Quilling

At a recent team retreat, one of my fellow Close To My Heart Independent Consultants, Mary Collins, gave a demonstration on quilling. I had always been interested in trying it but had never been brave enough to actually complete anything. Well, I was inspired to give it a try since Mary was sitting next to me & could help. Here's a card I made using the techniques she demonstrated.

I'm sure people who know quilling wouldn't think it looks that great but I like the shabby look it has...even the messy stamping with a new, not completely seasoned stamp. There are no mistakes...just opportunities for embellishing & distressing.
