Quilled logo


  This is a logo of a Silk saree company.  I was asked to Quill the logo to be framed and gifted. 
I used a maroon colour slightly thick strips for the outline and a dark red colour to fill the inside. Although I used the same red colour through out the use of different technique has resulted in different texture.

Quilled daddy card



        This is my most recent work , The word Daddy in paper quilling. It took me way more time than I had planned for the project. The filling in the word was the most time consuming . I had to cut little pieces of white paper strips and stuck them horizontally. The entire card is made using 220 gsm card stock hand cut paper strips. I painted a metallic bronze colour to the black strips and the centres of the flowers.
         Altogether I liked how the card turned out.

         Thanks for stopping by , Have a great day

Quilled bride



I love how this dress turned out . I took a free image on the internet for reference , decided to make a complete white gown for the bride . Wish I could have used a background which would make the dress pop out , but this is a small part of a big work and all the elements is mounted on the same background paper. I don't seem to have as much time as I used to so progress is very slow. I have to thank dear Daphne for being so patient.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.
