Tutorial for quilled flowers

Here's some flowers I made the other day: 

I call them paper Asters.

To make them you will need:

double sided patterned paper 

scissors 

bonefolder (optional) 

quilling tool (optional) 

glue 

Cut a strip of paper 12 inch long and about 1- 1 1/2 inch wide.

Fold it in half lengthwise.

Cut a thin fringe along the paper, but leave a tiny part uncut.

Put the strip in the quilling tool

and start rolling up. Put some dots of glue along the edge.

 This is what you will have now:

Start from the outside and bend down the fringe.

And it's all done!

If you want full flowers like these, use a 12 inch paper strip.

For these, I used two  6" strips in two different widths.

               

You can also make them flatter by using a shorter strip and then add a brad or a paper coil in the middle.

     

I got the inspiration from this picture I found browsing around on Ebay. 

Cool huh?

Good luck and let me know how it goes:)
