Making a Quilled Card: A card begins with printed artwork of what the card's design will be. Using a quilling pen, the artisan threads strips of kishu paper (a high-quality, Japanese paper) through the tool and rolls it to create a tight coil. Each shape that makes up a card begins as a tight coil. From there, the coil is relaxed and molded with fingers or tweezers until the desired shape is attained. The quilled shape is then glued down onto the card, and the process is repeated shape by shape, until the artisan has layered on the entirety of the final design. In total, each card takes one hour to be brought to life!
