Own Little World by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi everyone, it’s JULIE here today and I am sharing some more inspiration with our latest release - Let’s Go Retro.



 My card measures approximately 6 x 6 inches. I started by adding my 2 Stacker base layers onto my card and some stars which I outlined with a glitter pen to give depth to them. I next added on my moon with a Visible Image sentiment stamped in the centre.


My rocket was cut out in glitter card and white cardstock which was shaded with Copic pens.




 My cute robot was cut in Miri card and Glitter Card adding lots of little gems onto her.

Faith Hope Love by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi Cheery Lynn friends, it's JULIE here today and this time I am sharing a card with the elegant Die Cut sentiment Faith, Hope, Love which could be used on a variety of cards or alternatively on a Scrapbook Layout possibly with Wedding photographs.


I started by cutting out my Pierced Stacker Dies in Square and a Circle and embossed the edges with Silver Embossing powder, using Maja Design papers.


I matted and layered my centrepiece with foam tape between the layers to add dimension to my card and added a contrasting blue square of Cardstock behind my Doily to help it 'pop' gluing my sentiment onto the circle.


Using my Flourish #3 Die I cut this out in 2 shades of green card and arranged elements of this Die onto my card.

Finishing off with a pretty butterfly.

Easter Egg Hunt by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi everyone, it's JULIE here today and I thought I would share some inspiration for an Easter card in a vintage design.


Cheery Lynn have many cute Easter Dies that embellish our crafty designs so well. My sweet little chicks were diecut from a yellow patterned cardstock and I coloured their beaks and feet with Copic Pens and added a touch of Black Liquid Pearls for their eyes.


My rabbit was also cut in patterned paper adding a fluffy cotton tail and some Liquid Pearls also to his eye.


My Stackers were all layered up in different shades of paper adding a little cheesecloth behind my image.

Lady Steampunk by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi everyone, it's JULIE here today and I do hope you are having a lovely weekend preparing for the forthcoming Festivities. I thought it would be nice to share a card using the fantastic Steampunk dies that Cheery Lynn make.  I love the versatility of these dies and have fun making them look grungy, masculine or giving them a feminine shabby look. So let me take you through the details on my card.


My Steampunk corners, cogs and butterfly wings were all heat embossed with Frantage powders, tucking accents of cogs behind my paper layers with touches of lace and cheesecloth.


My corset was mounted onto patterned paper and trimmed around the edges. I repeated this process cutting out the bust area only and glued in place on top of the corset with silicone glue to add dimension. The belt was made using the Hinges die adding a little thread. I finished my corset with lace edges and some bling then mounted onto my Butterfly.


My roses and leaves were cut in coordinating paper to compliment the roses on my paper.

Sister Celebration by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi Cheery Lynn friends, it's JULIE here and today I am sharing a shabby chic style card using many of our beautiful floral and lace style dies.


My card measures 8x5 Inches and I started by adding a patterned layer of paper to my card which I added Frantage, distressed at the edges and added some ink. I also added a couple of corner accents and my double layered inked butterfly.


My next couple of layers were torn across the page and my small doily and leaves inserted behind. These layers were added with foam strips for extra dimension.


My main image was mounted onto my frame with foam strips. I added Frantage, my word Sister and a Flower into the girl's hair for extra detail.


My flourish was cut down and all the parts placed in at different angles. Adding my flowers and extra leaves finishing with accents of Pearls.

Songbirds by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 4 Comments
Hi Everyone, it's JULIE here today. In Scotland the Songbirds are all starting to sing. It's so lovely to hear them happy now that Spring has arrived.....unless it's 5 o'clock in the morning ! So my card today was taken from inspiration of the blossom filled trees and these beautiful birds.

I started by layering up a couple of my stacker dies to form the frame of my card. I love how the inverted scallops give the appearance of a postage stamp edge.
My branches were all cut out in textured Green Cardstock and I went over the branch area with a Brown Copic Pen. I then shaded a small piece of White Cardstock with a few shades of ink and then die cut out my flowers and added a little Stickles into the centres.
My sentiment was stamped onto patterned paper.
My sweet little birds were shaded with Distress inks to look like a Robin and a Blue Tit. I added a drop of Liquid Pearls for their eyes and highlighted the details of the die with a Fine Liner pen. If you google an image of the kind of bird you want to colour on your die, I find this makes it easy to shade them.

Our Current Challenge is Mothers Day and I do hope you get a chance to join in for a chance to win a $20 shopping spree. Thanks so much for stopping by and for the wonderful comments you leave. I love reading them and appreciate them so much.
