Cosmo Cricket just came out with a new product called Glubers. They are adhesive circles that come in various sizes … 2 inch, 2 ½ inch, and 3 inches and can be used to make quick and easy fabric and ribbon flowers. They debuted at CHA and I can’t wait to buy them as they will be so easy to use! While I am waiting to order them, I decided to make my own.
Here is a card that I made using two different techniques from Cosmo Cricket. I am such a big fan of theirs and love, and use a lot of their products. I can’t wait to purchase Glubers as soon as they are available. I also came up with a couple of new ideas for ribbon flowers using homemade Glubers.
Enjoy the video!

Hi Linda, I love your flowers. Jennifer McGuire showed us how to make those rolled flowers when I took her classes a few months ago (we were soooo lucky to have her here), but I really enjoyed watching how you made the Glubers. I need ways to use up some of the stashes of material I have and this will help!!! Karin
What a great product and idea. I can't wait to make my own Gluber fabric flowers. Thank you Linda for sharing this video.

What a fab way to make flowers. I will definately be trying this out. Thanks for the tip.
I was just watching the video last night from the show and they were showing the Glubers. Always better to watch you doing it. Thanks for the inside scoop.
Thank you for sharing the video. Your flowers are gorgeous! Can't wait to try it myself.
Glubers sound like an interesting idea - but certainly something that can be made with existing supplies, just as you've shown. Thanks for the ideas! Thanks also for the flower tutorials. I especially like your blue/purple flower. That's gorgeous!
I love this idea! Thanks for the video on this and doing it yourself. I most definately will be making them.!!.
Thanks again, Marcie

Thanks for the video your flowers are beautiful! Can not wait to give this a try. Thank you.
I have some of this paper. I love how you mixed it all together. And the flower is so pretty. :)
Sue, I so agree and can't wait to buy these!
Linda
Great take off on the "Glubers". I haven't tried .. but could you run ciecles through XYRON and come up with "Glubers"? I may try this afternoon. Toooooo much WEATHER to be out and about. TFS
Ms Joyce: Great idea! let me know if it works!
Linda
What a great idea and thank you for showing us how to make our own Glubers. Very pretty flowers and looks easy. I will need to try this very soon.
How fun is this... thanks so much for sharing!! I can't wait to try some myself :-)

Hi Linda, Thanks for putting together all the tutorial videos. I have learned so much from them. You have such great ideas, thank you for sharing them!
Linda,
I like your flowers (especially the last pink one), better then the glubers. Thanks for showing us your technique. Oh and by the way, if you need to get some lighter fluid. Any gumminess that builds up on your scissors from tape, can easily be cleaned off by applying a little lighter fluid to a paper towel and rubbing the surface of the scissors. Make sure you whip off excess with the cry part of your paper towel. This will not hurt your scissors at all. Happy Crafting.
Marcie
Marcie: Thanks! I did not know about the lighter fluid. Linda
Wonderful! I think these would make great hair accessories :) I will have to make some glubers.
Thanks for the flower tutorial! I'm excited to see if I can bang some out! Heather
I realize that this post about the flowers was quite some time ago but I wanted to comment about the use of duct tape. I never would have thought to use it and I tried and it works like a charm. The flowers are beautiful. Thanks for the wonderful cheap hint.
This was an excellent tutorial with a very budget friendly idea. I appreciate you sharing the duct tape gluber idea. I have made over 100 vintage pins with this idea. Love it!!
