You're Sweet. Candy Sweet.

Tonight I share with you a delicious treat. No, it's not chocolate, muffin and not even sherbet, for it to be said. It's sweeter. And cuter :) At least so I think.
I've made this baby-blue - candy-pink combo almost by accident, but when I put them aside and said the names of the colors I realized how well they would work together.

And, of course, what would a nice treat like this be without a little sugary sparkle? So I sprinkled as much sparkling accents as I could...

As far as I know, the also sweet recipient of this card hasn't received it yet, but I was promised to be told I would get the feed-back as soon as possible. Until then, I'll be expecting yours, along with your comments and opinions! So, what do you think?

Bye for now,
Until next time,
Behave And Quill!

Lil' Gothic Inspiration

Last week I was asked to create a card in which at least one of the predominant color would be black. Not as unusual as you would expect from a card, but anyway a first-timer for me. As for the friend who asked me doing this, I think she was happy with it. What about you? What do you think? :)

I like the color combo and how all the violet shades blend together with the ultramarin narrow ribbon and bow. I think I'll keep in mind this pattern for future gothic-inspired cards.

Until next time,

Little Floral Fantasy

It's very late ( or very early - depending on how you want to see the watch :)) ), but I didn't want to go to sleep without posting this card for you. As I already told you, I started to love ribbons more and more and I also like the contrasting colors layering. I am also so comfortable making these flowers, different sizes and shapes, but somehow all being able to blend it together. I feel that soon I'll want to quill something different, but until then...let's see this:)

Also, as you can see, I experimented a little with the idea of making a watermark on all of my cards, with the initials of the blog: "Happy Quilling". Any thoughts about it?
I'll wait for your opinions and also suggestions for what should I quill further. I have some ideas of my own, but I would always love to hear fresh ideas from you!
But, as you know by now,
Until next time,
Behave And Quill!

Royal Purple

I decided to share a quick post with you before I go to sleep today, so here it is :) I made this card for one of my professors in college, which was given by one of my colleagues and, as far as I know, she liked it very much.
It was the first time I used such a technique, inspired by the layering Gina K. is doing in her videos on the Stamp TV Youtube Channel - which by the way, I love so so so much!!!!!!

Unfortunately, as I have no dies or Cuttlebug (...yet :D) I had to keep it this simple, without risking to make it look clumsy or rough and tumble. I like the colours and the fake-embossed card stock - which I will show you in a future post how it's made and I like how the flower is positioned asymetric.
I am planning to make a couple more cards like this the next week, so stay in touch!
Until next time,
Behave And Quill!
