Thanks Nicola wink

Wow that’s gorgeous. Yummy pink too my favourite wink I’ve been having a dig about this morning and I’ve found loads of my first cards from about four or five years ago. They have brought back so many memories I know I still have some more somewhere I must carry on searching.

I’ve posted some of my old tea bag ones at the bottom of this thread.

Also I’ve just started another thread off here if you want to add any other old cards you have lurking about.

They do look complicated Monica but they are really simple to do. Have ago there is a there is a video tutorial on how to make them.They do look complicated Monica but they are really simple to do. Have ago there is a video tutorial .here.Have fun wink

PS If you don’t have a quilling tool and want to try them you can use a cocktail stick instead. It is a little harder to start off than with a quilling tool but you get the same effect. Sometimes in quilling when I want a really tight centre I use a cocktail stick instead, they are really handy

I don’t use quilling that often, but when I do I always enjoy the process. My favourites are butterflies. Here is an ATC I made using them.

Wow - what beautiful cards ladies! I’ve never really tried quilling, but the feature in this month’s mag has made me think that perhaps I ought to give it a try. The roses look soo beautiful!

Wow ickle pickle and Nicola J they are fab! i tryed quilling 2 days ago, first atempt wasn’t bad, i did a flower and found it hard getting all the petals the same size, but i did find it relaxing, and will keep doing it. i think quilling gives such a lovely effect.
