Free Pattern: 'A Bunch of Love' Card

This pattern is developed by us for our adult quilling class. We don't mind you using it or sharing it on the internet, but we would really appreciate it if you could mention or link back to quillpaper.blogspot.com. Thanks!

From left to right: Heart 1, 3, 4 and 2.


Prepare a standard A2 size card (preferably a white cardstock).
Use 1/8 inch standard width paper strips. You may change the colours according to your preference.
 

Make:                                                                                                                                     
Two -  3” Cream Teardrops for Heart 1                                
Two -  3” Red Teardrops for Heart 2                                     
Two -  5” Dark Red Teardrops for Heart 3
Two - 6” Pink Teardrops for Heart 4
Two - 5” Yellow Arrows for Bow
One – 1 ½ ” Yellow Marquise for centre of Bow

Measure:
One of each 3” and 4” green strips for leaves
Two - 4” green strips for stems of Heart 1 & 2
Two – 6” green strips for stems of Heart 3 & 4
Two – 2” yellow strips for bow                      


Assemble:
1. Assemble and glue 2 teardrops of same size together to form each hearts.
2. For stems, fold each green strips to half. Apply glue between the folded strips along the entire length except for the open end (leave about 0.5cm to form Y). Leave to dry.
3. Glue the shorter stems to Heart 1 & 2, the longer stems to Heart 3 & 4.
4. Make four open scrolls using the 3” & 4” green strips, and both 2” yellow strips.
5. Arrange the hearts-stems, also the green scrolls on card to form a bouquet. Glue down at desired place.
6. Arrange the yellow arrows & yellow scrolls to form a bow near the end of the stems and glue down.
7. Glue the yellow marquise on the stems to form centre of bow.
