Ni Hao!!
I am just saying 'hello' in Chinese..:P..Well, if you are living in a country its good to know their language too..:P lol..well, I am not learning chinese, I just didn't want to start my post with a boring hello..and also, since this was the first craft project I did after coming to Singapore, I thought of giving it a little dramatic start..:D
So, here I would like to present a Quilled cross I made for our lovely landlady. Ever since I have reached Singapore, she had been a second mother to me. She welcomed me in her home with 'Aarti and sweets' and keeps gifting me something or the other every now and then. My hubby and me are like son and daughter-in-law to her. She is a devoted christian and I couldn't think of anything else to thank her for everything she did for both of us.
I have used 5mm pre-cut quilling strips for making this project. Since it was my first project in Singapore, I used the material I got from India and luckily I got a pack of these blue quilling strips which were perfect for this project.
The frame I have used is from IKEA. I found a matching frame :D, inserted an A-4 size sheet in it and stuck the cross on it.
Somehow the cross fitted the design perfectly and left me enough space to write a sentiment.
She just loved the gift and it is now displayed in their living room :) This is how the final piece looked once finished.
(Disclaimer- Please note that I am NOT the actual designer of this cross, I found an image on Google, loved the concept and remade it using my own size dimensions. The whole credit for the design goes to the actual designer - Sorry couldn't locate the designer. If you happen to be or know the designer of this beautiful cross then kindly contact me, I'll add the due credits to this post.)
Hope you like it.
