Heart Balloons: Handmade Quilled Love Greeting Card
"Saying it out loud is the hard part. Writing it down is not."
Every coil placed by hand
Ships flat in a rigid box
Replaced if damaged
Some things are easier written than said. Heart Balloons is a handmade quilled love greeting card built as five coil-filled hearts in red, pink, and peach, rising on black paper strings and gathered at the base with a red bow. "Bundle of Love!" is printed across the top in black script, so it carries Valentine's Day, an anniversary, or an ordinary Tuesday just as well.

Specs
The card in detail.
Story
The design and the moment.
01
The design
The fill is a chained run, not loose circles dropped into a shape. Each coil is rolled, pinched, and set against the one before it, so the line stays continuous and the gaps stay even across a curve. Outlines are single strips creased at the point. The small heart at the knot is cut, not rolled.
02
The moment
The wish is printed, so the card arrives already saying something, and the balloons keep it from reading as a grand gesture when you do not want one. Send it for an anniversary, a Valentine's morning, or a week when someone needed it and did not ask.

Primary specialist on this card
Every Vonderly card is built by 2 to 3 specialists working in sequence. The artisan below led the work on this one.
I do the coils and most of the leaves on our cards. The coils have to be the same size all the way through. If one is wrong, you can see it on the finished card. The leaves I shape on a comb, that is how they get their curve. This part of the work I am fastest at, because I have done it the longest.

Does the printed "Bundle of Love!" tie this card to Valentine's Day?
What is paper quilling?
Paper quilling is the art of rolling, shaping and arranging narrow strips of paper to create raised designs. On Vonderly cards, each visible quilled element is shaped and placed by hand rather than printed.
How long does it take to make a Vonderly card?
A Vonderly card typically takes around 90 minutes of handwork. Different parts may pass through specialist hands for shaping, detailing and assembly before the finished card is checked and packed.
What comes with each card?
Each card measures 5 × 5 inches, is blank inside for your own message, and comes with a 5.25 × 5.25-inch kraft envelope.
What if my card arrives damaged?
We replace it at no cost, and you keep the original. Email hello@vonderly.com within 30 days of delivery with a photo, and we ship a replacement or issue a refund. There is nothing to send back.
