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.

Day1 - Drawing Challenge

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. Alexandra stop blabing!. .. Day one challenge was a bee: On the left you have the original and the first try last year and on the right the new and improve version  * the first challenge was draw on a smaller draw-book then this ears challenge I will not criticize me, that's your job!

Day 12 - Quilling adventure - Why can't I work after templates

Hello! How are you guys? Hope you like what I do here, if not please tell me. Today I wanted to have a relaxing day so I found in a color book a lovely design: Beautiful right? So I started by doing a 3D circle (YEY!!!) Continued with another circle, I want to do a creative buble.  I ended up with these. The look as the template right? Not perfect but acceptable. ...... ..... ..... A couple of ours later: So everything went away from me again. I got distracted and the project was to complicated so hearts make everything better. Tomorrow is weekend and my goal will be to keep a design. Wish me luck! p.s No glue monster today :)

Day 11 - Quilling adventure - Elephant

So today I wanted to do another key ring thing but I did a... Elephant Started with a flower and then I decided to do a elephant so started doing the ears  - learn how to use the comb to make this lovely shape. The rest came to me naturally.  For putting the glue I used a old brush. I was better. I know the elephant doesn't look the best but I put a lot of effort into it. Maybe I will redo it when I become abetter at quilling
