Paper Quilling Scrolls

Hello Friends,

This is Trupti from Trupti's Craft again. In last post I gave the information about basic shapes, today I will give you information about some basic scrolls.   

 

These are some basic scrolls. Now let's see how to make these scrolls in detail.

Loose Scroll - Make a loose coil then leave it gently without gluing.

Closed Heart Scroll - Fold a strip in the half.  Roll both ends toward the center and release it. Glue both rolled parts.

Open Heat Scroll - Fold a strip in the half.  Roll both ends toward the center and release it.

Uneven S Scroll - Roll two third of the strip and release. Reverse the strip and roll remaining strip to form uneven S.

S Scroll – Roll one end of the strip toward the center and roll other end in opposite direction towards the center.

Musical Note – Fold a strip in half and roll the both ends together.

Same Side Scroll – Fold a strip in half. Roll each end towards the center tightly and release it.

If you want you can glue two strips together and make a new scroll.

V Scroll – Fold a strip in half.  Roll each end from outward side opposite the fold.

If you want you can glue the bottom part of V and make a new scroll.

Uneven V Scroll – Fold a strip so that each side is a different length. Roll each end from outward side opposite the fold.

If you want you can glue the bottom part of V and make a new scroll.

C Scroll – Roll both ends inward slightly and release.

Uneven C Scroll – Roll two third of the strip from one end and release.  Roll the remaining strip and release.

Double Loose Scroll – Roll two strips tightly to form a coil and release. 

Multi Strips Scroll - Take desired number of strips. Glue one end of strips together. Let it dry. Roll strips together and release it. Now pull the end of each strip to form a scroll and glue it.

You can roll the end of this scroll in opposite direction and make a new scroll.

These are just few scrolls. You can make your own scrolls by rolling it different ways. 

I hope this information is helpful for you. Keep visiting for more information.

Thanks.

Paper Quilling Basic Shapes

Hello friends,

This is Trupti from Trupti's Craft. In the previous post my friend Janani gave you a brief information about paper quilling. Today I am going to tell you about some basic shapes of paper quilling.

These are the basic shapes made with the help of quilling niddle, slotted tool. If you do not have a slotted tool you can use a tooth pick. Snip the end of the tooth pick for about 0.5 cm, your slotted tool is ready.

Now let's see how to make each shape in detail .

Tight Coil: Insert a tip of paper strip in to the slot of slotted tool and roll it tightly. Glue the end of paper strip and remove the coil from the tool.

Loose Coil : Make a tight coil and release it gently before gluing. You can use circle sizer or quilling board to make desire size coils. Then glue the end of paper strip. Loose coil is the basic shape. By pinching loose coil in different places you can make lot of different shapes.

Ring Coil: Wrap a paper strip around any circular object like pen, handle of quilling tool etc. Glue the loose end and remove it. By pinching this ring coil you can also make different shapes.

Tear drop:  Make a loose coil and pinch one side to make tear drop.

Curved Teardrop: Make a tear drop and bend pinched end . 

Elongated Teardrop - Make a loose coil. Move the center to one corner and pinch opposite side to make to make entire shape long.

 Marquise: Make a loose coil and pinch both side.

Marquise With Single Curved End : Make a marquise and bend one end.

 Marquise With Double Curved Ends: Make a marquise and bend both ends in opposite directions.

Angled Marquise: Make a marquise and push one end toward the center forming angles.

Half Moon: Make a loose coil. Using both hands make a half moon.

 Arrow Head: Make a loose coil. Pinch one end pointed.  Press in the round part with your needle or slotted tool.

Bunny Ear: Make a loose coil. Use an awl or small pen and push one side of coil toward the center to forma bunny ear.

Lily of The Valley: Make a bunny ear and bend both ends outward.

Heart:  Make a loose coil. Pinch one side to make a tear drop.  Press in the rounded part with toothpick or your finger nail.

Half Circle:  Make a loose coil. Pinch one side to make a tear drop.  Pinch second time near to first pinch.

Triangle:  Make a loose coil. Pinch one side to make a tear drop.  Pinch second time near to first pinch to make half circle.  Then pinch the rounded part.

Square:  Make a loose coil. Pinch both ends to make a marquise. Pinch off rounded shapes to make square.

Rectangle:  Make a loose coil. Pinch both ends to make a marquise. Slightly rotate the shape and push pointed end towards enter

Holly Leaf : Make a loose coil. Pinch both ends to make a marquise. Pinch off new small points on each side of existing points. Make last two points. So totally you have 6 points.

Now let's talk about how to make some Eccentric Rolls/Coils.

Eccentric Loose Coil: Make a loose coil and place it in a quilling board. Using a pin move a center to one side and stick it to the board. Glue the center in place and let it dry completely.

Eccentric Tear Drop: Make an eccentric loose coil and pinch the other end.

Eccentric Long Tear Drop: Make an eccentric loose coil. Press the entire circle and use your fingers to make entire shape long.

Eccentric Marquise: Make an eccentric loose coil. Position the glued center to one side and pinch both sides to make points.

These are just few shapes. You can make your own shapes too, just make loose coil or ring coil and pinch it. While pinching coil make sure that you will pinch near glued part of strip so that it will look glue. One more tip is use very less glue. 

If you have any questions then do not hesitate to ask in the comment section.

That's it for today. Stay tuned for next post where I am going to write about scrolls.
