Eight large leaves and four small leavesTake a green paper of % lengths for large leaves and to make small leaves, lengths.

Now, start making a loose coil and paste its end.

Pinch both the ends of the coil and twist it slightly. To create a border and curved

leaves, paste pale green paper on the back of a very pale lilac and let it dry. Use

crimper on it, if you have not yet cut it. Otherwise, you can use it straight, if there is

no crimper. On the inner side of the edge of the aperture, put a very thin line of glue

and onto its edge paste the border. If possible, use tweezers for holding it. Referring to

the picture, paste all the pieces onto the card and place the flowers and leaves in their

respective positions.
