Instructions:
Create Heart 1:
Glue the doily to the card base, folding a small bit over the edge of the card.
-
Take a longer strip of red quilling paper.
-
Find the center of the paper and pinch it to create the point or "V" of the heart.
-
Begin quilling from one end toward the middle.
-
Once you reach the middle, do the same from the other side.
-
Put two dabs of glue onto the card and adhere the two rounded portions of the heart to the card.
-
Once it is adhered the way that you like, adhere the point to the card with a tiny dot of glue.
Create Heart 2:
Roll a purple or pink piece into a circle and let it settle into a smallish circle. Adhere the end.
-
Pinch one end to create the "V" or point of the heart.
-
Now gently push into the center from the opposite end and create the top of the heart.
-
Adhere this heart (and as many other hearts as you want) to the card.
