From cooking to quilling....

After the pat on my shoulder for my first post...here I come with another one..

Before I came across quilling...I was kind of crazy about cooking..  I was following different food blogs.. Knowing about many mouth watering dishes... trying them at home after having a long day at work. All I do was sauteing.... frying... cooking....baking.... Trust me, those were the days my dear husband loved the most :-) But this hobby definitely added few extra inches to our waist lines. Then came my mom with a timely warning... Thanks to moms... They are the best check points any one of us can ever have:-)...I had to give cooking a rest (of course we do enjoy occasional extra calories)....That is when I came across quilling and no way I will give it a rest at any cost:-)

Yummy chocolate cake I made.

By this time, I have tried basic shapes of quilling and it's time to get hands on with some new techniques... Here I have tried husking to make a farewell card to one of my friends at work.... she absolutely loved it(In return I got great feedback from my colleagues. That's the best gift any one can ask for)...

I was trying to make sunflower for the card but it was wayyyy tooooooo big to fit in the card. So I have decided to add color to my television(yeah.. the colors in the TV were not enough for me;-)). It is sitting beautifully on the corner and it definitely catches everyone's eye... Happy me....

Okay.... I know you are all having good rest over the weekend...well...carry on.....and we will catch up next week.

My first ever blog post...huraayyyy..:) :)

Hello everyone..

After so much pushing from friends and family...finally I have dared to create a new blog to include you all in my Quilling journey......its been wonderful so far and I am sure we all are going to enjoy the ride and have great fun :) :)

It all started around two years ago...I was just googling around and fortunately I came across these wonderful creations all with paper and till then I din't know there is an art named Quilling ...Thats the moment I fell in love with quilling and paper of course:) I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw so many wonderful and lovely creations by many artistic people..I dint know we can make so much with paper.....I couldn't resist myself from trying the art of Quilling and I am telling you.. Thats the best thing that has happened ...

There are so many wonderful bloggers who have guided me and any small and stupid doubt(I get most of them ;-)) ...you can refer to their blogs and voila....you get an answer in their posts....thanks to those gurus(who don't know they have a student :)).

Ok...Enough said and read(I can see a grin on your face ;-))...Here are some of my works in the initial days of my quilling journey...

This one I made as a card for my brother's wedding....

This one for a close one's birth day :)

Please don't mind the poor picture quality... now I have learnt that you need good natural light to get your works nicely photographed :) :)

Thats all for now..Hope you like my attempts... Please leave a comment :) :)
