Paisley Time

Paisley is a term in English for what in India is called the mango motif. It is extremely popular and found in a lot of traditional Indian weaves. 

I tried my hand at doing the same motif in quilling.

Supplies used are quilling paper and glue. The edges of the card have been inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Mowed Lawn. Edges of some of the quilling has been inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Peacock Feathers.


I am linking this card to Ranganjali October Challenge as the theme there is 'Traditional'.

Autumn Harvest

This was made in October 2016 for a dear friend, without whose love, support, and encouragement, I would have given up quilling a long time ago!

This is one of my favourites!

A big thanks to Ayani Art for the tutorial on paper roses.
