Thank you card by Eva Dobilas

Hi there, this is Eva, and I have a pretty fall related card to share with you, since the season is here. This week's challenge is anything goes, so I figured, it's perfect time for this.

To create this card I started with an A2 size card out of black card stock, than cut a smaller sized patterned to fit on it. Next I die cut a Royal Scandinavian Doily out of black card stock and backed it up with the same size patterned paper. Next I die cut a Curved Border Set out of red card stock and added it the bottom and top of the patterned paper and added my doily.

Next I die cut two Sunflower dies and colored the flower petals in. I die cut a Flourish #14 and a Leafy Flourish and added it to my flower. Finally I die cut a Thank You #2 sentiment and added to my card front.

Here is the list of the Cheery Lynn dies I used to create this card with:

DL280 - Royal Scandinavian Doily

DL121 - Sunflower

CAFLRS - Flourish #14

B571 - Leafy Flourish

B569 - Curved Border Set

B540 - Thank You #2

Thanks for stopping by today and Good Luck to everyone entering our Weekly Challenge.

Hugs,

Eva

Romantic Criss Cross with Rhonda

Rhonda Van Ginkel 3:30 AM 7 Comments

Happy first day of September to you. It's Rhonda here today to host the blog.

I have a criss cross style card to share with you today. This style of card is fun to create as you get a decorative envelope and another sweet little card to go inside.

Once I assembled my base piece, I used our Card Maker Rectangle Classic to cut my pieces for the front. I then used the Lilith Edger Doily die on my angle. You see the Anastasia Border peeking out on the sides and bottom.

The Fiona's Magic Mirror fit perfectly inside to create the base for my card. The other layers were used with Card Maker Rectangle classic and scalloped. The little tags were layered and tucked in to create a little tab to help pull the card out.

I've used a variety of flowers here for interest and texture along with the Rose Leaf Strip and Flourish Leaf Strip. I hope you liked my creation today, it was really fun to create this card.

If you would like to make one of these cards, I will share the link on my blog.

A Krafty Romantic Card with Rhonda

Rhonda Van Ginkel 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Happy Monday to you! It's Rhonda here today to host the blog for you.

This week's new challenge is "Keep It Krafty", so I decided to use Kraft cardstock for the base of my card. I wanted to create something a bit romantic, yet still somewhat suitable for a masculine recipient.

"Always" (A2 sized card)

I started with the base card, then my first layer I used the Lady Kate Edger. Next, I used my Horizon Coved Rectangle Boutique Stacker, then added the Coved Rectangle Scalloped Stacker using Foam squares for dimension. To create a bit of interest I used a Steampunk Corner in the upper left of those layers.

The trimmed and inked Horizon Fishtail Banner was added with foam dimensional squares as well, then the Sentiment Tag 2 was the perfect anchor for either a sentiment or embellishment.

I opted to use the Dripping Butterfly as a focal point as I find it to be so very pretty! To finish my card I then applied the "Always" rub-on sentiment directly to the paper above. (Notice the vellum cut of the Sentiments Tag 2? The little Dandelions are another new favorite of mine, aren't they so cute?!!!

Cheery Lynn Designs dies used:
Lady Kate Edger - B278
Dripping Butterfly - DL266
Horizon Fishtail Banners - DL278
Dandelions - B453
Horizon Coved Rectangle Boutique Stacker Frames - DL251
Coved Rectangle Scalloped LG Stackers - XL11
Steampunk Corner - B437
Sentiment Tag 2 - B425
Margarita Border - B432

Please join us in our new "Keep It Krafty" challenge! You could win a $20 gift certificate to the online store just for playing along.

Have a wonderful Monday everyone!

Happy Anniversary

shulsart 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Sandy here with you today for Cheery Lynn Designs with an anniversary card I created. Using my Scalloped Square Stackers and match Silver Square Stackers I created my card base. Then I die cut the beautiful Lilith Doily w/Angel Wing and the matching Lilith Doily Edger. The doily is so pretty, I hesitated to cover the center with my sentiment. There is a Fancy Corner Cuts #1 which also matches these dies but I had my background adhered to my card base and it was too late to use them. So I added a few Lace Deco Corner pieces.

The last step was a Black Eyed Susan (don't you love that center) and some leaves created with Judy's Blooms. Finished size is 5 5/8" square.

Fancy Fold Card With Ann

Creative Options 3:30 AM 5 Comments

Hello from Ann, this week i wanted to share a fancy fold card with you.
It take's a while to construct but for an important occasion like a wedding, anniversary or significant birthday this card would be really special.

It has wings that fold forward and back so the card can stand on it's own.
I used the anastasia border to decorate the sides, it created a lovely lacey effect.
I wanted to use a victoria garden doily frame on the front but it was too wide so i cut it in half then overlapped the pieces, cut through the center again and discarded the extra sections. This way i was able to make the frame fit my card perfectly and added floral clusters to hide the joins.
The center portion lifts up to reveal an inside area where you can add a greeting. I intertwined a celtic heart around the mini pearl circle to frame it.

Thanks for stopping by and i hope you have enjoyed my card, I will be back again next week with my final post as a guest designer. All of the wonderful dies i have used are listed below.

FRM 128 Victoria's Garden Doily Frame
B136 Anastasia Border
B278 Lady Kate Edger
B307 Sweet Williams Strip
B119 Tropical Leaves
B147 Olive Branches
B265 Build A Flower #3 Embellishments
B244 Best Wishes
B144 Celtic Heart

Welcome Ann, Guest Designer for June

Creative Options 3:30 AM 8 Comments

Hello Cheery Lynn fans,
My name is Ann McLachlan, i'm honored to be a guest designer with my favorite company for June.
Thank you BJ, Gini and Lori for giving me this amazing opportunity.....So exciting!

I live on the Hibiscus Coast North of Auckland in New Zealand.
I have been scrapbooking and card making for the past twelve years and over that time i have been fortunate to have been published in several magazines, designed for four design teams (as a coordinator on three). I have worked as a demonstrator for two different companies and taught classes at two retreats.

I love playing with paper craft goodies and hope you enjoy my creations.

For my first project as guest designer I have designed a gate fold card in pink & cream, i really love the softness and femininity of the colors but it also has lots of layers for visual interest.

I started with a metallic pearl gate fold card, adding patterned paper edged with strips of lace light deco border in cream and embellished them with pink rhinestones for added bling.

I then added a layer of chicken wire cut in metallic pink.

This is one of my favorite dies for adding background texture.

I die cut a french pastry doily in cream, cut it in half and centered them on each side of the card.

To embellish my card I added velvet blooms in opposite corners with rose leaf and leaf flourish foliage. I finished the front off with a sentiment frame on topped with another tag and a hugs sentiment.

To decorate the inside of my card I covered each panel with patterned paper.

In the four outside corners I placed a die cut from the lace deco corners I set

and finished off the center with strips of light lace deco border cut in metallic pink card.

I hope you have enjoyed my first project, I will be back with another project next week.

Joann 3:30 AM 12 Comments

Hi Everyone,

It's Joann with you today and I have a fun little project to share using my Cheery Lynn dies and some of the lovely Prickley Pear stamps and co-ordinating dies. Yes, it's a folding purse! You can find more info on it here.

As you know, this week we have been enjoying this lovely joint venture with Prickly Pear. I hope you have been enjoying the wonderful creations made by both DT's and we have provided you with some inspiration.

Here are a few more pictures of my purse:

and here it is what it looks like open. I really love that you can use a variety DP's to decorate.

I really do love the way this little purse came together however, I do have a suggestion for you... If you are planning to make this, I suggest you make the top flap an 1/2 inch longer and score a 1/2 flat piece at the top so that you have somewhere to attach the handle. I think this might make it easier to close : )

B152 - Miniature Rose
B154 - Medium Rose
B155 - Large Rose
B309 - Sweethearts Edger
DL129 - Border Carnivale

Flower Cart

Joann 3:30 AM 8 Comments

Hi Everyone,

The last time I was away on vacation I spied a gorgeous little cart where locals were selling fresh flowers on the side of the road. I was really taken with how lovely it was and so I thought that this might make for some lovely inspiration for this week's theme "Lots of Layers".

The Daisy Lace Frame made the perfect roof for my miniature "cart on wheels" which I lined with some green vellum paper that I have been holding on to forever just waiting for the perfect project to use it. This was it!

I am just in love with the tiny vases and can see that I will definitely be using these a lot! I would love to hear your ideas on how you would use these little beauties. For this project I wanted them to have some dimension but they are just as gorgeous when you use them as a single die cut : )

Here is a closer look

Here's a list of the dies used for this project:

B151 - Cuties 3
B188 - Embellishment #2
B265 - Embellishment #3
B303 - Baby Carriage (Handle Only)
B306 - Vase (Set of 4)
B308 - City Girl Edger
B315 - Ivy Corner Flourish
DL241 - Ambergris Doily
FRM118 - Daisy Lace Frame

I hope you can find some time to visit the challenge this week and put in your entry where the theme is Lots of Layers! With your entry you will have a chance to win a $20.00 shopping spree at Cheery Lynn Designs!

Have a Cheery Day!

Wired Wall Hanging

Tamara Morton 3:49 AM 4 Comments

Hello everybody Tamara here, its Sunday again and that means my post and inspiration for Cheery Lynn. My project this week is a wall hanging.

I die cut my base from the biggest scalloped edge square stacker. Its just the right side for these type of wall hangings and the best thing is that you could add to it at a later stage if you so wished. Some of my previous wall hangings I have created 2 and 3 tiered ones, they do look so effective! I like to give these as gifts instead of traditional cards..

E21, 11, 0, 000 R20

E29, 25, 31

For the sentiment I used Eco green acrylic paint in pomegranate and aged gold with a little walnut stain distress inks on the side.. These gorgeous flowers are from the new release called Shasta Daisy, these come in a flower strip.. To create the shape I first spritzed with water, crumpled them up then very carefully unfolded. Once you have a shape that you like use your heat gun to dry. I dripped these into melted beeswax, they then retain their shape.

The leafs have had a dusting of perfect pearls over the beeswax, this creates such a soft sheen..

I have also added a touch of flower soft to the edges.

Hope you like my inspiration today, if you would like a chance at winning $20 coupon to spend on Cheery Lynn Dies, check out Cheery Lynn Challenge blog. Challenges start on Monday's we have a different theme each week.

Well I'm off got a busy day ahead. Wherever you are have a fabulous day..

Of course all the flowers are handmade from the latest flower strips...YUM!!!

I cut down the doilies to work perfectly in the center of my step card. It adds such an elegance. The City Girl Edger was used to create the paper lace at the bottom of the card. I just love this card so much and hope you do too. Have a great weekend and I'll see you next week.

Hugs, Lori

Love with a Flourish

Donna 3:30 AM 5 Comments

I didn't make a card last week for Cheery Lynn Designs Inspiration blog, due to having the flu, but as I had started my card, and finished it for this week's challenge which is USE a Flourish.

For my card I used one of the new images by Krista Smith, It's perfect for Valentine's Day. Sentiment is from Magnolia, and I shaped the rectangle with some jagged edges.

I did the same thing for the edging around the image. She's been colored with Copics,Promarkers,Flexmarkers and I've used Viva Decor Pen for the little pearl drops.

In the right hand corner I've used one of the lovely corner dies from Lace Corner Deco B set.

I'm not sure what you call this style of card, I think it's a Criss Cross Flip Card, but I enjoyed making it and the size of it is 7.5 inches x 7.5 inches. I've added the Fanciful Flourish and the Mini Flourish One dies behind the image, ribbon from my stash. The lovely Kate Edger border along the two sides at the back.

Inside the flip card I've used three sentiment dies, Happy, Valentine's and Day. These dies are all in sets of two, so perfect for both cards and Scrapbooking.
