Believe by Debbie Brownmiller

It's Debbie here from Debbie's Time Out welcoming you to the CLD blog. It is nice to see you here. Today I am going to share a card with you featuring the Quadrafoil Tag and the Fleur De Lis Border from the last new release. They are both such pretty and intricate designs.

My base was started with black cardstock. I cut two pieces of mauve paper and then cut one edge on each piece with the Fleur De Lis Border Set - B680. I cut a strip of the pattern paper and layered the two pieces of mauve paper on each side of it with the cut pattern facing each other. I then layered the French Lattice Small at the top. This gave me my base that I wanted to build on.

I used the Quadrafoil Tag cut in both purple paper and white paper. I fussy cut the oval from the white which was only a couple of short easy snips. I then layered the sentiment Believe to the center of the tag. I cut another tag in purple and cut the top and bottom flourish design from it to use as my corners. This set does come with a separate flourish design but I wanted bigger corner pieces so I chose to cut them from the tag itself. For the One Free Wish fairy I cut it in three different colors. Skin tone, flower pattern paper for the dress and purple pattern patter for the wings. The glitter on the wings give her the finishing touch. I did cut the fairy from the rest of the design as well.

For the bottom left corner I used the Small Gardenia to create a beautiful flower and fussy cut some of the leaves from the paper to place under it.

Here is a closer look at the bottom half of the card showing the pretty borders.

Hello there Cheery Lynn Designs friends. Karen here, sharing

an inspirational card with you today!

Because there's quite a bit of silver shimmer, I wanted to keep

the card simple in nature, but with all the attention toward

the center highlighting three of the newest releases!!

I started by creating a 5.25 x 5.25 card base in heavy silver cardstock.

Then, I layered the silver polka dot paper, and then the blue dictionary paper!

Then, it's all about layering!! Bottom up, I used the French Pastry Doily
and two of the Pierced Stars dies (one white and one silver layer) for next layers.
Next, I layered the Peace Dove on top. Lastly, comes the sentiment Believe.
Note: I intentionally did not poke out the center part of the doily, just for
a different look! I love using heavy card stock because it really
shows off the beautiful embossing and thicker texture on the die cut!!

To top it off, I die cut four tiny Pierced Stars in silver card stock and
added them to the four corners of the card base.
That's it...simple & clean with focus toward the center layers!!

List of dies used:

DL102 French Pastry Doily

XL23 Pierced Stars

B605 Peace Dove

B612 Believe

It's "Summer Fun" for this week's challenge! Hope

you come and play along using all of your favorite Cheery Lynn dies

for a chance at winning a $20 shopping spree to the

Cheery Lynn Designs on-line store!!

Have a beautiful day!

Hugs,

Karen

Gingerbread Tree by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hi Everyone, it's JULIE here today showcasing this adorable Gingerbread Family. I love how you can dress them up, aren't they so cute !

I started off by cutting out 2 Scalloped Squares in red cardstock trimming a strip off them both to form the length of rectangle required for my 8 x 6 card. My next layer I used my die cut edge strip, gluing the layers together and adding Stickles into all the small holes. I then sprinkled a little Red Tinsel Embossing Powder over my paper and heat set for a little more sparkle.

My pot for my Tree was made using a section from my die cut Sentiment Tag. I heat embossed Red Tinsel Embossing Powder on it and my word Believe.

I started layering sections of my Build a Christmas Tree onto my card to form a large tree and added Santas Sleigh.

My Gingerbread Family were coloured with Copics and Glitter Pens, highlighting the embossed details with a white pen. The girl's bows and dresses were layered twice.

The boy's hats I used Snowtec on them adding extra fine glitter whilst still wet and a few gems for buttons.
