SUPPLIES & TOOLS:

  • BZ Quilling Tool
  • BZ Quilling Paper Pack Silver
  • BZ Quilling Paper Pack Pastel
  • BZ Quilling Paper Pack Bright
  • BZ Quilling Paper Pack Black & White
  • Orange cardstock
  • White cardstock
  • Pencil
  • Clear liquid glue
  • Square frame
  • Sewing machine & white thread (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Insert orange cardstock into frame as background.

  2. Cut white cardstock to fit the frame, leaving 1/4" of the orange exposed around all sides. If desired, use a sewing machine to stitch around outer edges.
  3. Use a pencil to trace a basic letter shape (we used a K) in the center of the white cardstock piece.

  4. Using clear liquid glue, adhere silver Quilling Paper strips to the traced letter (should be glued with the paper standing on the edges of the strips). Continue adding silver strips until the outline of the monogram is complete.

  5. Using the Quilling Stylus from the Quilling Tool, create swirls by curling both ends of white and yellow Quilling Paper strips. Adhere swirls inside and outside of the monogram as desired.

  6. Using the Quilling Stylus, create flowers, stems and leaves. Adhere inside the monogram.

  7. Place finished quilled monogram piece inside the frame.
