Noel


I'm still having fun with my new Flower Soft product. I read on the Flower Soft website that you could write with it too. Of course I had to give this a try. Now I don't think you necessarily have to write words with it. You can also use it for borders and flourishes.

Since I have terrible handwriting, I decided to use my Stampabilities NOEL script stamp and stamped in green then used the flower soft in Christmas Green over the stamped script. I added red berries in the holly noel with ruby red Liquid Pearls.



Can you tell how "real" looking the Flower soft is? Some people have asked if it is the same as "Fun Flock" just packaged under a different name. No, it isn't the same. Flower soft is finely detailed "petal-like" individual pieces. When used it gives the look of petal or leaves. It is hard to describe and my photos aren't very clear today since it is raining and I do not have a natural light bulb to use for photography. Also, Flower Soft doesn't require a special glue. Aileen's craft glue works great. I've been using a tube of Martha Stewart craft clue.



Obviously, I'm really having fun with Flower Soft. This card was so fast to put together and I really like the look.

Until next time...

Cheers!

    Oh crap - - I'm still hanging onto the last thread of summer and here you go with a Christmas card. Don't you remember all that fluffy white stuff you had less than a year ago??? This Flower Soft stuff is really neat looking though. Got any brown? I'm thinking you could turn Paul into a teddy bear...

    Thank you for the clarification. I could see that it wasnt Flock before, but the close up in this card says all.
