First encounter...

I will start the blog with a little story on how it started and stuffy stuff and we are here today...but not yet today so It all started a loong time ago, last friday when I first stumbled on quilling while searching on the mighty and powerful Pinterest for Christmas and Halloween  yourself decorations (Yey!). After you stumble on something you like you of course Google and Youtube it :D so thats what I did.

All the flowers and stuff made with this technique where so beautiful and did not look so hard so I got exited like a puppy and wanted to try it.

My boyfriend supported me so the journey began....

1. Went to Jumbo.. did not find only paper so everything on standby till monday
2. Went to a hobby shop. Did not had Beginner's set in quilling so got piece by piece.

I got:

a. quilling needle
b. circle patterns + triangle + squar patterns
c. tweeters
d. comb


First try where flowers. Let's just say it's harder then it looks. 


Second try will be today. Wish me luck.

I keep repeating my self today. 3. a pattern-notebook-template-thing - this is a math small notebook in which I doodle what I want to be my next project. I was inspired today so I have my next 5 projects doodled ( can't wait to do them!) I bored you enough so let's start talki...

Of course I am busy and of course I will start other stuff that maybe I should not, so I decided to start a old challenge that I did last year. Some of the drawings I will compare them with the old ones to se if I god better on drawing or worst. So... the challenge is here:  http://sketchbooknation.com/sketchbook-challenge/   (this is not mine - Free publicity :) ) It is fun because if you don't know hot to do the challenge you have a video that shows you step by step, or just images.
