'Tis the Season by Julie Lavalette

Hi Cheery Lynn fans, it's JULIE here today and I'm sharing some festive inspiration using our super fun new Brad the Reindeer Die.

I started by cutting out my background layers all in glitter card for lots of sparkle. My snowflake I layered two different snowflake Dies to form my snowflower adding lots of bling onto it. This was then placed onto my Holly Flourish which I cut into sections and placed around my snowflower.

Brad was cut out in a mixture of kraft, cream and glitter cardstock. I added a little Distress Ink onto the edges of his face. The antlers I used Distress Powder and a white Embossing powder for added texture.

Coffee Gift Card by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi everyone, it's JULIE here today and I am sharing some more inspiration with our latest Fall and Winter Dies, I'm just loving this new collection. When I saw the coffee cup Die I thought this would be great to add onto a gift card, so let me show you how I made this.

My card measures approximately 4.75" x 6.25". I started by adding my Stacker layers on to the base along with a accent of glitter glue. Using the Gift Envelope Die I cut it out in patterned paper and placed a stamped sentiment and diecut snowflake onto it.

My coffee cup I added a diecut corrugated strip to the centre and my sweet Gingerbread man which comes in the Gift Envelope Set. This was layered onto my Snowflake Border.

On the inside I added a coordinating Snowflake Border, gluing in place leaving a space free to insert a gift card.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope you feel inspired to make some cards like this for Gifts.

Crafty Hugs,

Julie x

Tree Shaker Card by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi everyone, it's JULIE here today and I am sharing some Festive inspiration using the new Christmas Tree shaker die. I have made this card in mind that many of us like to make a lot of Christmas cards, so this is a design that won't take too long to make. My card measures 4 and a half inches square, this is smaller than my usual square cards I make.

My Christmas Tree was coloured with a mix of Distress Powder and a sparkly powder and filled with Metal Confetti, Micro Beads and Glass Glitter.

All my sparkly and snow layers were made by heat embossing with different colours of powder after die cutting them out. This takes a little longer to do but has the advantage of your glitter staying in place and not falling off.

In answer to your question Gail Lass, how do we manage not to have the glitter sticking to the acetate ? left in our comments on Blog Hop Day. I use Glass Glitter inside my shakers which is less static and our metal confetti doesn't hold a static charge. I also keep the protective paper over my acetate as I die cut it and only pull off as I am ready to glue in place. This way the acetate is not picking up static charge from your body. Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for all your wonderful comments on Blog Hop Day, I loved reading them all. It would be great to see you sharing your creativity with Cheery Lynn Dies in our Bi Weekly Challenge with a chance to win a $20 Shopping Spree.
