Quilling

[bradley method mom]

have you heard of it?

I am looking for new valentine ideas and came across this Quilling thing...sounds fun

I LOVE quilling! My mom introduced it to me when I was young and I've picked it up again over the last year or so. I use it on my gift tags, cards, and scrapbooks.

I have a bunch of the quilling paper, but it's not necessary. You can just cut out small strips of any scrap paper you have laying around. I don't use a quilling tool either (though, I have one). I find it easier to just roll it with my fingers.

Most of what I make, I give away, but here are a few of the first cards I made after picking it back up:
