I quilled these flowers a bit differently though it is based on husking, since I wanted to make them look real.The yellow part of the petal is husked but I have pinched the top so it looks like a V like the grass in the tree landscape. for the blue part I did not husk as I needed some width at the bottom as well so it could be stuck on top of the yellow, so I made it like in this tutorial which is here, but I did not encircle them. Just stuck them at the bottom so it expands out like a V but still had width .
I Used the same zig zag fold technique for the white, but did not pinch to top so as to get loops. I did try the pinched zig zag for the purple flower, but I feel the blue and white one looks better.
The small flowers are very basic but I made them with stems and arranged like a flower arrangement. I find the Japanese, who do really fantastic quilling, tend to do it this way. However the leaves are of three different types.The tutorial for leaf sprig next to the pansy is here.
For the ladybird, I used a 3d cap, which I managed to shape because I allowed it to unwind about a mm. I usually allow a teeny unwind before gluing, which makes pushing out the shape easier.
