quilling style




      I made this card for my dear friend Lakshmi Rani, A bunch of flowers always makes a good gift.
      This particular style of quilling is that of Cecelia Louie's . I first saw her work in all things paper , and ever since wanted to try it out. Initially I found it difficult but later on I got the hang of it but, with a nagging suspicion that there must be an easier way.
      I am a huge admirer of Cecelia's work, her work looks simple but so effective. For this card I have entirely used quilling paper. For me quilling paper is something precious, and so I hardly use it :). That's another plus with this style of quilling not much paper get used.
