Hello Tag by Jenny Alia

Hello! I'm back today with a floral tag I made. I've been experimenting using different colors for leave lately. I hope you like the result. I think the vertical stripes give the tag an elongated appearance. I cut the flowers out of a glitter paper I made with a background stamp and embossing powder. I used an orange polka dot paper to cut the flourishes. The tag needed a little more interest and the polka dots complement the ones on the top of the tag.

The flowers were adhered with foam adhesive and blue rhinestones were glued to the centers.

Hello by Jenny Alia

Hi, I was inspired to use lime green and aqua together and this is the result. The hello is photographing as black but it's actually more of a charcoal color. I chose the colors first, the background lattice next, and then the flowers and foliage.

This hello from the Bohemian Word set is one of my go-to Cheery Lynn dies. I love the casual script font and the size is large enough to make a visual impact on a card. It works well on clean-and-simple cards but is elegant enough to use on other style cards as well. After molding the Sweet Williams flowers using a stylus and molding mat, I added a white center from the Embellishment #2 Set and glued small rhinestones to the centers.

Happy Valentine's Day by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Happy Valentine's Day. It’s JULIE here today and I am sharing a vintage Valentine card that could easily be adapted as a Mother’s Day or Birthday card using these dies.

I tattered a few layers and added some lace onto my torn layer.

Both my Heart Frame and Heart Pop-Up have shadow layers on them.

My Cupid is made from a Katy Sue Mould and Paper Clay.

My flowers were cut from white cardstock and shaded with Distress Inks adding Pearls into the centres.

Finishing my card with a White Dove and some Heart Pearls. My XO's and Arrow were shaded with Pro Marker metallic pens.

Happy New Year Hostess Gift idea!

Maggi 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi there Cheery Lynn fans, Maggi here. First, I want to wish you all a very happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. I hope 2018 is memorable for you in many good ways! I'm sad to say that this is my farewell post for Cheery Lynn Designs. It has been a wonderful 13 months designing for them and I am so appreciative of the opportunity given me. Thank you so much everyone at Cheery Lynn Designs. I love their dies, they are so imaginative and fun to work with. However, it is time to let someone else enjoy the privilege of being on Cheery Lynn's design team.

Now let's look forward to the New Year celebrations. To to kick off the holiday, I've turned an ordinary bottle of champagne into a fun hostess gift by adding this shaker bottle hanger. I used the New Year 2017 Shaker Die Set to make the shaker. The die has 2017 as part of it's design so I just simply cut that off and glued the included sentiment, Happy New Years, to the acetate on the front of the shaker.

I used a large cut from the Coved Rectangle Stitch And Cut Tool set and placed behind the bottle hanger, using the bottle hanger as the 2nd layer. On top of that I used a black starred layer cut with the A2 Frames Rectangular Scalloped set. Next is the floral design paper cut with the Pierced Stacker 2 set. All the papers I used are from Graphic 45's Vintage Hollywood collection and the dancing couple is fussy cut from one of the design papers.

The flowers are handmade using a mix of layered cuts from the Judy's Blooms Die, Sweet Williams Die, Indie Bouquet , and Floral Bouquet Kit 8 Piece Die Sets.

To top the hanger and give a real festive look, I added two pretty bows and a floral center.

One thing I really love is a pretty swirly flourish and here I've used Flourish #7 Die.

Olive You 12" x 12" Layout with Cheryl Walker

Cheryl Walker 2:30 AM 0 Comments

Hello everyone and Happy Wednesday to you all! Today's layout is using Cheery Lynn's beautiful dies to adorn this page. I love the Sweet William Flowers on this, they are pretty simple to make, as all I did was distress them and then glue them using the Best Glue Ever from Cheery Lynn.

For the page itself I used the Club Scrap Trattoria collection for all card stock and design papers. Next for the corner brackets I used Cheery Lynn's Dusty Miller Framed Corners B883

The flowers were done using Cheery Lynn's Sweet William Strip and the red card stock from the Trattoria kit. I did distress each flower using Club Scraps Hybrid Ruby ink for the petals, and then added some pearls from Really Reasonable Ribbon to each. The greenery behind the flowers are cut with Cheery Lynn's Flourish #8 and Club Scraps Green card stock. The flowers were put together using Cheery Lynn's Best Glue Ever.

For the little Olive You tag -
I cut it using Cheery Lynns Dutch Daisy Tag and brown card stock. Next I used the same cream card stock that I cut the French Pastry Mega Doily with for my tags sentiment.

Thanks Card by Amy Voorthuis

Amy Voorthuis 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Good morning Cheery Lynn Fans.

Who is your greatest inspiration for creating? Well for me there are a couple ladies/men who inspire me to create, one of them is Gabrielle Pollacco {who doesn't love her work right??}! She has been a guest here for Cheery Lynn Design too a couple of years back. She got me inspired to make this card {especially the flowers with the white dots on them} so thanks sweet Gabi....sometimes inspiration is drifting off and you need some to make a DT project. Then for me I just have to look at some of my amazing friends and I know what to make.

Thanks:

Those sprays are made with the Sweet William Strip and they are really easy to make. Hopefully I can show you how I made them soon. I LOVE the burlap border, it's one of my favorite dies from Cheery Lynn because you can use it for so many things {mostly for a background piece}. Here on my card I layered two of them slightly moved on top of each other.

For this card I used several 49 and Market collections. Since you almost only see Christmas/Halloween cards on the blog at the moment I thought, let's make something different to show off....oops I did that last week too hehe. I am not such a fan of Christmas. I think that's why I almost never make those cards.

Cheery Lynn Designs dies used:

B310 - Shasta Daisy
B307 - Sweet Williams Strip
B312 - Burlap Border
B682 - Quadrafoil Tag
CAFLRS-7 - Flourish #7

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. You could also visit my blog at Amy's Pretty Papers for more inspiration.
Have a wonderful day!

Sweet William Card with Cheryl Walker

Cheryl Walker 1:00 AM 1 Comments

Hello everyone and Happy Monday to you all!
Today I have a card created for Cheery Lynn using the beautiful Sweet William Strip Flower die, along with a few other fun dies :)

I started with picking some design paper, and after that I knew what I wanted to do. The Sweet William Flowers are so pretty and I thought they would look perfect cut with the coordinating design paper from this line. I used Crate Paper line for this card. I did distress each flower, and kept them single layers, and added a pearl to the center of each one. Pearls used are 8, 10, 12 mm pearls.

The layers I cut are the Royal Scandinavian Doily die, LPC4 Circle die, Flourish #8 die, and of course the beautiful sweet William Strip die.

Cheery Lynn Dies Used:
Royal Scandinavian Die DL280
LPC4 Circle die,
Flourish 8 die
Sweet William Strip die B307

The ribbon, fabric button, and pearls are all from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

I love how this card turned out, and so glad I pulled some of my older design papers out to use. It's nice to use them up, and it's like having new papers again...hehehhehe

Thank you for looking and hope you enjoyed today's post!

Have a nice day!

hugs to all,

Cheryl

She is a Happy Soul Always Tag by Amy Voorthuis

Amy Voorthuis 2:30 AM 0 Comments

Good morning lovely Cheery Lynn fans.
I hope you are having a wonderful day as we here in Holland are enjoying a day off due to a national holiday. We are planing on making this day as special as can be and we have some nice weather to go with it {almost 30 degrees}
I am so glad that summer is finally kicking in.....for today I would like to share a tag with you using some amazing Prima Marketing papers and dies by Cheery Lynn Designs!

She is a Happy Soul Always:

This was a fun tag to make. I am normally more of a soft color person, but this collection is awesome because I really like grey/black and pink together. First I cut out all the elements that I wanted to use on my tag to later on add them to my work.

For my flower centers I used metal embellishments/brads by two different companies. At the end I sprayed two different colors of my Lindy's sprays and added a flair to my tag which is designed by my friend Valerie.

Cheery Lynn Design dies used:
CASO-15 - Nesting Doll Circles #15
DL327 - Mandala Doily 2
B870 - Feathers
B307 - Sweet Williams Strip
SF-3 - Stacker Flower #3
B241 - Rose Leaf Strip

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 wonderful day and almost weekend!

Missing You by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi everyone, it's JULIE here today and I am sharing with you a few tips on how to get dimension into your Dies cuts.

My card today uses Maja Design papers, I started by cutting out my Stacker layers and tattering at the edges with my scissors and tearing out small sections of the paper and inserted my lace style die cut for detail.

My butterflies were all cut out twice and I moulded the wings to give shape with my fingers. I pressed them into my Versamark Ink pad and heat embossed with a Pearl Embossing powder. Whilst still warm I held my wings so they stayed curled as they cooled and would then constantly remain in this shape. This is a great way so your wings don't flatten especially if posting a card.

My flowers I sprayed my die cuts with a little water and moulded each petal in a concertina effect. I next dried with my heat gun and then teased my petals back out to show the crinkles and shaped the layers on my Embossing mat then added a Pearl and Stamens into their centres.

I accented my Doily top and bottom of my card adding half a flower onto them and used the matching mini Doily behind my centre butterfly.

New Flower Shaker Card Kit

Maggi 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Cheery Lynn Designs has great shaker card kits and today I'm sharing a new one with you. I love the flower shape of this shaker. It's big enough that you can frame an image inside your shaker as I have done.

This card is a meeting of summer and winter. I have masked some snowflakes on the background but because I am seriously longing for warm weather and spring, I decided to go with flowers!

I made the large flower using the Sweet Williams Die and the two smaller flowers were made with the Indie Bouquet - 6 Die Set from the Bohemian Collection.

Underneath the rhinestone swirls I used Flourish #4 Die - CAFLRS4. I think the swirls on top give this card a nice flair.

Easter Wishes With Lisa Blastick

Lisa 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Hi! Welcome back to another Easter card for Cheery Lynn Designs! I had a fun time making this Easter card using several die cuts from Cheery Lynn Designs. I adore the "bunny" and I added his fun eye. The "lace egg" in the background is so delicate... Perfect for Easter.

I stamped the sentiment on the "quatrefoil tag" in black ink. All the flowers are "sweet williams strip" and I added pearls in the center. The "floral bouquet kit" is a must have because there are so many flowers and leaves to choose. I also added the "grass border" and "victorian fence"
