Quilled Bookmarks for Swap

This is a long due post. I had made 22 bookmarks for National Quilling Swap arranged by Gopi Shah. 22 people participated in the first ever quilling swap held in India and we had to make bookmarks equal to the number of participants.

This is the entire bunch. I have made all in same design but different colors and the type of papers used are also very different. Do have a look at the individual pics below. I have grouped them by colors.

I have used papers from magazines for these red ones

 For these I have recycled an old greeting card...

 For these I used wrapping paper on top..

 For these I have trimmed borders from journals and punched them

 For the blue ones I used paper scraps and punched them

 Here again I have used all assorted papers, some are from old cards, some from magazines and sone is from Itsy Bitsy sticker backing.

 Here also I have all assorted papers.

Glittery card

Hi there! Just logged in to post my last card for the year. It is especially made for Pie Lane's first challenge. I had been thinking about it and finally managed to make something glittery.

Before decribing the card, I want to wish all of my dear blogger buddies a very Happy & Creative New Year ahead!! I had many fabulous moments on the blogland this year: got so many awards, prizes, RAKs, made lotta friends and learnt a lot from each one of you. Thanks a lot for all the love and sharing! God bless you all.

For this card I cut out the colored papers from an old greeting card lying with me. The sentiment is a digi. The quilled flower was in my stash waiting to be used. The butterfly and the flourish is from Pie Lane. And as you can see I have generously used lots of glitter from Hobby Ideas.

 I also made 2 matching bookmarks from the left over pieces and one more card, that I'll be sharing later.
