I have a pretty shabby card to share.
Lots of die cut layers with dimension.
Other than that, some ribbons and inking for aging and I was done.

Birthday Wishes Card

Hello Cheery Lynn Peeps! Got another card for you today using several fantastic dies. I created a fun birthday card.....perfect for a New Year birthday. I used Birthday Wishes circle die for my sentiment and layered it on top of both the Birthday Cake shaker die set and the clock (steampunk)series set,
I added ribbons and mini gold sequins that I randomly placed here and there inside the cake die.
I just love all that dimension you get when you add foam adhesive and layer several of your dies up.
For a bit more interest I used the Quatrofoil A2 frame 2 die as my background paper.

Hi ya Cheery Lynn peeps! Cherry here with a fun little card for you today. Most
of us know someone who is unlucky enough to have their birthday right in
the middle of winter.....like me. Yep mine is in December. So I came
up with a Wintry Birthday card that is sure to cheer someone up.
I
added a little ribbon and lace and was done! Of course this die could
be used for Christmas but also for Winter and switch it up even more and
use it as a birthday card! Hope you like! Enjoy, cherry
I used two different dies. Both the Winter Neighborhood border die and the
Clock (steampunk series) die set. They are both very versatile dies. I love them!
I let the die cuts tell their story......so much fun to let them take center stage.
I added some buttons, berries, and cabochons to middle of card.
I just had to cut one little ol' tree and add it here to the button....it was too cute to throw away!

Hello & Happy Friday!
Corina here with you today, to share with you a card background that I created using Watercolour paper, Distress Inks and a Cheery Lynn Design Embossing Plate.
I absolutely love to create texture and depth on my cards. This is a technique that I had fun doing and there are so many possibilities. Try a variety of Cheery Lynn Embossing Plates with different colour combinations -the skies the limit!
I used the mini Distress inks for the convenience of the smaller pad. I could apply the inks directly to small sections of the Old Brick Embossing plate.
I then spritzed my Watercolour paper and my inked Embossing plate with water. I applied the Watercolour paper spritzed side down, on top of the inked embossing plate. I then ran it through my Die Cut machine on the appropriate settings for normal embossing.
If you place a piece of paper towel under your Embossing plate while you emboss with your Die cut machine, it will soak up your excess water and you will have less mess to clean!
As you can see from the picture above, the embossed Old Brick shows up great!
I wanted a more dramatic look so I gently rubbed my Fired Brick Distress Ink over only the top embossed layer. I then spritzed with water to blend the Distress Inks.
I then repeated this last step with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. Above is a close up of the texture these steps created! Love it!
The card was made up from a variety of Cheery Lynn Dies. I created a Sweet William flower to bring the background colour to the forefront. I added silver paint to the music notes, gears and key to tie in my embossed stamped sentiment.
I also would like to point out the Border of Circle cut outs on the bottom of my card. That is from the New Release Deutschland Border Set. This border strip die cuts the small circles and also perforates a line of dots, above and below the circles for wonderful detail!

Sweet Williams - D137

Happy Monday Cheery Lynn Designs friends! It's Rhonda here to host the blog today.
This weekend was a big step forward in the direction of Spring for us here in the United States. We observed Daylight Savings Time where some of us move our clocks forward an hour and gain a bit more sunshine in the later part of our day.
This weekend was a big step forward in the direction of Spring for us here in the United States. We observed Daylight Savings Time where some of us move our clocks forward an hour and gain a bit more sunshine in the later part of our day.
In honor of this event, today's project theme is… time!
You can see the de-bossed background kraft paper that I used a bit of pink ink on. To achieve the effect, I simply rubbed my pink chalk ink lightly onto the raised metal embossing plate, then embossed per usual. (Be careful not to press down or you'll have more smudge marks than you might want.)
The effect was a subtle pattern with a hint of color.
I've layered our Pocket Watch with the Ship's Compass, then added the Sentiments Frame #2 on top of those. I did trim off the directional stations from the compass, and kept the flourish to use under the 12. The relief hearts from the Frills and Hearts Border and the clock hands from the Pocket Watch were re-purposed as random embellishments to add a touch of whimsy.

Hi there! It's me Gabrielle here with you all again today to share my second project for the month with you as Cheery Lynn's guest designer! I had a lot of fun using the Clock w/Angel Wings die last week in a steampunk design. But I thought it would be cool to show how versatile this die is for other designs as well. In my l/o above I changed up the look of the clock a little by adding some flower accents to the middle of the clock design, playing up a more feminine design for the page.
I used the Sweet Williams die to make the the cream color flowers in the center of the clock. I created a flower bud for the center using a couple of the smallest cuts from this flower die and then layered a few of the next sizes up (giving them a little water misting and a wrinkle) for the other layers.
I made a heart embellishment for the page using the Celtic heart die on white cardstock and then with a pencil marked out the heart design on some patterned paper from Maja Design to create an underlayer for the heart.
I often like to create a counter balance on my page design, for this page I put a lattice design in the top left corner. I used the Lattice 2 die and gave it a random angle cut to appear like broken lattice. I then finished the design with more of the Sweet Williams blooms and using portions of the Ivy Corner Flourish dies.
TIP: I wanted to attach my lattice so that it stands away from the page a bit, but felt that adhesive foam dots can be a little tricky to apply to finer cuts and might be a little to thick. So I used some 3D paint like Perfect Pearls to the back of the die cut piece. When dry, I added some adhesive to the dried perfect pearls and stuck it to my page. This gave my lattice just enough 3D effect that I was going for.

Hi there! It's me, Gabrielle Pollacco here with you today with my first project for this month as Guest Designer here at Cheery Lynn Designs! I've been admiring the beautiful new steampunk designs CL came out with recently so I'd been itching to try a mixed media style journal cover using a few of the new die cuts. I was thinking to make a 'diary' style journal, something that would be handled more as opposed to an 'art journal', so I wanted to get a nice embossed look to the cover and not go too 3D with the embellishing. So using the CL steampunk die cuts seemed like the perfect solution to getting that subtle embossed design for my cover.
I thought I would record my process as I created the cover so that you all could watch the process, I always think a visual is sometimes a lot easier to follow than writing down the instructions, right? So grab yourself a cup of coffee (or tea) and take out a few minutes to watch the process :)
I hope you enjoyed my video tutorial! Here are a few close-up photos of the cover design as well as a photo of the back of the cover....

Hi and Good Morning everyone, Alison here today! :) I hope you all had a wonderful christmas, and have many memories to treasure.
My card today is inspired by New Year, and I used some of the gorgeous Steampunk Dies by Cheery Lynn Designs, and I think they look very classy and effective in gold card! My husband actually wanted to turn this card into a clock for the wall :)
I started off with a 6 x 6 inch blank card base and layered black bazzil card and gold mirri card. I cut some stunning gears and layered them behind French Flair stackers and scalloped stackers, and then cut out the Steampunk Clock. The gold card shows the intricacy and clarity that this die cuts, its just super-sharp and the tiny bits just fell out. The clock was layered onto more black card, and raised by foam pads. I added gold studs for a jewelled clock effect.
All dies used on this card are:
Thanks so much for visiting our blog today, and I would like to wish you and your families all the very best for a happy and prosperous New Year.
Have a smashing week,

Hi and Good Morning! :) Alison here today sharing a card made inspired some of the amazing Cheery Lynn Designs Steampunk Dies!
I used a 6 x 6 inch blank card base and layered black bazzil card and MME paper, inking the edges slightly with DI.
I then cut the stunning Steampunk Clock die in metallic black and stainless steel card, and shadowed it for effect. The image is a Kenny K digi stamp and she was coloured in PM's and backed with Steampunk Wings. I matted and layered onto Circle Stacker and Scalloped circle stacker.
The Gears were also cut in a mix of silver and black and layered and fastened together with silver brads for a finishing touch.
All dies used on this card are:
B357 - Clock with Angel Wing - Steampunk
B340 - Gears
B359 - Steampunk Wings
XL-5 - Scalloped circle stackers
L-4 - Circle Stackers
