I was searching for some inspiration and found your lovely design. Unfortunately, I have been completely distracted by your fireworks. They are awesome and your description of the process is greatly appreciated. I have already sketched out a St. Louis skyline with fireworks and hope to start quilling tomorrow. Thank you so much for the inspiration and I hope to share a picture soon.

However, I used thicker 80lb black paper that I cut using my machine for the outline because I found it kept the curve as I shaped better than the standard thin quilling strips.

I bought mine at an art supply store. <br /><br />The paper edge for Mickey was 80 lb cover weight - much thicker than normal quilling paper. Since the curves are so open and wide for outlining, it was OK to use such heavy card stock - or else it buckles with tight curves. <br /><br />To make the edge follow my cut out I gently curled it, placed against the tracing, then kept curling until it followed the tracing. When I went to glue, I did it slowly, making sure the edge placed as closely as possible. Don't forget - I had to hide some of the white edges with a black marker.<br /><br />Take lots of breaks in between sections. Get off your chair and swing your arms around and stop being hunched over. This took over 20 hours so pace yourself and don't forget to enjoy quilling!<br /><br />CeceliaPaper Zenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07196789247385275477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428734466580440271.post-41603475480425909432012-04-22T23:28:01.007-07:002012-04-22T23:28:01.007-07:00This is so beautiful.

I have my image traced, cut out and I'm ready to start outlining. I'm a little nervous to begin! What kind of glue do you use for quilling? And how did you get the paper to stay right at the edge of your cut out? Any advice you might have would be amazing.Penny Ladynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428734466580440271.post-91199432402864980162012-04-03T08:08:04.460-07:002012-04-03T08:08:04.460-07:00Hi Seylani, thanks so much!
