Heya all,
I was never confident of trying Beehive technique as such before for one project..I used to try making swirls with some leftover strips to get a knack of it..but this is my first project using this technique as such...Of course all thanks to Susan and Pritesh for inventing and promoting this technique...:) :)
Well, I wanted to make a card by incorporating quilling technique at the same time make it for the 'first' anniversary event...so I decided on making a big number '1' as the main motif on the card and simply added some patterned paper, ribbon and sentiment to it.
The beehive swirls I have pasted here are the ones I made during my practice and hence the assortment of colors and neatness in swirls.. :P
I tried to incorporate my friend's favorite color as the main backdrop and hence the purple color background, but plain purple was looking very odd, so to spice up the whole thing, I added a piece of gingham red pattern paper..
I am not sure how it has come out...yet to hear from my friend as she hasn't received it so far...
But please do let me know your comments/ views about the card...it helps me to improve :)
Loads of love..
