Beehive Flower | Jan. 27, 2019 | Text weight strips | Beehive technique on flower petals and to fill up the heart.

I tried to just add a flower in my heart shape. The shape is a single strip folded in half, glued at the top, and then glued to to my 4×6 mat.

I wasn’t happy, so I took red strips and did the beehive technique on them. They were added to the heart shape.


Then, I put the petals on top of the heart shape. I’m trying not to overthink this 365-day creative challenge. Of course, there are many days ahead to try a heart in a different way.

Rolled Roses | Jan. 25, 2019 | Circles cut and rolled into flowers

I made these with a pattern from the Silhouette Store and cut them with my Silhouette.

I added extra roses to this sheet of cardstock.

Funny Coils | Jan. 24, 2019 | 1/8-inch quilling paper strips
I found these while cleaning up my work area. In a few cases, two coils joined for a fuller shape.
