Paper Roses

Did I tell you that I'm on a paper art frenzy these days. Even though I like making punch flowers , these days I'm into totally handmade roses. No punches, dyes or cutters. Plain old paper and scissors! This is the first of the roses :

I've used regular cardstock. The next one , I thought should be a bit different . Here it is :

Let me know what you think ? Which one do you ,like better. I'm open to suggestions. Please feel free you share your views.

Quilled flowers

I've been quilling away randomly...no projects as yet but yes a few elements are getting ready. So hopefully I'll have some finished projects to show soon enough. These a re afew flowers I made for a very dear friend Susan Lee, who is an amazing artist herself. Do drop in at her blog and be charmed with her lovely art work.
And now for the flowers :

and finally , all together ...

Crochet flowers and appliques

Just a sneak peak .....This is what I've been busy with ......making lots of flowers and appliques in crochet. I've just taken pictures of a few of these .wouldn't these look just too cute om scrapbooks and altered boxes, cards, etc? I hope to display them at Arte tomorrow.

Quilling ...flowers, birds on frame
This is a frame made for daughter of a friend. It's her favorite colours. I hope her little girl likes it.

I've been quilling and trying out different techniques as well. The flower here is very popular among the Malaysian quillers. I loved it and tried my hand on it too. It's not bad ... but I guess there is room for improvement.

Another thing I've been enjoying is 3d quilling. I have a few things to done and ready to be photographed. Will post them here real soon.

Appliques Frenzy !
It was a craze.....making appliques, most of it was flowers. And now it's time for flowers so here are mine:









Appliques are my favourites because they can be as versatile as you like. You can use them to pretty up almost anything! I used so many to make these little girl clips.







It was fun working with these little flowers and having instant gratification projects.
