I made marquise shapes and then squished them into this C shape. After my A fiasco of seeing my pencil lines for the letter, I am now using a white pencil to draw the shape before I begin filling it up.

I found this old dictionary on the free table at the library. I decided for April I will focus on the #AtoZChallenge. So, I shredded several A pages from the dictionary to fill in this A.

People often ask about the use of book pages in quilling. Unless the page is a solid color, it typically doesn’t work well.
For this book (published in 1979), it offers an aged color (no bright white pages here). If I carry through with the A to Z theme, this will give me an opportunity to try different ways to showcase the words.
