Quilling mandala

Hello Friends,

This is the second Quilling Mandala I am doing. You must have seen my previous one. In which I had made 8 ganeshas all around. In this mandala , I have made a floral design with leaves and stems.
I have used a 2 mm MDF board ( 12 " by 12 " ) dimension.
You have to draw the design with a pencil before starting your quilling work.The complete design is made using 3 mm quilling strips of different colours.

Let me show you in detail:

Step 1 :

• For the center I have made a tight coil ( yellow colour ) using 2 strips.
• The next layer has tight coils using double colour ( green and purple ). Make 7 such coils.
• The third layer has marquise shapes around the inner circle. I have used yellow and orange colour combination. Refer to the picture.

Step 2 :

• Make comb flower shapes to fill the mandala shape.
• I have used blue , pink and green colours in an alternate fashion.
• Make two such shapes and stick it opposite to each other.

Step 5 :
