A Christmas Card for You from Maggi

Hi there Cheery Lynn fans, Maggi here today to share a pretty card with gorgeous blooms! The Cheery Lynn Poinsettia Strip 6 Piece Die Set makes the perfect poinsettias for cards, not too big, not too small, just right! The poinsettias perfectly set off the pristine winter scene from Graphic 45's Winter Wonderland collection.

The greeting is a metal piece. I rubbed some white paint into the etched sentiment to make it stand out and then mounted it on a small die cut from the Nesting Doll- Oval #1 set.

To make that pretty wreath, I used the Joy To The World Wreath set and cut two wreaths from slightly different colored paper and glued them together such that the branches opposed each other. Then I added some Stickles to mimic holly berries.

I really love sparkle on my Christmas cards so I used a red Wink of Stella pen to brush sparkle all ove the poinsettias. It's too bad that you can't really see that so much in the photo, but it is there! The flower centers are some white centers that I purchased and used alcohol ink to color.

The inside of the card is simple, I used the Merry Christmas Set 2 Piece Die Set for the sentiment and added a border strip. Easy!

Winter Photo Box with Cheryl Walker

Cheryl Walker 4:30 AM 0 Comments

Good morning crafty friends!!!
Today I have a super fun project created for Cheery Lynn using a Laughing Cow container to create a photo box. You know those containers from the grocery store that have cheese in them, well I try to keep them to use normally for candy or gift cards. These are super easy to make and look so beautiful when completed. I thought this one would be neat to hold photos.

To decorate this one, I cut out a blue circle and then the Priscilla Doily for the top. Next I used the Stacker #3 and another smaller circle for the sentiment area. I then stamped my sentiment and popped up the circle and the stacker frame.

Flowers and Flourish -
Flourish #8 cut in white.
Tea Rose Flowers cut in shimmer blue with brads in centers. I also used a few wreath branches for the flowers.

For the inside photo mats I chose to cut out 4 Priscilla doilies and 4 Cheery Lynn Horizon Circles. Then on the back I used 8 circles in 2 different sizes.
