Merry and Fabulous Christmas Card by Amy Voorthuis

3:30 AM 2 Comments
Goodmorning lovely Cheery Lynn Fans,
It's with a sad heart that I am writing this post as this will be my last project made as a design team member for this amazing company. I've been a DT member for the last four years {with a little break in between} so I am going to miss being here for sure but it's time to move on and make space for some new talents. For my last project I made a Christmas card and most of you know I don't tend to make those very often. But since this post will be just before Christmas I thought wel why not. So here we go my last card.....

Merry and Fabulous Christmas:
 This card was yet again made with the lovely new "Joyous Winterdays" by Maja Design I am so hooked on this collection. It's a very tall card 8,3 inches by 4,2 inches because I wanted to use straws on it and I love tall cards.


 I got introduced by Cheery Lynn Designs dies about six years ago and the DL184 - Sophias Heart Doily was my first die I ever used. So I wanted to use it on my last card as a lovely memory....with that die I got accepted on the DT too......
Cheery Lynn Designs dies used: 
DL303 - Pierced Banners {set of 3}
DL184 - Sophias Heart Doily
SF-6 - Stacker Flower #6
B183 - Holly Leaves Strip
B257 - Cutie Fringe #3

Thank you so much for visiting the blog today and for believing in me all those years!
Cheery Lynn Designs YOU ROCK!!!

Have a wonderful day hugs and kisses.....and a Merry Christmas too all.

Great Joy Magical World 8x8 Layout by Amy Voorthuis

3:30 AM 0 Comments
Good morning Cheery Lynn Fans.
I am so happy you are here with me today. I have a 8x8 layout to show you all made with the lovely Maja Design's "Joyous Winter Days" papers and some of my precious Cheery Lynn dies. I wanted to create a winter landscape with that cute picture I used. 

Great Joy Magical World: 
First, I spayed with white colored spray on my background and then I inked the edges with gesso and dark ink. Then I added a star stencil on my background. The flowers were already prepared so I added them too after I placed the picture. 


After that I cut our a whole bunch of leaf dies to add them to my flower clusters....and this time I did not add any snow elements because I thought it looked snowy enough. This was a really fun layout to make.

All That Glitters 8x8 Layout by Amy Voorthuis

3:30 AM 2 Comments
    Good morning lovely Cheery Lynn Fans.
Today it's me again to show you a 8x8 layout using some older dies but also some of the newer ones. For this layout I used the pretty new "Joyous Winterdays"collection by Maja Design but also some other collections by Maja as well. 

All That Glitters: 
I love adding layers to my work so this layout is created with four without counting the layers underneath the picture. The vintage dies by Cheery Lynn are by far the best dies to use on a layout as well as their flower dies which I totally LOVE.....


To finish my layout I added some snow here and there and also some white & shimmer spray to make it sparkle a bit but you don't see that so much on my layout sadly.

Bliss Card by Amy Voorthuis

  Good morning Cheery Lynn Fans.
Today it's my turn again on this lovely blog and this time I have a quick and easy card for you to show. I just love the window frames Cheery Lynn Designs offers so in my last allotment I got the one I used on this card. 

Bliss:   
The flowers where prepaired two cards back and I had some left that I used on this card. For my card I used leftover papers by 49 and Market from several collection. I just love it when you can make  cards from scraps you have left from making a layout.

Rusty Autumn Welcome Card by Amy Voorthuis

2:30 AM 0 Comments
Good morning Cheery Lynn Fans.
Today I am back to share another card with you.  This time it's a very busy and rustic card. The card was made with leftover papers from the pretty NEW "Rusty Autumn" collection by 49 and Market. This collection is just perfect for these type of cards I hope you think so too.

Rusty Autumn Welcome:

This was such a fun card to make I love adding and adding to my work that sometimes it gets very busy but then I still like it. I also love CAS cards but I'm not so good at making those.  Lisa does that much better then me. lol

Thanks Card by 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.

You are Strong {hopeful} card by Amy Voorthuis

3:30 AM 0 Comments
Good morning lovelies. 
How nice of you to visit the blog.  Today it's my turn again to show you what I made using my precious Cheery Lynn Designs dies. This time I went for a card with some of the flower dies Cheery Lynn Designs offers {I love making my own flowers}. For this card I used the pretty NEW "Rose Quartz" collection by Prima Marketing and some of the Maja Design card stock for making the pink flowers. 

You are Strong:
I was inspired by pink ribbon, because in the Formula 1 {yes I watch that ;-)} they made some pink highlights in the cars which I thought was amazing. In the centers of the flowers I added some metal embellishments and I also used some flairs by Cuts2luv. To finish my card I added some leaves, prills {those little pink beads}, dewdrops and a bow of thread.

Dutch Christmas Greetings Card by Amy Voorthuis

3:30 AM 0 Comments
Good morning Cheery Lynn Fans.
I am very excited that you are here with me on Friday the 13th...do you believe in myths? Me not so much, but I never walk under a ladder. Today I'd like to show you a Christmas card.  Yes, you read it correct, a Christmas card from me and I did not fall or hit my head. I just felt like it. Call the papers!!! lol.....For this card I used the pretty "I Wish"collection by Maja Design. 

Kerstige Groetjes: {Christmas Greetings}

This time I wanted to used the Poinsettia Strip as a focal point on my card so I cut that strip out six times and layered them to make the flowers. I first cut out every die I wanted to use on my card to later on add them to my background. I used the traditional Christmas colors for this card hope you like it.

Autumn's Loveliest Smile Card by Amy Voorthuis

3:30 AM 0 Comments
Good morning Cheery Lynn Fans.
Autumn is upon us again and here where I live the weather is showing us all the beauty of it! Falling leaves and changing colors but also my least favorite part, the heavy wind and the rainy days. Today is a day like that and it's my day off work but it is a day to stay in bed under the warm covers....  For today I'd like to share an Autumn card with you all using almost all the leaf dies Cheery Lynn Designs offers.

Autumn's Loveliest Smile: 

For this card I used all Maja Design papers from different collections but mostly "Walking in the Forest"! All the dies I used where cut out a couple of weeks back but I never used them. I am hooked on Cheery Lynn's leaf dies because you can use them for every occasion and this time it's an Autumn card. It was really hard to take a picture because it is very windy today and I take all my pictures outside....and my card almost flew away haha. lol


Cheery Lynn Designs dies used:
CAFLRS-14 - Flourish #14
B241 - Rose Leaf Strip
B178 - Flourish Leaf Strip
B147 - Olive Branches
B146 - Pine Branches
