Madame Blueberry at the Beach with Cheery Lynn Designs

My Cheery Lynn Designs card today is one I have had

in my mind to do for quite a while.

Seriously, there are times I feel I might be losing my mind, when I am thinking and dreaming of things I can create or do with paper.

Today's card is just one of those daydreams.

I knew when I saw the AT THE BEACH set, I wanted to do a card with

MADAME BLUEBERRY and that set combined.

I started cutting out my pieces but knew I also wanted to combine some of the new dies into the card also. Somehow I wanted to use the new DARLING DAISIES set with this card, but did not know quite where to put them, yet!

I assembled my beach chair and looked at how small it was, and thought, MADAME BLUEBERRY might be a tad too large for it, but it all came together in the end.

Now, do not worry too much, when I start talking like Madame Blueberry is real, on my card, SHE IS, at least to me.

She just got her polka dot bathing suit and just got a summer hair-do.

The AT THE BEACH set comes with some great ocean waves, but since I knew I wanted to use the new DARLING DAISIES set, the ocean scene was not going to work.

I imagine MADAME BLUEBERRY sitting in her backyard, enjoying her beautiful flower garden, while sipping her Lime-aid by the side of her pool.

For the pool, I simply used 2 of the rectangles from the SCALLOPED RECTANGLE set.

So, there you have it! Yep, I have lost my mind! I can't help it. These VEGGIE TALE dies are just so fun to create these whimsical, fun cards!

Perfect card to give to a teacher, a neighbor or a friend.

Thanks for visiting today! I hope you like my crazy blog post and the opportunity to see how it is I formulate my card ideas, at least some of the time:)

Have a great weekend and get some sun, put your feet up and have a nice cold lemon-aide or something like that:)
