Quilling it Thursdays-Embellished Box-Envelopes

Hello, hello!!! Happy Thursday to all!
I've been truly busy these past weeks.  We finally began our Basement renovations and I am so excited to say that I will have an actual craft space down there.  No more dungeon looking room.  I will share pics as soon as everything is ready.  For today's project I want to show you how I embellished two of My Quilling Nest's  Box-Envelopes.  If you have purchased these and have made projects using them, I would love to see what you have made.  You can link them on this post, at the bottom on Mr. Linky.


Materials used on this one:
Michael's Recollections Textured paper for the Flower
Flower- Stampin Up Sizzix Fun Flowers Die
Stampin Up Seam Binding
Stampin Up Chocolate Chip stamp pad for the distressing around the Box-Envelope
Martha Stewart Micro Beads for the center of the flower 

Materials used on this one:
Michael's Recollections Textured paper
Stampin Up Circle Punch for the Rolled Roses
My Quilling Nest's Quilling Tool to roll the roses

Tim Holtz Stamp pad to distress around Box-Envelope

If you would like to purchase a pack of the Box-Envelopes  you can do so HERE.
If you have made projects using these envelopes you can link up your projects on the bottom of this post.  I would love to see what you have made.

Quilled hugs to all and will see you again next time.

Rolled Flower Using My Creative Time's Dies

Happy Tuesday!!
A few days ago I was experimenting making larger flowers using the rolled flower dies from My Creative Time, and I loved the outcome.  The flowers I made are larger than the actual die cut.  Ms. Emma asked me to make a tutorial and as I promised her, here it is.  I have also added Mr. Linky to the bottom of this post, I would love to see your rolled flowers!!!  So here its the tutorial, let me know what you think!
Materials Used:
My Creative Time 'Rolled Flowers Die' (you can purchase it HERE)
My Quilling Nest's 'Quilling Tool' (you can purchase it HERE)
Any Type of Paper.  I used the Recollections textured paper.
Aileen's Tacky Glue


If you give these a try, I would love to see them.  Link up your project below.
Happy Crafting!
Quilled Hugs,
Linda K.
