Quilled Japanese Doll

So guys! How are you all doing?! I think I’m blogging after ..well more than a year I guess!! Sorry that I’ve been silent, but craft-wise I’ve been doing some projects slowly as I’m full time working now. So there’s less time for crafting unfortunately! Well anyway, first let me show you one of the dolls that I made like years ago! The Japanese quilled doll. With a Red color with Yellow flowers Kimono and a matching umbrella !

Got some other stuff to post too! Will do that when I have time! Cheers!

Blondie... Paper Dolls

Hi folks...after a long time I'm here..sorry for not writing anything..eventhough I have loads to be posted.... this is one of them, I did this actually last year... but with all the hype with work and studies i got suppper busy! anyway just catching a breath and posting this....

So these are basically made from paper... yup Quilled paper dolls.. one of my proud creations...why I say this is becuase I figured it out to do this myself... I saw some pictures of paper dolls and looking at them, just guessed this is how this and that is done .. and viola! there's a doll!! I didn't use any tutorial.. guess when you get used to quilling..you just sense these stuff!! LOL!

anyway ..so I'm calling her my beautiful blondie.... cos she has blonde hair...so there you go.....! A 99% paper doll.... the rest is just glue....!! :)) cheers!

3D quilled Cake

3D quilling!! Hmm I was never into it until I tried building a house out of paper! I don’t know why I did it but I’m glad I did it coz now I’m interested in doing more!!! So I wanted to quill a cake!! I see that lot of quillers make 3D cakes, so I thought why not! So here I am making a cake! Or is it baking?!! 

Anyway, I had to cut wider strips by hand, which was the tiring part coz now use my paper shredder to cut strips of 0.3mm. I used folded roses to decorate the cake, and think of this as icing on the cake!! 

Well I did more than quilling a cake actually , I made some pretty dolls too.. but that’sgoing to be the next post. I completed these actually in december 2012, but with the christmas and new year i've been a lot busy lately....

PS: I'm sorry about the lousy photos :((( 

Heart filled with tight rolls - RED

A heart entirely made of tight rolls!! So this is my new trend now… this started when I did a quilled typography wall hanger “MOM”, I used tight rolls in various colors and in combos as well. So now I’m interested in using them for my cards as well! Not a great news for my hands though… making tight rolls is very tiring… my left hand was complaining a lot actually!! Wish we had a machine to roll the strips.. it’s just rolling …rolling ..rolling and *sigh… So once again I’m wandering out of track! So let’s get back to the design at hand!

Did this for a friend and a regular customer of chamicrafts actually! I made it for their anniversary. No wordings on the front of the card, just a big heart with tight rolls in red shades color combo. The background is actually a piece of a wrapping paper, which I love! Inside has a pop up of 5 hearts, coz it’s the 5^th anniversary, and the card is blank as usual.. hoping to do this heart again soon..

Happy new year 2013

Happy New Year everyone!! Sorry I’m a bit late with my wishes and I haven’t posted anything since Christmas. I have lots of new stuff to be posted. But I have so busy for the past couple of weeks and I didn’t have time to post them here. I got a large last minute order for new year greetings cards and I was trying to complete them on time. And now I’m full time working, also with the work concerning my degree…. Phew! It’s a handful!! So I will post them all as I get time. The time I’ve got for doing cards is limited now. So please order your cards at least 3 weeks before. I will be only available in weekends for card making.

So this is the largest order I have ever received, so far ! Luckily it wasn’t such a big quantity and we decided to keep the design to a very simple idea as there wasn’t much time to do it. I usually don’t take last minute orders, but it was for a cousin. The design is from the customer and the color theme requested was red-white-black only. Their company logo K needed to be quilled… and here it is!! I made 15 of it, with two entirely different Ks, but each K is unique from other. Envelopes are made with bubble wraps, in white with their logo. Inside message was printed with the wordings he requested. So that’s it!

Catch you later!
