Welcoming spring-DT Subha Vivek

Hello Quillers,

A warm welcome to you as well the SPRING season.   Everybody loves the spring.  And spring reminds us of flowers, fresh grass, butterflies and rain.  This month challenge theme is WELCOMING SPRING.  

I chose to quill flowers and arrange them in a vase for my inspiration post.   I took a canvas drew an image of a vase and stencilled a damask design on it.  Using a sponge, dabbed shades of blue and purple as a background for my flowers. Rest of the canvas I coloured  black using the sponging technique.

Now for the quilling  part,  I used various techniques to quill sunflower, tulips, pansy,hydrangea, daisy etc.  Arranged all the flowers above my vase and added quilled leaves, foliage and cut out leaves.

 

Hope this gives you an idea to start with.  Anyone can participate in the challenge. Make sure you follow the rules and hashtag IQCG 56. Your project should have quilling as a major component.

Welcoming Spring

Hello dear Quillers,

I don't know how many would agree with this, but spring is the most beautiful times of the year. Open blue sky, blossoming flowers, life coming alive everywhere. It always reminds me of the fact that good and beautiful  things are always coming to us.

At IQCG we are welcoming spring with the monthly challenge.

I have welcomed my spring with a cute little 'Hello' in a frame. I have quilled few colourful blossomed flowers against the blue open sky background. The heart chipboard is just to welcome spring with love :-)

Winner will receive this amazing prize from Shylaa.

Take your quilling supplies and join us in welcoming this beautiful spring with your wonderful creations.

Thank You!!!
