Belongs with Lisa Blastick

Hello! Sharing another Valentine card using Cheery Lynn Designs die cuts.

I have been making several heartwarming cards this year....just need to mail them all out now.

I first embossed with the embossing plate "petite hearts" Then I die cut a couple of "stitched rectangles" I added the beautiful "heart" and "sweetheart candy" on the sides. I wanted to add some beautiful doves from "birds from earth and sky" and lastly some "tiny fanciful flourish"

I added some pearls on the corners just to match the polka dot paper....The sketch was inspired by Verve as well as the sentiment....

Lovebirds by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi Cheery Lynn Fans, it's JULIE here and today I am sharing some inspiration using a selection of our Love themed Dies on my Vintage styled Valentine card.

I started by cutting out my Heart Stackers for the base of my card adding a couple of tattered layers.

My centre heart doily and sentiment were both shadow layered to help them pop against my patterned paper. I also added some cheesecloth behind my Lovebirds image which I coloured with a little Sugar Spun Distress Stain.

My flowers were all shaped with Embossing tools on my mat. I added gems into the centre of two of them and Stickles into the centre of my Baby's Breath flowers.

Holiday Fireplace Card Set with Laurie Schmidt

laurie 2:00 AM 0 Comments

Hi everyone, Laurie here from Stamping Up North!

My last Cheery Lynn post I shared Holiday Window cards (you can find those here) and today I'm sharing a Holiday Fireplace card set. Cheery Lynn's windows, fireplaces and doors are so fun to make cards with...and there are so many other dies that can be used to decorate them too. The fireplace actually comes with some cute stockings, candles and picture frames.

For my first card... Halloween.... I used a black fireplace and cut out a pumpkin from the Jack O' Lanterns and set him on the mantle with some Tiny Fanciful Flourishes on each side. Then I added some spooky webs behind the fire, and stamped my sentiment in black.

My second card is for Thanksgiving.

I dressed up the brown fireplace with some pillars on each side from the Wrought Iron Fence die. Then I decorated the mantle with the candles and a tiny bow from the Merry Christmas Gift Envelope set.The pumpkin is from the Fall Pumpkin Patch and comes with the pretty tiny leaf scrolls. I added a sign that says," Blessings" from the Winter Holiday Word set, and tucked a piece of the Mandy Doily underneath the fireplace for a rug.

My third card is for Christmas, and this time I used a white fireplace and cut a piece off of a brown fireplace for the base. The stockings and candles come with the set, I also added a fun sign from the Merry Christmas Gift Envelope set. I tucked some Pine Branches on each side and a bit of holly on the top. The holly is from the Christmas Wreath set, which I use a TON! It's just the right size to decorate bells, trees, hats,etc...I love it!

Wedding Cheers from Laurie Schmidt

laurie 12:30 AM 1 Comments

Laurie here from Stamping Up North sharing a wedding card with you today. I love going to weddings! My favorite part is the reception and listening to all of the toasts. Some are so funny, and some of course are real tear jerkers! Either way, they are always fun and so special.

I decided to use the glasses from the Celebration die set on my "Cheers" wedding card. (The set also comes with an awesome wine bottle too.) I added some tiny flowers from the Mandy Doily die, and the tiny fanciful flourish to decorate the glass stems. The cake set has 6 pieces, and is very versatile....it can be used for birthdays or any occasion. I added a bow from the Christmas Wreath set to decorate the cake. I backed it all on a nesting doll oval, adhering some pearls here and there.

Then I added "Cheers!"

Here's a list of the dies I used:

Love Bug by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi Cheery Lynn fans, its Julie here hosting the blog today and I have made a fun card that would suit a variety of themes from passing a driving test, a Birthday or just to send love.

I started by adding all my base layers to my card and made up some Sweet Christine Flowers by folding the petals in half and pressing the flower in the centre on my Embossing mat. I added four layers and a gem into the centres and glued in place over my lace diecut strip. I just adore these flowers, they are quick to make and very effective.

My word was drop shadowed and glued in place with Silicone Glue to add extra dimension.

I added an accent onto the corner with another flower and a couple of keys cut from Gold Mirri Board.

My Hippy Mobile I cut out in patterned paper and glued in place onto white card which was fussy cut around the die cut. I added Glossy Accents onto the lights and windows, I shaded the body of the car with a Copic Pen and paper pieced my wheels and the sun visor in a co-ordinating colour.

Dream Forever by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hello Cheery Lynn Fans, it's JULIE here today hosting the blog and I am delighted to be sharing some more inspiration from our new Bohemian Collection on my Dream Forever card.

Have you noticed on Cheery Lynn's Stacker Dies you can get Stitched and Pierced details at the edges of these Dies or just left plain. I love all these extra touches of detail and when I looked at the details on my Mandala Doily, Cowboy Boots and Dreamweaver Dies I noticed all the Pierced details so I knew I wanted to use one of the sets of Pierced Stackers. I chose the Coved Rectangles and added an accent from the outer edge of my Mandala Doily at the edges.

My Cowboy Boots were cut out of Kraft Cardstock highlighting all the embossed detail with a Fineliner Pen and a little ink to age them. I layered the swirls and buckles on twice and added a brad onto the boot. Aren't they so cool !

I cut my Mandala Doily out of Kraft Cardstock and paper from Maja Design, layering it on top for contrast. Next I cut out the centre and added my Dreamweaver Die which had also been layered twice. I extended the tassels on my Dreamweaver and hid the joins with my pretty flowers.

I offset the feathers to look as if they are blowing in the wind and added some small feathers that I pulled out of a feather pillow for added texture.

I finished with lots of pearls and a sentiment.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope you manage to get some creative time this week.

Crafty Hugs,

Julie x

Aged To Perfection With Lisa Blastick

Lisa 3:30 AM 2 Comments

For the April Cheery Lynn Designs Blog Hop, please click HERE.

Hi everyone! Today, I'm sharing with you another new card made for Cheery Lynn Designs using their New Release North American and Provinces. When the DT was asked to pick out which 3 dies they wanted to design with...one of mine was originally Florida. However, several of my team wanted it too. So I thought I would change it to California since I do visit there often. As I was thinking of designing a card with California, I thought of Wine Country!

The "California" state was die cut and then I fussy cut around it in purple to stick out a bit more. I then stamped wine glasses and a sentiment on top. I also stamped some grapes and a wine bottle, they are colored with Copic markers.

The flowers are from the "sweet william strip " and the leaves are " flourish #14" I also added "tiny flourishes" for some swirls. The flowers are chalked on the edges for a tiny distressed look.

I added several pop dots behind the dies...they are addicting! lol

Thank You with Jenny Alia

Jenny Alia 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hi, it's Jenny here with a Thank You card. I love layering doilies to make cards. You can achieve so many wonderful and varied looks by stacking different doilies and stackers that you might not immediately think of combining. For this card I cut the Royal Scandinavian Boutique Stacker out of a patterned paper and backed it with a gray A2 size card. I layered the Alpine Flourish Doily on top cut with a pale gray paper. A light blue Royal Scandinavian Tag is the backing for the Thank You phrase. Thank You was cut twice and slightly offset for a shadow effect.

Last I added the floral arrangement for some added interest. If I needed a really quick last minute card, it would have worked without the flowers but I love seeing how paper flowers transform when molded with a stylus tool so I added them. I used the smaller of the two dies in the Judy's Blooms set and cut four flowers to make the two blooms. The leaves were cut using Flourish #14 and I added a few Tiny Fanciful Flourishs for interest.

Nice Little Things by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Click to Enlarge

Hi Everyone, It's Julie here hosting the blog today. With winter now just around the corner here in Scotland, I have started to feed our Garden Birds once again. This card is inspired by them and the Summer flowers that are now all disappearing.

Let me show you previous layers again on this card to make it easier to understand how I made it.

You will see I layered my French Flair Doily stackers rotating the following layer to a diamond shape and I paper pieced in my Snowflake Doily at the back.

I shaded my leaves,birds and birdbath with distress inks and my flowers were coloured with Copics.

I stamped my verse, added a little distress and accent stamping to soften the sharpness of the white card.

Good Luck to everyone entering our weekly challenge and I'll see you all next Saturday.

Copy Cat Card with Corina Finley

Corina 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Hello Everyone,

Corina here with you today with a Question!

Do you remember the card below that I posted back on Friday, July 25, 2014? The card was called Christmas in July!

Do you see the similarity between the two cards? The Card "Map" or sketch is the same. A flip of the large flower, another flower instead of the snowflake and created using a different colour palette.

I love how using the same Cheery Lynn Design dies in different colours can create spectacular results! Try doing this with a favourite card of yours!

As you can tell the Fishtail Banners are a favourite of mine! I find them so versatile. I even used pieces from the top of the largest Fishtail banner to tuck under the tears of the pattern paper.

I also mimicked the writing on the pattern paper to my Shasta Daisy flower by stamping on each layer before assembling them. Applied a little ink to the edges and a rhinestone!

So next week I am challenging myself to work with the colour pink. So make sure to check in next Friday and see what I have come up with!

Dies used:
Shasta Daisy - B310

Sweet Christine - B434

Coved Rectangle - XM-10
Scalloped Coved Rectangle - DL195
Horizon Fishtail Banners (3 Dies) - DL278

Tiny Fanciful Flourish Right & Left (Set of 2) - B387

Lace Wardrobe Style Card by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 5 Comments

Hi everyone, Julie here hosting the blog today.

I thought this week I would showcase how versatile our doilies can be in making beautiful accents and patterns on our craft projects.

The Anastasia border matches the Kiwi doily die perfectly so are great to use together, especially when making a real feature with them, like I am doing with this card.

On the opening of my card you will see the border strips, I love the lace effect. You will also see my doily cut into corners and halved. I matted and layered onto papers.

My flowers were made by cutting them out in same pale green card stock as the swirls and background but I stamped a little gesso onto them and rubbed the edges too with gesso before making them up, to give a shabby feel.

The inside of my card compliments the outside and I embellished with a few pearls to finish.

Thanks for stopping by today to see my card and Good Luck to everyone entering our Weekly Challenge.
Happy crafting this weekend and I'll see you all next Saturday.
