Isn't it gorgeous? It is so flowing and whimsical, perfect for quilling. The only issue I had with it is all the black. It is hard to quill with black. Since the paper stands up it casts a small shadow. If you have black paper with the shadow in tight coils, you can't really see the coils. So I decided to flip the colors. I chose a grey background, put the tree as white, and alternated between white, grey, and black hearts.
As with my other tree, I started with just the basic outlines.
The hearts were not glued down. They were just there for reference. Also I have not glued at this point. I like to lay out the papers first to see if I need any adjustments
This is when I started filling in branches. I glued down the basic outline, and then laid out the fillers.
Once I had all the branches complete and glued, I started adding the hearts.
I used some waves to fill in the trunk and voila:
One gorgeous recreated logo! It really was fun having the freedom to change certain items and I can not be happier with how this came out.
