IQCG DT Reveal

Dear Quillers,

I would like to personally thank everyone who took your personal time to apply for our DT call.

Here  we have the new team of IQCG from Feb-July 2019.


My returning DTs




 

I am Geetanjali Agrawal, a Commerce Graduate based in Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, specializing in paper art. As a kid, I always had a passion to draw and paint.I have never had professional training for Quilling. Internet tutorials and my own will to make something unique made me what I am today. I still remember when I made my first card. I couldn’t even get quilling strips, yet I managed by cutting colored sheets of paper into thin strips.In the first few months, I focused on quilling jewelry and other small trinkets but then, my sister gave me an idea to try my hand on paintings. The first painting I made received a lot of accolades, which gave me the confidence to open my studio. After that, there was no stopping me.

I am Ishani, an Air Force Officer by profession and a mom to a two year old son. We live in a small place near Jamnagar, Gujarat. My crafting journey started around three years back with quilling, when a friend gifted me a quilling set. Since then, crafting has become meditation for me. I am more of a card maker and love to incorporate the humble paper strips on my cards. I love trying new techniques but I bend towards Clean and Simple style. I believe quilling is an evolving art and the versatility of paper strips give us a lot of options to explore.

My name is Cathy Sanders. I live in South Africa and have been quilling for over 17 years. I took a break from quilling in 2010 as scrapbooking was more my craft of choice, but picked it up again two years ago and now the bug has bitten again.

This is Gouri,a stay-at-home Mum to 2 amazing boys.
Being 7 years as a full time IT professional and a mum , did not leave me enough time to sit back and think about what else could I be doing if I was not crunching the keyboard and attending occasional late meetings.

After migrating to Australia with my husband and my son, I turned into full time home maker and a stay-at-home mum. Things were not easy at first and it was difficult getting used to be without work. 

I had dabbled in quilling before and with the all the time I had now, I started doing it more often. One thing led to another and I got interested in card  making until recently I became extremely passionate about mixed media and art journaling. My craft area is my happiest and relaxing place. 

I am extremely honored to be  a part of the IQCG Design team yet again. Thanks Shylaa for the opportunity.
