    Happy Spring to you and hello April !

    I've linked a quick YouTube Short (30sec) from Miriam's Quilling. All you need to know is the simple shape. Loose roll (coil), pinch and shape into a teardrop and make two. 

    The leaves are big loose rolls. I use different size medicine bottle caps-lids as templates for big rolls. Roll, then drop it in a cap, after it has released remove with tweezers and glue. Shape into long skinny leaves. Even just one of these tulips would be awesome on a card or gift tag. Remember, make odd numbers of elements for balance.

Making Spring Tulips - YTube Short

    You can make any size for any reason with any width of paper.

    This tulip is on my craft room wall. I used 1" (25mm) wide, 12" long construction paper strips. I often use a paper crimper on all the strips before rolling, gluing and shaping. There are only seven pieces to this 15" (38.1 cm) quilled tulip.      

  

    I haven't posted this link in a while. Real Simple magazine online is very inspiring, even if you only scroll through and look at the pictures.😄 I hope you will take a look and find something entertaining or helpful or both. It will renew each month.

    Enjoy the magic of April 🌞 and stay safe.
