Foamiran Rose Card

Morning, I am back again with a little inspiration using the wonderful Foamiran from 14 Craft Bar. Today I have used the roses to decorate a beautiful decoupage card from Reddy. They make beautiful decoupage cards and what would be better to embellish it, but with some matching Foamiran roses. They really add that finishing touch.

You will Need:

White Foamiran (001)

Scissors

Hot Glue Gun

Blue Oil Pastel

Centura Pearl Precious Metal

Blue Card

Centura Pearl White/Silver Card

Reddy Decoupage

Tacky Glue

3D Glue Gel

Tonic Flourishes Die

Weathered Wood Distress Ink

Stamping Card.

Step 1: Cut out your mat and layers, this will depend on the image or decoupage you have chosen to use. I have picked the colours for this to match the colours in my image.

Step 2: Mount the design onto the first layer with Tacky glue.

Step 3: Add the other layers, then add your decoupage layers with 3D Glue gel.

Step 4: I added another layer to my card and then mounted it onto a Centura Pearl base as I wanted a larger finished card.

Step 5: Cut the flourishes from white stamping card, blend a little Weathered Wood Distress Ink to match the image. I have also used a Sakura gold pen, here and there, again to match the image.

Step 6: From 2.5 cm & 3 cm Foamiran squares cut your petal shapes.

Step 7: Take 4 or 5 petals at a time and edge them with the oil pastel, try to choose a colour to match your image.

Step 8: Warm the Foamiran on an iron, concertina fold and twist back and to. Shape the petals and roll some of the petals outwards. See the video below for the simple white rose.

Step 9: Create your roses, layering the petals and securing with the hot glue.

Step 10: Add the roses to your project. I have used 3D glue gel rather than hot glue as it gives you a longer working time to make sure you are happy with positioning.

Here is the finished card:

Green Satin Cardstock 5 x 7''

Collall Tacky Glue

3 mm Foam Tape or Pads

Step 1: First emboss your Cream Card with the design. Place a basic oval die over the design and lightly draw around the outside. The trim around the leaves and ribbon that overhang the pencil line. Trim just past the line (approx 3-5 mm) to allow you to slip the die underneath.

Step 2: Now position your die where you traced, make sure that all the leaves and ribbon are above your die or they will be cut off. Then run through your machine.

Step 3: From the centre of your precious gold card, cut your oval layer, one size larger than before. Layer your embossed design onto this with Tacky glue.

Step 4: Layer your green and gold card using Tacky glue, then secure to your base card.

Step 5: Cut the word 'Peace' to add to this project. You can use any sentiment to suit the occasion.

Step 6: Secure your embossed topper to the base layers using 3 mm foam tape or pads to add further dimension.
