Happy 4th of July with Laurie Schmidt

laurie 12:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi everyone! Laurie here from Stamping Up North wishing you a Happy 4th of July!

It's time to celebrate with some of Cheery Lynn's AWESOME patriotic dies, and I have 2 cards to share with you today.

For both cards I used the Proud USA die. I cut them out and did some paper piecing.

I also adhered the letters USA from the Life's a Beach die:

Cheery Lynn Designs - Life's A Beach Sign Die - B647

Ok, I know you are wondering where I got the "U" from Life's a Beach. I cut just a bit off of the A, and turned it upside down..lol!

Then I adhered them both onto some pierced stitch and cut rectangles.

For the top card I used the Celebrate pop up die....I love to cut it off and use it for a sentiment.

For the bottom card I used the Chevron plate as a fun background.

Nautical Thank You by Jenny Alia

Jenny Alia 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi friends! I'm back today sharing a new card. I seem to be making simpler looking cards lately with less layers and I'm always looking for a way to spice them up. I love the way CAS cards look when done right but I struggle with them.

This card was made by using the Chevron die as a stencil. I used different colors of ink sponging gradually from lighter to darker. Then I mounted the frame I cut using the Rectangle Pierce & Cut die. I cut the center out of the rectangle using the next smaller die in the set. Thank You was cut twice and glued together for a little more substance. One of the seahorses was mounted with foam tape for dimension. The shells were cut out of a cream cardstock. The main design was then glued to a light blue card.

Veterans Day with Lisa Blastick

Lisa 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hi, welcome back to another clean and simple card with Cheery Lynn Designs.

Since today is Veterans Day, I wanted to send out a "Thank You" to all our soldiers who have fought for our freedom.

I used 3 die cuts to make this card....so you can make several and personalize the centers. I added pop dots behind the blue square and star. Then stamp any sentiment you like in black ink. Ta Da!

Thank you for stopping by today and be sure to give thanks to a Veteran.

Have a great day!

Hugs Lisa

For Someone Special by Jenny Alia

Jenny Alia 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi crafty peeps! I recently bought a few sheets of glitter paper and wanted to try cutting flowers. I used my new Big Sister machine and despite the thickness of the glitter paper the flowers and sentiment cut beautifully.

I used a few of my newer dies on this card. I just love the pierced detail on these Mehndi Botanicals, they are so fun! I cut the flower three times and layered it before adding the rhinestone center. I also double layered the For Someone Special die to add more contrast so it would stand out against the Chevron background. The Chevron frame was cut out of black paper and adhered to a white background. I added pink behind it and then glued it to the front of a white card.

Love the Here and Now Card with Bonnie Garby

Bonnie Garby 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi there everyone. Bonnie here today from Make Time to Craft. This time I'm sharing a card I made featuring the wonderful Chevron A2 Frame and the Floral Bouquet Die Kit from Cheery Lynn Designs. I just LOVE a pink, white and kraft color combo, don't you?

I started with an A6 (4-3/4" x 6-1/2") card base. Then I cut a piece of white and a piece of kraft cardstock at 4-1/4" x 5-1/2". I added Stick-It Adhesive to the back of each piece and then cut both pieces with the Chevron A2 Frame die. I then paper pieced the chevron stripes together and trimmed to 3-3/8" x 5-1/8". Then I layered that onto kraft, dark pink, lt pink, and dark pink cardstock trimming a small border on each layer. Then I ran a piece of hot pink delicate stitched satin across the middle securing on the back of this panel. I then added a layer of white mulberry paper. I wet the edges and tore it to create a feathery edge. Then I adhered this panel to the card base.

I stamped my sentiment on white cardstock and die cut with an oval die. I layered that on dark pink and kraft cardstock and white mulberry paper on the bottom - each with a small border. For my butterfly, I adhered a piece of Stick It Adhesive to the front side of the pink cardstock and die cut the butterfly. Then I peeled the protective covering and applied White Glitter and finished the center with flat back pearls.

My flowers were created using the Floral Bouquet Kit. The flower petals were shaped with a large stylus tool and I created a base with several of the foliage dies.

Cheery Lynn Dies Used:

FRM155 Chevron A2 Frame

M-7 Oval Classic Small Silver Stacker

XM-7 Oval

B777 Floral Bouquet Kit

DL-112AB Small Exotic Butterflies

My bi-color bow was created using my Bow-it-All Tool with Pearl Pink and Hot Pink Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Imagine with Jenny Alia

Jenny Alia 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi, Jenny here today. I am enjoying playing with the May new release background dies. Today I'm sharing another way they can be used. For this card I cut a piece of stencil plastic with the Chevron die. Then I used my new stencil with a white crackle paste to create the subtle background. I sprinkled silver and gold chunky glitter and mica powders on the paste while it was wet.

Imagine was cut out of gold shimmer paper. The white layer was matted onto silver and then a light blue A2 card. The Sakura flower was colored with distress ink and Copic markers, I used glitter glue and a clear gloss to embellish the flowers. Last, I added a gem to the center of the large flower. The flower was adhered to the paper with double sided foam adhesive.

Thank You by Eva Dobilas

Eva 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi there, this is Eva and I have a fun card to share with you today. I created this with our new dies, which I love. Here is how I made it.

To start out my card I cut an A2 sized card base out of white card stock. Next I die cut a Chevron A2 Frame out of a card stock base and painted it in with water colors and adhered it to the card base. After that I die cut the Thank You Circle out of black card stock, and also die cut one of the Scalloped LG Stackers Nesting Dies to back up the sentiment die and adhered it to the card front. Than I die cut my flowers and leaves from the Floral Bouquet Kit Die Set and created my floral bouquet and added it to my card.

Hope you like this happy little card and here are the dies I used to create it with:

FRM155 - Chevron A2 Frame

B781 - Thank You Circle

B777 - Floral Bouquet Kit Die Set

XL-5 - Scalloped LG Stackers Nesting Dies

Thank you for stopping by and hope to see your cards in our newest challenge.

Hugs,

Eva

Thank You Card by Bonnie Garby

Hi everyone. Bonnie from Make Time to Craft here today with a fun summery card featuring several of the May New Release dies from Cheery Lynn Designs.

I am super LOVING this new Chevron A2 Frame die. I love the design and I also love the fact that it's a 2-piece die so you can either cut the chevron and then cut it out in A2 card size to use it on a card base or you can use just the chevron part to cut the actual front panel and have the 'peek-a-boo' effect on the front. I'll share a card done like that soon.

For my Cheery Blossom flower cluster I cut out three layers. The base is green and then I cut the flowers and buds from red and the flower centers from white. I layered all the colors and attached the flower cluster to the bottom of my card.

B781 Thank You Circle Sentiment *NEW*

FRM155 Chevron A2 Frame *NEW*

B775 Cherry Blossom *NEW*

M-4 Circle Classic Sm Silver Stacker

XM-4 Circle

XL-21 Pierced Stacker #3

The beautiful bow was created using ribbons from the May Ribbon Club Assortment from Really Reasonable Ribbon. The Ribbon Club theme for May is Patriotic colors. The bow was created on my Bow-it-All V3.0.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Don't forget, there is still time to enter our current 'Red, White and Blue' themed challenge for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate to Cheery Lynn Designs.

You're the Best by Jenny Alia

Jenny Alia 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi, it's Jenny posting today with some quick cards I made using the new May Release dies. Thank you so much for leaving all the lovely comments on my blog during the hop last week. I also enjoyed reading the comments on the Cheery Lynn Blog about everyone's favorite die. I thought I'd share some of my new favorites with you: the Chevron A2 Frame and the new sentiments dies.

This card was made using only three dies and it's so easy to replicate in different ways. I cut the chevron background die in white and mounted it to an A2 top fold card. I then colored another piece of card stock with red and pink inks and cut that with the chevron die. I glued the colored strips into the negative areas and glitter was sprinkled on the white areas. Below are some other examples of cards using many of the same dies. These were made for my son's teacher and assistant teachers. The chevron can be used with or without the negative pieces. The card on the right uses pieces from the center and left cards to create the blue and black pattern.

My eight year old daughter and I made these Birthday cards for friends. She made the butterfly card. I helped add the glitter glue to the butterfly wings but she did the rest on her own. The card on the left is the Chevron background from the pink strips I used on the first example card at the top of this post.
