Photo Frame with quilled flowers

Dear Friends, I am back again with another recycling and quilling project. A photo frame !!!

Recently, my company hosted an event and they have ordered for a whole lot of invitation cards. But unfortuntately one of the higher ups did not like the design and the whole batch had to be discarded. The waste master in me jumped in and requested the admin guys to give me some of them . They were puzzled at my request...but then obliged to share a few of them...I was over whelmed and immediately put them to good use...It is very sturdy and can hold embellishments well !! I have used the same card as a base for my previous two posts also !!

After


You must have seen many quillers making similar versions of this design, but the major inspiration for my work comes from Aditya Khaitan's photo cards.

Since it is my first attempt at making a frame I blindly followed the tutorials shared by fellow bloggers Sonia and Neha.

Do let me know what you feel about my work

PS: If you know of any other source that you feel has a clear resemblance to my work. Do let me know ,I will update this post. I don't want to be termed as unethical.

Thanks,
Swathi
