Newspaper – More than just NEWS!

I love working with newspaper as a material to use for craft, hence I made these roses using glossy newspaper. 

I made 2 types of roses - tight and loose. 

Tight Roses are made in 3 sizes - Small, Smaller and Smallest. I pasted them together to make a pyramid. 

The loose roses were stuck together with a small bud of rose in the center. 

I cut my newspaper strips for the roses in a circular way (like a mosquito coil), instead of using straight strips. To cut these, I used textured craft scissors, this gave the roses a natural and soft look.

Each rose is made in one piece with the circular strip, there are no petals.

Oh so tiny...

This is my first 3D quilling project..

Its less than an inch in height and diameter.

It has 7 flowers & 6 leaves of varied type:
-2 pink carnations
-1 pink rose
-2 yellow bell flowers
-1 yellow big flower(its my imagination, not a real flower)
-6 green leaves with different swirls

The flowers are mounted on brown rubber coated copper wire(available in hardware stores).
I first stuck the leaves on the inner wall of the pot and then I placed the flowers between the leaves. Finally the finished pot with flowers and leaves was stuck on the base.

 I thoroughly enjoyed making this, my love affair with Quilling has begun!!!
