Postcard “Sheep”

If you want to make a unique, original postcard with your own hands, then this master class will help with this. This card will be suitable for Valentine's Day, Birthday, and any other holiday. A funny and unusual sheep, which is performed using technology quilling, will delight the recipient of such a gift and leave a memory for many years.
To make such a postcard you will need to prepare:
1. A sheet of red cardboard A4;
2. White and black cardboard (you can use thick colored paper);
3. Double-sided tape;
4. Quilling paper in red, white, black;
5. Scissors for small parts, a tool (you can take a toothpick) for quilling, tweezers;
6. Simple pencil, ruler.
Making the base for the postcard. To do this, carefully bend the A4 red cardboard in half.
We take black cardboard or thick paper and cut out a rectangle measuring 10x14 cm, which we first draw using a simple pencil and ruler. We attach squares of double-sided foam tape to the back side.

Next, we will use white quilling paper 20 cm long. We form a roll from it with a quilling tool (if you don’t have one, you can use a simple toothpick).

Unravel the resulting roll and secure the tip with glue. You will need to complete 7 such elements.

We form one roll from black quilling paper and give it the shape of a triangle. From two pieces of black quilling paper we make two more small elements (they will serve as the ears of the sheep), giving them an oval shape.
Then we take red quilling paper 12-15 cm long and bend it in half.

When all the parts are ready, we begin the process of attaching them to the base of the postcard.
First we attach the white rolls in the shape of a “flower”. One roll in the center and six white rolls around.
