Hello Greeting Card by Ginny Nemchak

3:00 AM 0 Comments



Hey there Peeps! Ginny here dropping in to share a sweet little greeting card. I'm embracing a CAS style with graphic colors and dimensional flowers.  This is an A2 sized card cut from black cardstock with coral and white layered on top.
I created a texture for the background by cutting several sets of Flowers in white and adhering them to a white background.  Then I inset another layer of just white bordered with the coral and black. This gave me a solid base to attach the Flourish and Cherry Blossom Flowers.
This simple Hello sentiment makes this card perfect for any occasion.
Okay these Cherry Blossom flowers are making me all kinds of happy. Once cut they were shaped and stacked and topped off with the leftover pieces from the background and a sweet little gray pearl.  This is a small bow for me..but it's perfectly suited to finish off this card : )

Okay that's all for me. Wishing all of you a happy and productive day with lots of time to be creative : ) G

Yellow Rose Greeting Card by Ginny Nemchak

3:00 AM 1 Comments

Hey there Paper Peeps! Ginny here to share a card I created with the fabby Cheery Lynn Designs Dies, layered patterned papers and a little mixed media. This card starts with an A2 sized card base with a generous amount of texture paste embossing. Then the layering begins....lots of patterns separated by solids, additional dies for texture, Stickles, vintage buttons and trim.

This lovely flower is created with the Rose and Leaves Die. A little bending and pulling and it took a nice shape then I filled in some of the gaps with Mercury Glass Stickles.  There's more glitter on the leaves as well.
In the very background I've added a Mirror Mirror Doily Frame cut from white cardstock. For the focal section there's a French Pastry Doily cut from the patterned paper. I love the script. This doily was too wide for where I wanted to put it so I clipped a small bit of the side off....and flipped around the extra little piece and layered  it on as well. You can never have enough layers!
Adding the Fanciful Flourish Left die cut from white helps to fill the space and create the illusion of a larger flower arrangement.
I created a little more texture for the background with the Lattice Die glued down to the patterned paper and trimmed to size.
I'm not going to go as far as saying this card is monochromatic....but it's low contrast makes it seem very vintagy and dreamy.

Welcome to the Jungle By Ginny Nemchak

3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hey there Peeps! Ginny here and I'm dropping in to share a walk on the wild side.  I love this card with it's warm colors and layering.
I cut a 6 1/2 x 5 inch card base from black cardstock then layered on several sizes of the Rectangle Stitch and Cut Die  in different patterns and stacked them up with black borders. I've also tucked in a Swedish Spring Oval Frame cut from the same black cardstock.
I was able to add texture with the Gauze Border cut from straw colored paper.  These flowers are not "tropical" like the bird...but I think they look fabby when cut from the Graphic 45 Safari Adventure papers.....they match perfectly. I'm using the Tea Rose Medium and Small Gardenia over the Fanciful Flourish Left.
I swapped out the center pieces from the Tea Rose for bisque  colored pearl gems. To work in a bit of extra pattern there's a few Horizon Fishtail Banners tucked in.
These strong paper patterns really needed a bold ribbon choice so I added a half of a loopy bow of black with white dots.  Along with the die cut leaves I fussy cut a few leaves from the patterned paper and gave them a bit of a bendy shape and tucked them in with the flowers to fill in the arrangement. A few added bits like the large clip  and metal eylet are great finishing touches.

Follow Your Dreams

3:00 AM 4 Comments


Hi friends!  It's Holly posting today, and this is my last guest designer post for Cheery Lynn Designs.  I have truly enjoyed creating my projects to share with you this month, and I hope you found some inspiration from my pieces.  Many thanks to Bj and to Sandy for asking me to be a guest designer and for helping me out.  For my final project, this piece really speaks to my heart.  I was able to follow my dream this month as a guest designer, and it has been a blast.  

I used the following dies on my project:


I covered the Hinges with Tarnished Brass Distress Stain, let them dry, and then lightly sanded them for that vintage look.  I cut out the Sweet Williams flowers from white paper, rolled the edges of the petals into a peach-colored ink pad, curled the petals with tweezers and then assembled them with a small antique brass brad.  I sponged the same peach colored ink onto the Black Eyed Susan flower petals and then curled the petals with tweezers before assembling the flower.

Here's hoping you have fun following your dreams!  Thanks for visiting with me this month!

Vellum Leaves

3:00 AM 6 Comments

Hi again!  It's Holly posting today as the guest designer for February, and I've got a delicate card to share with you.  I had this idea in mind for several weeks, but I didn't want to add any greenery because it would clash with the colors I had in mind..  Then it hit me - vellum!  By cutting out all the leaves and flourishes with vellum, it gives my card a sweet and delicate look.

I've used the following Cheery Lynn Designs dies on this card:


Try using some vellum for some of your die cut pieces on a project.  It's a great way to enhance the look of your project without changing your entire color scheme.  Thanks for visiting with me today!  I hope to see you again next Friday.  :-)
