Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That’s its balance. — Osho #quilling #withsadnesscomeshappiness #balanceoflife #treesandroots #sadness #happiness #lifethoughts #quilled #letters #s #quillingfun
Yesterday was so unbelievably beautiful. After such a crazy couple of weeks, it was almost therapeutic to go for a walk (haven’t done that in so long 🙈) and float in the pool. The sun was out and not a cloud in the sky…. #blessed #sunnyfordays #thankful #appreciationpost #beachday #funinthesun #beachart #relaxed #quilling #paperart
Happy Friday my friends….🌼🌺🌸 What is there not to love about paper? You can bend and shape it to make just about anything. It’s therapeutic to soften the strip and curl it around the needle tool and see it unfurl like a flower bud opening to the sun…. The shadows and playfulness of the light on its edge never ceases to astound me. What drives your passion for what you do?

One of my favorite 50th Anniversary wedding monograms I’ve made. I use all kinds of golds and creams with various textures and shines in these… #quillingfun #50thanniversary #50thweddinganniversary #weddinganniversarygift #quilling #quilled #paperart #golden #goldenanniversary
And here’s the completed 11”x14” piece… Created for a sweet little ones woodland themed room in coral, gray, and white. Sweet dreams!
Remember the little owl in the tree? I reworked her a bit and used her in a newer project. The branch and owl are in varied heights in the page to add depth. If the paper looks different, I experimented a bit to add more depth and color. ☺️ #QuillingFun #quilledpaperart #quillingartist
