Thank You by Jenny Alia

Hi, it's Jenny here on the blog today. I decided to challenge myself by creating a card using mostly scraps. I found the pink and gray papers in my scrap bin along with these flowers and once my colors were set, the card came together.

I trimmed the pink papers and backed them with a black mat before adhering it to a 5.5" card. The gray circle was a scrap from a Halloween card I made and was already cut using a Cheery Lynn Classic Circle die. I popped it up with double sided foam tape. The pin flowers were created using probably my favorite flower dies, the small and large Gardenia's. The larger one has a fine shimmer from a glitter spray. The edge of the yellow Tea Rose was dipped in a dark pink ink pad.

To complete and complement the flowers I added white branches and black flourishes.

Let Life Surprise You by Julie Lavalette

Hi everyone, It's JULIE hosting today and I am showcasing the wonderful new Rooster and the Floral Bouquet Kit which has beautiful flowers and amazing foliage dies in the set.

As you can see I decided to turn my Rooster into a Weather Vane, so let me take you through my steps.

In this photograph I had embossed the two middle sections and the right hand rooster on my mat to fluff out the feathers. Layering them onto my flat die cut rooster.

I finished off with a complete Rooster on the top Layer.

This photograph shows the elements I cut out from the Ships Compass, you will see I also cut the letter 'S' so I could have it in a different position on my Weather Vane. I also painted a Barbecue Skewer with Black Gesso and used two arrows from my fun with arrows set trimming the point off one and the tail part off the other.

I then hid my join behind the Barbecue Skewer.

My floral arrangement I added Glossy accents to my Berries and my yellow flowers have Flowersoft in the centres.

I finished my card off with steampunk corners, touches of bling and small dried cream flowers.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and the continued comments you leave, I love reading them. You still have time to enter our Current Challenge - Lots of Layers to win a $20 shopping spree here at Cheery Lynn Designs. Good luck to all entering.

Happy Easter by Julie Lavalette

Happy Easter Weekend to all our lovely followers. It's JULIE here today hosting the blog. Thanks so much to everyone for stopping by my own Blog for our current Blog Hop, I was overwhelmed with all your lovely comments. This week I have made a Spring card filled with Easter inspiration.

I started by layering 2 layers of paper onto my base card adding Stickles at the edge for a touch of sparkle. I layered on part of my doily as an accent, this helped my Basket pop from the design against the busy floral paper.

My Happy Easter was layered twice for a shadow effect, adding my branches and flowers which had been shaded with Copics.

My sweet Easter Chicks were shaded with Distress Inks. I coloured their feet and beaks with Copics and finished them by adding a little black liquid pearls onto their eye. Mounting them onto the Grass Border Strip.

My Basket I die cut in purple cardstock and then used our Special Effects technique demonstrated HERE to get the background. Layering in my Eggs with a touch of Silicone Glue and adding a little Satin Bow.

Thanks for stopping by today and good luck to everyone entering our Current Challenge - Anything Goes and please check out our current Blog Hop HERE.

Crafty Hugs,
