Recycled Card



                                I made this  simple Christmas card 
                         


                                  Once in three months we receive news letter 
from RBC .(DAILY BREAD ).I saved this picture in my box and
 now used it in this card .
The maroon card base is from my daughters old 
Exercise note book .by the end of term kids bring home 
bundle of them and the back and cover pages are always 
neat and clean and thick as well .i couldn't take a picture of 
the maroon ,it was cut and sleeping in my craft box for a year. 
                                
lavender one here is the other one i am gonna use in my  next craft ..
                       

                                       


     i 've used peel off stickers and borders and quilled holly
    and ivy.both the green and red papers are from magazines.

QUILLED PHOTO FRAME



                                                                                 
                                                                                         

                        Made this simple Quilled frame yesterday .I like to use 
Hessian /jute in most of my projects .This jute piece is the one i have 
saved  for more than 6 years .My beloved dad used  a big gunny bag 
to pack a wet grinder we bought while returning to UK .
and its of sentimental value for me .as my dad is no more .
i have been using every piece  of it in my crafts .


                                                                                   
 using piece of iron on fabric to hessian would make it easy 
 to add it to cards or stitch so that it remains stiff .
 these birds were drawn and cut on a piece of 
 iron on fabric and stuck to hessian .and the Bible verse was 
 done with ,simple running stitch with embroidery thread.
 (i am not good with needle craft !!!!!! excuse me )
                                                                                       


Cheers !!!!! Have a great Day .

Quilled Squirrels

                            I made this quilled picture yesterday .(started it few days ago !!!)I really enjoyed making this because except the background hand made paper all the materials are recycled and reused .and i am in search of a second hand box frame (only then i could say its a recycled quilled art )
just kidding !!!. i couldn't find the right size frame for this .in a hurry to post this.


                                                                                    
                                                                                     
                                                                                     


                                 The squirrels are made from these
                                                                                    
we were left with several unused business reply brown envelopes .
i drew the out line and filled it with several marquiseand tear drop shapes .
The fence as i have mentioned HERE is made with 
primark paper bags handle cut into fence shape, colored 
with maroon brush markers .
the grass ,i cut very thin strips from old file dividers and 
 colored them . red and pink punched flowers are from old magazine 
 papers .even the beads i used for the flowers are from my daughters 
old beaded bracelet.
i slightly shaded the squirrels with fresh chalk .


                                          Thanks for your lovely comments
                        i am going to take a break .
                        (means .... no posts and comments )
                        God willing shall be back after 
                         September .
               until then you guys keep smiling and crafting.
                with lots of love 
                 Angelin.

Birthday card with hand made tissue paper flower


This is the very simple Birthday card ,i made 
yesterday .


                                                                          


                                it took just 15 minutes to finish the card ,
                                i did not use any backing paper ,as  it would ruin 
                               the polka dot card base. 
                               the stickers are from my favorite pepper and friends 
                               collection.and this is my second quilled butterfly .
                               the first one i made was done by shaping eccentric 
                              coils .within 15 mts it was really challenging.
                              and the paper flower was made by seeing Lauras 
                              video instructions .but i did not use the same 
                              materials.


                               i   used paper tissue (from chinese restaurant )


                                                                          


                                 and it was little tricky to crumble this
                                 kind of paper but i enjoyed trying it.
                                 i used revive starch instead of gimmer mist.
                           
                                 and in the butterfly the body and feelers 
                                 are made with old brown envelope cut into 
                                 thin strips.RECYCLED!!!!!.


                                Thanks a lot for encouraging me with your
                                 precious comments.


                                Have a lovely sunny Week end.
                                 (its always rainy weekends here )
                 Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!
