Hello friends, it’s Ellen here with you today! I’m sharing two cards with you that I created using pretty flowers, because spring is in the air.

As you can see I used a lot of flock and foil on my cards. This immediately brings a wow factor to all your projects.

Below I will tell you step by step how to use these techniques.

First I used the Deco Foil foam sheets with the flock. I did cut a piece flock a little larger than the foam. Then I peeled the paper liner off the front side of the foam to expose the adhesive and place the flock (color side facedown) on top. I used a manual die-cutting machine to add pressure. After that, you can peel away the flocked sheet from the foam and use them as stickers for your project. As last step I did cute my foam stickers with all the dies I did use.

I did apply foil on top of a Deco Foil Toner Sheet too.

Here is how you do it: You cut a piece of foil slightly larger than the piece of toner sheet. Place the foil (color side facing up) on top of the toner sheet. Place the sandwich inside the folded parchment paper and put it in a hot laminator. After that remove the residue from the foil transfer sheet away. Now you have a foiled piece of paper. I did cut the words happy out of it and did apply 3D foam under the foiled word.

You can foil any of your favorite papers too. It’s really amazing!  I useded the word birthday from a Deco Foil Adhesive Transfer Design.

Peel the clear bottom liner and put it on top of the piece of paper. Place your project inside a folded Deco Foil Craft & Carrier Sheet and run through a hot laminator. Next, you slowly peel back the printed top liner to reveal the clear adhesive design. Then you can use a piece of foil (slightly larger than the design) and place it (color side up) on top of the adhesive design. When it did go true the laminator again, you will get a pretty foiled banner (in this case).

A singing flower, will bring so much joy to every birthday party!

As you know I always like to give you two examples. I made the second card with the same techniques.

I hope these cards inspire you to make cute flower cards for your loved ones.
