Quilled Shagun Envelopes

Hello my lovely readers

Welcome back,
I received an order for shagun envelopes for a wedding occasion. She requested them in different designs and in 2 colors for base envelope.

I used yellow and red as the base color for the envelopes. The sheet used was a designer patterned embossing sheet. Created 5 designs consisting of floral pattern and Ganesha.
Ganesha is considered auspicious for a good start to anything new.
These envelopes are used in Indian Weddings to give currency notes as gift for various wedding rituals.


Design Set 1

Both the sets had three similar sort of designs consisting of Ganesha, single flower and double flower in coordinating colors.



Design Set 2


The pattern for Ganesha is really simple and will explain the tutorial in the next blog separately.
Here my focus is on the floral envelopes. One can use these floral designs for any occasion gifting.
All the quilling has been done using 3mm quilling strips.


Design 1

This design is a heart shaped petal flower with leaves and multi strip scroll. The flower is adorned with a big flatback pearl. All the elements are in dual color shade. The flower is created with pink-blue, leaves in 2 shades of green.


Design 2

This design is a three petal flower with leaves and multi scroll. Flower is quilled using red and cream strips. The three petal is made using one marquise and two crescent shapes and wrapped with a strip together.


Design 3

This design has two fringed flowers made from 10mm strips with a tight centre coil. The big flower is a Malaysian flower design in Magenta+Purple color combination.
This Malaysian flower design was invented by Solehah Muhammad and here is her detailed tutorial for the same. This design also has the leaves and scrolls.



Design 4

This is a simple petal shaped flower design made using blue+yellow color combination. Leaves and Scrolls complete the design and flatback pearl adorn the flower.

This was my first order for the quilling envelopes customized for an occasion. They were designed considering the requirements of client.

Dream Catcher Part 2

Image
Hello and welcome back with my second post of my previous project. The dream-catcher is finally done and I love the way it turned up. Here is the link to my first part of this project. Dream-catcher  I was not hoping to use strips for the strings of dreamcatcher but turned out I ended up with one. While I was working on the inside strings, I thought of giving it a try since I had a lot of time now. Owing to the lockdown days I was gradually able to finish up the project with strips only. It was a tedious work since using the cut strips was a level up for me. I used my roses from the flower collection this time. They seemed pretty well to go with the color theme. This may not be a perfect work but it came out better than I imagined when I started. Roses View This took a long time than I expected but it was worth every moment. Working with 3mm quilling strips for entire project and making roses with 10mm strips. I refer to the tutorial for making roses

Hello to all the lovely readers. Its my second project in Lockdown days and it really turned out out well for me. A hopeful dream to come true soon that let me take to another adventure soon. Eagerly waiting for the situation worldwide to be better soon so we can all live normal lives. I have somehow started liking my routine in the past few days though.

Quilling Fridge Magnets

Image
Hello and welcome back to my blog guys. This lockdown is simply making me share my new as well as older projects and connect with you all. Fridge Magnets with note holder clip I made these magnets last year for my Diwali exhibition. How I tested my magnet for display!😅 I was not planning for these to be a part of my diwali collection but then I found these stash of my tight coils I make in my free time. Yes I made tight coils and fringed flowers in my leisure time! So the flowers were an easy task and I just needed a base. Old collection of my tight coils Made these magnets base with my jute rope collection. And I loved the raw look they gave to my magnets. The tight coils I had were just pinched to make a teardrop shape and made a 5 petal flower for the magnets. I used the stick on pearls for the center of flowers and added just two tight coils of green color pinched in leaf shape. Hot glue gun came to the rescue for sticking the flower patch onto the jute
