New "Gift Cards" that are EXTRA ordinary!

QUILLING CARD COMPANY


The art of quilling has been around for centuries. Originating in ancient Egypt, quilling has persevered through time, most notably making its mark throughout the eastern world. During the Renaissance, nuns and monks would roll gold-gilded paper to adorn religious objects, mimicking costly gold filigree. In later years, quilling continued to be practiced throughout Europe as it caught on as a leisurely activity for affluent women.
All of the cards begin as a preliminary drawing. From there, the artist decides which shapes will make up and form the final design. Although it may be difficult to see, try to look at the swirls and rolls of the papers that are used to make the designs for 
QUILLING CARD - cards. It's very impressive!
   
There are so many selections.  All of them have empty interiors and some have a brief message on the front of the card.  This is a sure way to make a gift look even more special than ever!
