Mother's Day Inspiration

Good morning and welcome to the Cheery Lynn Designs blog!  With Mother's day fast approaching I wanted to share a layout with you to celebrate the holiday!  This photo is of my daughter in law and one of my grand daughters.  I didn't realize how much they looked alike until I started scrapping this photo.

Anyway, here is the layout I made with my Cheery Lynn Designs Dies.

 To create the border on the side I used the Border Carnivale die.  I cut several and layered them alternating the circular edge. The flowers are made with the Sweet Williams die and I wanted them to look like a carnation bloom. Here are some close ups.
One of my favorite dies by Cheery Lynn is their Fanciful Flourish die, it add the perfect finishing touch to any layout and gives your layout the feeling of motion.  
The butterflies were cut with Exotic Butterflies #2 die. I love how lacy these butterflies look!

Thanks for stopping by the Cheery Lynn blog today!  Be sure to head on over the Cheery Lynn Challenge blog!  We have a great challenge going and you have a chance to wina $20 gift certificate good towards your favorite Cheery Lynn dies!
