Olai (Letter)

Hey girls,

         Just a quick post..This is a card(donno if I can call so) I made on my cousin's request..  It is gonna have birthday messages on it. He wanted it in this style - like olai..(in Tamil which means letter used by Kings to send messages to somebody) and some quilling.(Mix of Indian and western!!huh)

     I used bigshopper handle for the top hold, and attached bells at the end.Did some quilling,distressing and added some laces.Did some cone lining to add some richness.Just scrap a few words abt this attempt..can I do a few more like old styles?

    Pramadam!!! Really looks like the 'Olai' of the olden days. Really like the tassels on the bottom of the olai.
