Who this list is for
This paper quilling card craft list is for 9-year-olds ready to roll narrow paper strips into simple coils, teardrops, and spirals. It keeps the project focused on a handmade card rather than complicated quilling tools.
How to use this list
Pick a blank folded cardstock card and sketch a light design with pencils and erasers. Roll paper quilling strips in assorted colors with the plastic quilling tool, then shape the coils on a quilling shape template board. Use toothpicks for glue application with washable tacky glue, placing finished shapes on the card over wax paper sheets as a protected work surface. Add details with fine-tip black markers and pair the card with a cardstock envelope.
Common mistakes
Do not squeeze every coil into the same tight shape; this craft uses coils, teardrops, and spirals for variety. Apply washable tacky glue with toothpicks in small amounts so it does not spread across the blank folded cardstock card. Avoid writing with fine-tip black markers before the quilled design is glued and dry. Keep the wax paper sheets under the work to prevent loose strips from sticking to the table.
What is on this list

Washable tacky glue, toothpicks, a quilling shape template board, pencils, erasers, fine-tip black markers, child-safe scissors, and wax paper sheets support the project. Cross off what you already own.
When you are done
Let the card dry flat before placing it in the cardstock envelope. Put unused quilling strips back by color, wipe excess glue from the tool and template board, and save the wax paper sheet if it remains clean.
