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!

Spring Fever

Remember when I was telling you about the never-ending winter that was here, in Cluj? Well, it seems like, finally, the spring decided to come, so we enjoy our warmer and sunnier days, although yesterday and today it rained a little. So, being in the spirit of rebirth, I'll show you a "fresh" card today.

As you can see, I used a couple of different items and techniques for this card, including painting, punching, quilling, pattern paper and some ribbon. I start to realize more and more that quilling is beautiful both in its "pure state" but also when mixed with other crafts, images etc.
So, what do you think? Do they all blend together well? I'll be waiting for your comments in the section below.

But,
Until next time,
Behave and Quill...and Experiment!

When Painting Meets Quilling

Last week I went to a local hobby shop which is actually more about painting, colouring, as it mostly has painting paper, all kind of oil colours, acrylics and watercolors. What I bought from there were some acrylic colours and 2 brushes, as I am more and more into stamping and shaping techniques (but stamps here are such a rare thing...:( ). I tried to combine some painted shapes made with stencils I had previously bought a couple of days before with vivid yellow flowers and this is what it came of it:

I am also becoming a bigger fan of bows everyday and I am planning to buy a lot more of them, so be prepared to see a lot of more "ribbon-y" cards. I hope you'll like my card and that it will enlighten your day a little!
Until next time,
Behave And Quill!
