Postcard "lilac miracle": Quilling postcard of lilac, master class

Hand-made quilling is very versatile andinteresting in its execution. Therefore, various postcards, decorative items and just things are made using the schemes that are used within the technology. Today we will try to make our own postcard using the quilling technique, using one of the popular lilac flowers - the symbol of "May-June" for each year. Therefore, if you want to make your own postcard for a birthday gift or a themed summer holiday, you can't think of a better idea. For the postcard, you will need special materials for working with the postcard: in particular, quilling and scrapbooking paper in lilac tones. It is advisable to choose a classic tone for the postcard, light lilac and dark lilac are ideally combined with each other.

For work we need:

• Quilling paper, 3 millimeters wide and 5 millimeters (lilac, purple, white)
• Scrapbooking paper of light lilac and dark lilac color
• Corrugated paper and tools
• Paper Tweezers
• Quilting awl
• Scissors for processing
• PVA-adhesive
• Ruler
• Scissors, curly

Workpiece

First, you need to form a blankfuture postcard. You can take a ready-made one or make it yourself. Take a sheet of scrapbooking, with which you make a rectangle and then fold it in half. After that, continue working. Scrapbooking paper is thick, so it is perfect for development.

Petal

Next, we work on elements of the quilling technique.In our case, these are flowers. To do this, take quilling paper and make strips. Pass the strips through the corrugating tools. Next, twist the wavy strips using a pen or a round marker. They should be of a fairly large diameter. After that, you get petals for the future flower product. Using the ends of the twisted strip, glue them together using PVA. We get a circle with a hole inside. We need to make 5-6 petals of this shape. It all depends on how large our product will be.

Filling the petal

The petal needs to be filled.To do this, we need to use decorative elements. Curl the paper strips using a quilling tool. You can make 3 turns. Lower the tool using a strip by 1-2 centimeters, also make 3 turns in the same direction and after that, repeat these steps until you form the entire strip in a similar form. Next, cut the strip into two parts. The element must be folded randomly to fill the void inside the petals. No need to glue anything, the curls will also hold inside the product. Next, you need to fill all the petals in a similar way. Next, glue the petals together to get a full flower. In this case, you must avoid using too much glue. Otherwise, the paper will be wet, and the petals will fall apart. One flower will not be enough, so it is better to make several of these flowers with your own hands and place them on a postcard. That's it, your blank is done!
