Hello everyone,
I'm back again to show you another special order card. This customer wanted a large card for her parents golden wedding anniversary. She originally asked for an A4 card as she wanted room for lots of people to sign it, but I couldn't figure out how to do that and I felt that any quilling would look a bit lost on a card that size. So I suggested that maybe a 3 panel, concertina style card might be suitable, especially if it was a bit bigger than I'd normally make. She asked for the card to incorporate some gold, including gold ribbon, and burgundy. This is what I came up with:
The hearts were also the customer's idea. Each panel of the card measures 8" x 8". Here is a close up of each panel:
I added blank panels on the reverse so there was plenty of room for everyone to sign.

Here is a close up of the quilling. I don't think it shows up particularly well but the flowers are made with gold edged papers.

I am hoping the customer is pleased with it - I'm not sure it will have arrived yet as it was going to Australia.
I'm very excited about this weekend as I will be attending another workshop with the wonderful quiller, Diane Boden. So hopefully I'll have some lovely creations to showcase on here next week.
