Flower Soft Card Making

I recently used Flower Soft to add texture and dimension to my French café cards. I enjoyed that so much that I bought the Flower Soft Floral 

Card Making Starter Kit. The kit includes 3 jars of flower soft, card topper and other printed sheets to cut, project booklet and assorted other items. I loved cutting each of the lieces to make the 3D cards and enhancing them using the flower soft. The 3D foam pads, create great dimensional images. The Flower Soft Tip Sheet and website: www.Flower-soft.com gives great inspirational ideas!

 

French Café Cards

A couple of months ago, I noticed Sheena Douglass’ French Collection on the Crafterscompanion.blogspot.com. I fell in love with the two sets “A Little Bit Scenic,” the French 50’s Café and Provence. There are so many combinations you can make using these in creating vintage scenes.

The owner of the local scrapbook store, Gingham Buttons 2 here in Palm Coast, Florida, ordered the 2 set bundle for me. The picture above is my take of a card I saw online using these lovely stamps! I gave it to a cousin as a gift and she plans to frame it!

I had a great time designing cards using a varied color scheme. I used, Stazon jet black to stamp my images and colored them with Tombow watercolor markers and blended the colors with my water brush.

 After showing them off back at the store, I discovered I could further embellish these cards using Flower-Soft. This product gives my cards some texture and dimension. Check this out at www.Flower-Soft.com. To give a 3D effect I place some of my fussy cut images on pop dots.
