"It often takes me awhile to come up with an idea or design. Once I have something in mind, and have pulled out all my supplies, I make several cards. It can take several hours to make one card, and not much longer to make several. Occasionally I pull out just paints, markers, pencils, etc., and just make background papers!"

You'll be off to the races when you take on the challenge of this Beautiful Black Beauty Quilling Art. Unlike a lot of paper quilling, this paper horse project doesn't use a lot of coiling or shapes. If you look closely, you will see it's mostly strategically-placed paper quilling strips filling in an outline of a horse. That's what gives this horse it's beautiful texture. It also lifts the design off the page in the most intriguing way. You can frame it in a short shadowbox or cut it out and display in on a wall or table.
