• Christmas and everyday traditional decoupage at 49p a sheet;
• selected die cut decoupage at £1.20 a sheet;

Cards made with Flower Fairies toppers

Here are a few cards that I made with Flower Fairies toppers - a few sets are still available as a free gift at Foil Play if you place an order for £20 or more.
I have matted and layered up all of the toppers using square or labels Nestabilities dies and self adhesive foam pads. The first two cards are 5 x 7 inch cards. I have rounded the edges of both the cards and the large matt - on the top card this is pearlescent card embossed with a cuttlebug die and on the second, a piece of handmade textured paper. I have added ribbon to both cards and a flower with a Kanban pearl gem centre to the first one.
The next two cards are 6 x 6 inches. The one above has been covered with a Hot off the Press paper and a toning tag added. The one below has been covered with a DCWV paper and embellished with a self adhesive Anna Griffin paper ribbon.
Flower Fairies toppers (pictured below) are available as a free gift option at Foil Play if you spend over £20 or more.
If you spend over £20 in a single transaction, visit the free gifts section of the website, and just add the gift of your choice to your order basket. The offer applies to website purchases only, while stocks of individual gifts last.
