Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Foamiran Flowers

 Hi Everybody,

During the clean up of the craft room I came across a lot of foamiran in  many colours that I have not used up.

And so I thought I would make some flowers for my playtime cards and incorporate them with the other bits and pieces I have found on my desktop.

These two cards are the results of my find and for these I have used a very pale pink foam to die cut the flowers.

I have then inked over the edges of each petal with Worn Lipstick and used my heat tool to curl them into shape.


The leaves are also cut from foamiran and  inked with dark green. I have used any dies that I came across first in my stash. 

For the top card I have added an oval die cut to the panel that cut out a lovely bird and that has been added to an inked background panel. 

The flowers and leaves have been arranged around the oval and the panel then dotted with pearls.

I lightly rubbed gilding wax over the flowers and the bird

For this next card I have used an aperture flourish die and that has also been added to an inked panel

The flowers are arranged at the top right of the card with the leaves trailing down the card.

The sentiment is from an old CMM set and I have dotted this panel with diamante. 

I am quite pleased with both cards.

Bye For Now ...

  2. Good Morning Christina. I am so sorry for my absence the last two days. After my call on Saturday I have been in agony with a broken rib and pain is unbelievable . It is starting to ease up a little now.. But it's not right.
    I have looked back and as always your cards are beautiful. But I never had much luck with the foamiron. I tried and tried but for me it just didn't work. So I have up and stuck with what I know. . Thankyou Christina.. Sending hugs ๐Ÿค—and best wishes to everyone. Please stay safe and well ๐Ÿ™. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
