Quilled Christmas Card

Yesterday I attended a seasonal quilling class with the lovely Jill and came away with lots of ideas for Christmas cards.  The card we made was this one which includes some lovely quilled pinecones which I'd not seen made before.  To my shame I've not actually done any quilling since I went to a class with Jill this time last year, consequently I'm not too happy with my poinsettia flower which to me looks a bit spindly so I might make some better ones for another project.  We were also shown a great Christmas rose flower which I made when I got home before I forgot how it was done so you might be seeing that at some point. I enjoy going to workshops and meeting other like minded people and I also treated myself to lunch which meant no cooking yesterday.

    What a beautiful card Val. It looks like a lot of work, but the end results are stunning. Not something I have done. Hugs Rita xxx

    Have kept all my quilling equipment - funny you should post about it as I've been thinking heaps about getting back to it. Looks like you had great fun & I love the candle.

    Gorgeous Val - love all the different elements you've achieved. Must admit to not having the patience for quilling but love seeing the finished effect.
