After writing about putting quilling on to decoupage newsprint in
yesterday's post, I remembered a card design template that I created on the computer a couple of years ago featuring a simple text box with 'birthday-related' words in it. At the time I thought that it might make an interesting background for some quilling, and so I've dusted off the idea once again to create this card for my friend's birthday.
Selected words in the text box are highlighted in colour to brighten up the whole effect, and I've added a bunch of quilled balloons to get the celebrations under way.
This idea could easily be adapted to suit any occasion ... just add quilling! Here's the finished card:
It's interesting how black goes well with bright colors! Great photo, as well!

ReplyDeletePhilippa,
ReplyDeleteI loved it!
that's a really great idea. I love the text box. It reminds me of those word clouds that you can make online.
