Joy To The World with Lisa Blastick

Hello! Hoping everyone is enjoying the holiday season. I can't believe it is already December 1st...WOW...time sure does fly by.... Today I'm sharing a new card with Cheery Lynn Designs celebrating Christmas.

I'm so in love with these colors for the holiday. I layered the wreath from Joy to the World on top of the lacy Felicity Doily. Then I placed the sentiment in the center. I made two sets of the Poinsettias in white and added gala glitz in the centers. I added gala glitz to the top of the star too.

The Santa Sleigh and Reindeer is a great piece for your die collection. I added pop dots behind the reindeer and sleigh. The Sparkle Christmas Tree and Present, I die cut in white and used a silver marker and black marker to color. The tree stump was die cut in black paper.

I used Holly Leaves in the matching paper and added tiny black stars in two corners.

Hope you enjoyed!

Thinking of You Card

Bonnie Garby 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi Cheery Lynn fans. Bonnie here today from Make Time to Craft sharing a very purple-y 'Thinking of You' card featuring some gorgeous dies from Cheery Lynn Designs.

I just LOVE purple, don't you? Add a little green for contrast and oh-la-la.

My card measures 5-1/2" x 5-1/2" and I built a few layers including a pretty layer at the bottom using white mulberry paper. I topped that with purple and green and then a piece of Distress Ink paper I made in purple with a little green and layered the Felicity Doily on that.

I then added a strip of ribbon across the center and topped that with my sentiment circle.

For the bottom half of my card, I created 3 gorgeous flowers using the Black Eyed Susan Strip. I cut the flowers out of the same Distress Ink paper and used a plum color for the centers. I created a bed of greenery using the foliage dies from the Floral Bouquet kit and added the flowers on top of that.

This flower looks so complicated, but is in fact one of the easier flowers to make. I will include my video tutorial below.

Halloween Thank You with Jenny Alia

Jenny Alia 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hello! It's Jenny posting today with a Halloween inspired Thank You card. I've been on a Halloween kick lately since I'm helping plan a large Halloween party at my children's school. I began by cutting the largest square of the Horizon Square Boutique Stacker. I glued it to a white 5.5" card that I'd cut down slightly so the scalloped edge of the die cut would show without a backer. I layered a piece of black design paper on top using foam adhesive. I then used more foam adhesive to secure the orange Felicity Doily to the front of the card.

The flowers were created using the Black Eyed Susan Strip die. I shaped them a little with a stylus and molding mat and curled the orange center with a quilling tool. The leaves are from the Crafty Ann Flourish #13 die. The leaves were colored lightly with an orange distress ink. I added some black Dandelions around the flowers too. I love using these for a little added texture in paper floral arrangements.

I tucked in white Add a flourish flourishes underneath the Felicity Doily and then glued the Thank You # 2 to the center. I waited until the end to glue the sentiment so it wasn't obscured by the flowers. Last I added a few black rhinestones randomly to the edges of the card for a little sparkle.

Elegant White on White Anniversary Card

Bonnie Garby 3:30 AM 13 Comments

Hi friends. Bonnie here from Make Time to Craft. I've been having a ball playing around with my Cheery Lynn Designs Dies. I just love that there are so many different ways to use them.

Since the Cheery Lynn Challenge theme this week is Winter Whites, I thought I would give it a go. I must say, it's really hard to do an all white card. Looking back, I can see that adding a colored image would have helped quite a bit, but since it wasn't a total fail, I thought I would share.

I started with a white 5-1/2" square card base. I then cut 4 pieces of the Ankara Lace Border. I cut the ends of each piece at a 45 degree angle to form a frame. I then topped that with a 4-1/4" square of white shimmer paper backed with some white mulberry paper. On top of that sits the Felicity Doily which is topped with mini fanciful flourishes and a beautiful Shasta Daisy. The anniversary sentiment is bracketed by two pretty little flowers from the Sweet Christine die strip with leaves from the Ivy Strip, and it's all finished off with a gorgeous double-loop, double-layer bow using White Delicate Stitched Satin and my Bow-it-All Tool from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Is this flower gorgeous or what? This Shasta Daisy Die is a MUST HAVE die if you love making paper flowers. You can whip these beautiful daisies up in no time. They are so quick and easy.

Merry Card with Corina Finley

Corina 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Hello, Corina here with you today.

I am sharing my first Christmas Card of the season with you all! I absolutely love traditional Holiday colours, the golds, silvers, reds and greens!

I used three of the Scalloped Coved Rectangle stacker dies to create the base of the card. Each die was larger than the paper layer that I cut. I placed the die so that only the right side was touching the paper - so that only the right side cut. I did this on each layer.

I cut my Felicity Doily w/ Angel Wing and cut it in half and adhered it to the left side of my card on top of my base.

I created depth and interest by layering all the foliage/greenery under my Poinsettia. Using various colours of green cardstock to distinguish each layer.

I used only the Merry from the Merry Christmas w/Tree Sentiment die. Then added red glitter glue on the die cut to make it shine!

Dies Used:

Poinsettia Strip - B324

Pine Branches - B146

Scalloped Coved Rectangle - DL195

Holly Leaves - B183

Merry Christmas w/Tree Sentiment (Set of 2) - B477

Crimped Flower Card with Corina Finley

Corina 3:30 AM 6 Comments

Hello Cheery Lynn Fans!

It is Corina here with you today and I am sharing a card that I made last night! I started off playing with flowers of course! Trying a "new to me" technique on the light brown (Tea Dye) Cherry Blossom flower.

I lightly spritz the back of each layer with water and folded/crimped each petal with my fingers. I placed each layer to the side and let it dry. I then used my styles in the center around the small hole that is die cut into each layer. This gave each layer a cupped shape and the petal edges were not flattened.

I enjoyed making them and I know I will have to experiment on the other Cheery Lynn Flower Dies.

I also used the Clocks Embossing Plate to create texture and pattern to my card base. I first took my ink pad (Tea dye) and gently tapped on to the embossing plate. Making sure that I only applied ink on to the top of the ridges - image/pattern part. I then ran it through my Big Shot. Not only is my card base embossed but it is also stamped with ink! I love this technique!

Try this technique out and enter it in NEXT weeks challenge "All about Textures" - here on the Cheery Lynn Blog. This new challenge starts on Sunday!

Sweet Christine - B434

Coffee with a Friend!

Corina 3:30 AM 9 Comments

Hello Everyone! Corina here with you again on this fabulous Friday!

Do you notice that the cards you make tend to be in the same colour palette and it is sometimes hard to create in colours that are not your favourite? I call this "CCZ" - Colour Comfort Zone! ....... Pink is 100% outside my CCZ!

I wanted my Doilies to be stacked, so I cut out three of my favourites and trimmed so they fit on top of each other. I also used my sewing machine for the first time on a card! Love the look of the zigzag and straight stitching!
