Learn how to Quill the Letter S and How to Make Stars on Edge Learn how to outline the Letter S using on edge quilling techniques. This time I’m quilling onto black card stock to make yellow stars shine in a starry night. These simple stars can be used in so many quilling projects, like someone’s birthday, a celebration, or even for wishing someone good luck. There are 3 sizes of stars. Just lay your strip on top of the template, score along the dotted lines, and cut to the indicated length.  Fold into zig zags. Put a tiny stream of glue down, and kiss one of the ends into the glue.

The gnome is layered, so his beard and moustache really look dimensional! Of course, a single mushroom can get lonely, so I gave it a little friend. It's not big enough to put a gift card inside, but it's so sweet to see a mini-me on a desk, and it can hold items like paper clips. It's reduced 75% of the larger mushroom, but of course, when you have a cutter, you can ask it to make anything as small as you like. What's a gift without a heartfelt message? When they peek under the roof, they'll see your writing there. It's...
