Morning Tea

This is great idea for Mothers Day! Morning Tea by Cibele Glazer, this card uses a Recipes for Break Time Beverages card topper. Cibele describes the techniques she employed to make this elegant card:

'Using the Spellbinders Marvelous Squares dies, I cut the image and mat and attached it to a card base along with a gold Wilton Doily. I edged all the cardstock with gold ink. I used a gold paint pen to go around the edges of the cup for some added shine.'

We'll be back with even more ideas using Card Toppers soon. Be sure to take a look at our Facebook page for any ideas you may have missed. 

How've You Bean?

Hello! Jeanne here today.

Today I have a card using the  Recipes for Break Time Beverages Toppers:

I used Toffee Ultra Fine Flower Soft and Polar White Flower Soft on the cookies and the swirl on the coffee.

Remember Dad

That's right, Dad's day is just around the corner!

Both of the cards I am going to share with you use the recipe toppers from the Recipes for Family package. This one works so well for Dad. If you have ever used a Topper before, you will know that they come completely colored and ready to use. And, they don't just have to be used on cards either, they work on any project. Of course, they are perfect for adding some Flower Soft too.

I added a fluffy border of Delphinium Blue Flower Soft around the frame and then some accents on the rug.

This topper is in the same package and it is all cute and pink, perfect for a Sister. The card base is new Gemstone cardstock by Core'dinations. I embossed part of it with a Cuttlebug embossing folder for added interest.

I cut out the teddy bear sitting in the chair and then made a border out of the word portion. Flower Soft was added to her dress and the little bow in her hair.

Remember that you can always watch Flower Soft TV for some great examples of using Flower Soft and the tips and techniques that make it work better.

Sweet Treat Package

Happy Monday! If you're celebrating Victoria Day today and are enjoying a long weekend, I hope it's been safe and fun! I'm excited to be bringing you some of my projects each Monday here on the Flower Soft Blog!




I created this gift set with two of the images in the Recipes for Friendship Kit. I made the small Pizza Box, for which I found the Tutorial on Splitcoaststampers. This was quick and easy as well. I used a Nestabilitie to cut an octagonal shape around my image and sponged some soft sky and celery ink around the image. I used some Ultrafine Flower soft in Strawberry to add some dotted dimension to the bag and hair bows and some UF Toffee for the bear. A Little Shamrock to the grass..... and Viola! That was done in a flash!







I wanted to continue to experiment with my new colours and didn't want to repeat the same pattern, so for creative part of the challenge on my card I used some Shamrock and Ultrafine Raspberry Fizz to create the little bushes! In addition, I added some Lilac to her little hair bows!




I had lots of fun machine stitching the Red border.........hehe.........so much fun that I stitched and Stitched and stitched to create a shabby border. I'm lovin' that Polka dotted Ribbon too! I'm sure you've seen it here before and I need to order some more as I've just about used it all up!


Have a WONDERFUL day!
