The bloom shop

Here is my latest version of an earlier florist shop. It makes me feel really sad to see these miniature flower pots being exposed to dust & dirt. I've got a shadow box frame from my last visit to IKEA and thought of moving these pots inside the shadow box. The existing shop doesn't fit. So, I had to make another one out of card stock and arrange these flowers inside it. With the help of my younger son, we named this as "The bloom shop".. I'm so glad that my miniatures are safe and dust free.

Yellow quilling flowers..on the way..

These days, I've been going for an evening walk with my neighbors. Our colony has got lot of trees which are blooming to the fullest. Especially, during the dusk, they look more beautiful & I just can't express the beauty in words. I couldn't stop myself from quilling these little yellow flowers.. The journey has just begun.. Dear Mother Nature, as always, you continue to inspire me :)

Green bunch

Work is driving me crazy these days and I couldn't do any quilling these days. After a long gap, when I opened my quilling box, my younger son came to me and insisted that he will help me in sorting out them.. We were casually discussing on what to make next and came with a thought of making green flowers.. Yes...green flowers...Why is that flowers are always made non-green? Why do I never use green srips for flowers? Let me try once and here is what I've finally made.

Flowers were made pretty easily. Now, we were stumbled up on what to use for leaves? I've tried 3other colors before I concluded on a dark green shade.
