Another Christmas Card or Winter Birthday!!!

Hi everyone I hope you had a Merry Christmas with all of your family and friends. I have another Christmas card for you. It could be used for a Birthday card for all the winter Birthdays out there. I just love these little guys and enjoy using the toppers from Flower Soft. I used Polar White, Orange Sunshine Yellow, Black, Delphinium Blue Flower Soft Colors. Also Highlighted the stars with my Clear Sakura Pen. Added Silver Peel Offs. Placed it on Navy Paper and White Cardstock then distressed the edges of the card in Navy Ink from Stampin Up. The toppers make putting a card together fast and easy and I just Love the results. I plan on trying to get Christmas Cards made each month for next year so I will have them ready. This will be one of them I make.

Christmas Door!

Here is another Christmas Card I have made using Flower Soft and the Vintage Christmas Door Topper. I first used Sakura Pens to highlight this card. I used the Stardust Clear and Golden Stardust for the arch in the window, Red Stardust for the Bow on Wreath. Then I used Polar White for all the snow, Vintage Christmas on the Garland and Wreath. Christmas Green was used on the two trees, then dusted with Polar White. I place Red and Green Bling on the Trees, Garland, and Wreath. I also used Gingerbread Glitter Art on the Wreath and Garland. Peel Offs in Gold lined the card to finish it off. This card was a lot of fun to make.

Flower Soft Snow Globe

It's beginning to look like Christmas. Well in this card there is snow but not here in the south. I do miss the White Christmas's. So I made a Flower Soft Globe Card with snow in it. First I took the the topper and added foam dots to it for dimmension and then add the flower soft colors of sunshine yellow,black,orange, and baby blue. Added Polar White to make it a shaker card. I glued all of this into the Globe Card that Flower Soft has and then I Stamped in Blue Snowflakes all over the card used the silver peel offs around the globe added 2 snowflake Brads and a sentiment Let It Snow and have a cute card that gives me my snow I miss from back home. If you haven't made any of these shaker cards you should check out Flower Softs web site and grab some and make them they are so fun!!

Fruits of Love Flower Soft Mini

Hi everyone I have been so busy this week working on a new mini album for Christmas using the New Graphic 45 Christmas Emporium paper. So I dedcided to put my Fruits of Love Flower Soft Mini on my Blog I taught this book for a class at Charleston Scrapbooking and Karla has a few more kits for sale now at Scrap, Stamp, Ink in Summerville, SC. I enjoyed using the Ultra Fine Flower Soft Colors and also used the Cricut for the title and all the fruit. The Cartridge Perserves which I had on loan from Amanda Phillips a fantastic designer in her own right. You should check out her Blog Oldenough2beakid.blogspot.com Thanks again Amanda! Now back to this mini it was so much fun to make I used Glossy Accents on all of the fruit to make it shine. This book made me hungry the whole time I was making it. It would be great for recipes or pictures of you eating your Grandma's favorite Apple Pie or Muffins. I have found I can use Flower Soft on just about anything and so can you.
