Life is Good Card by Amy Voorthuis

Good morning everyone.

It's my turn again on this lovely blog and today I'd like to show you another card I created with some amazing dies. It's a black & white shaker card and I not only added shaker pieces but also cut out gears. I also made some fun flower sprays on this card. They are so much fun to make. Hopefully I will get the time to show you how I made them soon.

Life is Good:

Since I make many layouts, I also have a bunch of leftover papers. This card was also made with leftovers. First I layered a piece of black with white dots paper on my 15.5 by 15.5 cm base card that is made with just white thick card stock.

Then I cut my frame out of the leftover white card stock. Then I took another piece of the same dotted paper of 14.5 by 14.5 to cut out a part that is just a little smaller then the frame so I could stick my lattice frame on the back of that particular piece.

Then I added my shaker pieces like the metal daisies shaker parts, mini art stones, gears and beads to fill up my card! On the phrase I made some stripes on the outer sides of the letters to make it pop up a little more that is what I also did with the outside of the card.

Cheery Lynn Design dies used:

K101-12 - Shaker Mini Daisy

B803 - Whimsical Life is Good

B704 - 3D Daisy Flower

B307 - Sweet Williams Strip

FRM115 - Lattice A2 Frame

B340 - Gears {set of 9}

Thank you so much for visiting the blog today!

I hope you enjoyed my post and I have inspired you to use your Cheery Lynn Designs dies.
Have a lovely weekend.....

Let's Grow Wise Together by Christina McIntosh

Unknown 3:00 AM 1 Comments

Hello! Today I am sharing my first Cheery Lynn Designs Project called "Let's Grow Wise Together". This is a card featuring the use of several Cheery Lynn Designs dies. Whenever I design anything I always consider the color palette and color tone family I will be using and this project was no exception. I chose soft warm tones using browns, pinks, rust reds, copper, warm muted yellows, muted dark greens and soft warm light beige. Why? Well...why not right? And without further adieu...duh, da, da, dahh...owl love card!

This card was so fun to make and who doesn't love a "LOVE" theme. It was actually the dies that drove my color choices in the first place and this design was hatched from my creative impatience to use two of my new favorite dies, the Cheery Lynn Designs Whimsical Owl Die and the Cheery Lynn Designs Whimsical Tree of Life Die from their new "Whimsical Delights" release. From there it was all about layering with other die cuts including those (small and medium Pierced Banners Dies) that would allow me to add my sentiment which I hand inked, "Let's Grow Wise Together." I wanted my main background paper to have texture and I opted for the "Fleur De Lis" embossed texture.

Thank you so very much for joining me. If you have any further questions on how this was made, please do not hesitate to add your questions in the comments area below. I would love to hear from you. I read and respond to every comment and question.
