Hummingbird Trio - Quilling Card

Don't just send a card, send art! These cards truly make an impressive gift and can be framed and displayed as well. The art of quilling has been around since ancient Egyptian times. Creating patterns using small strips of paper that are coiled and shape has taken many different forms throughout the years becoming a popular pastime from European ladies to nuns and monks during the Renaissance. Quilling eventually found its way to America with the pilgrims and until today, is still practiced all around the world. Bird feathers (quill) was once used to coil strips of paper and thus the art form of 'Quilling' was born!  These cards are all made in Vietnam by artists who are skilled in creating three dimensional designs on greeting cards.
