Homyachok Challenge #3 – Gifts of Summer
A new quilling challenge started on Homyachok challenge blog: Gifts of Summer!
You can make a postcard, a quilling picture or anything else that shows what Summer is all about: fruits, berries, mushrooms, wild flowers, etc.
This is what I have prepared as a guest designer for this month:
I started by making a few field flowers and I chose poppies for their red bright color.
I always wanted to quill some wheat and now I had the chance, hence the three corn ears.
This arrangement would not be complete without some fruits, so I decided to make the ones which I like most: strawberries! Delicious!
I used 2mm strips of paper hand-cut from 160g/sm and 120g/sm A4 sheets of paper. For the background I used a black cardboard which makes all my flowers and leaves pop-out. The aproximate size of this quilled painting is 16cm * 20cm.
Make sure to check the blog to see some amazing creations from the other DT members. You’ll find a cute hamster there!
Hope you will take part in this challenge! Happy Quilling and many creative ideas!
I also want to enter my project to the following challenge: Make it Monday #61
