For You Card with Cheryl Walker

Hello crafty friends and Happy Thursday to you all! Cheryl here with a sweet card created for Cheery Lynn Designs using the darling Cats. I LOVE their tails and how they make a heart shape around the sentiment. Also used several other Cheery Lynn dies, and I will list them below for you.

On my card I started by cutting out both the cats in 2 different design papers, then used perfect pearls over them both to give some glitz to both kitties. Next I added a sweet little flower to the left one, and it's from the Tiny Flower Kit die. I also made up the flowers from the same die using pink paper, used perfect pearls to them, and added a viva pearl dot to the center of each. The greenery was distressed with green ink and then colored with perfect pearls green. Then I added the branches using the wreath strip.

The brown frame is from the Mirror Mirror Doily Frame, and then the white was also cut using the same die set. I distressed the white one with pink ink.

Fancy Bird House Card with Cheryl Walker

Cheryl Walker 1:30 AM 0 Comments

Hello crafty friends and Happy Tuesday to you all!
Today I have a super sweet card I created using Cheery Lynn Dies, and some Vintage Lace papers. Love the Bird House, it's absolutely gorgeous! I decided to just distress it a little and add some Viva Pearls to decorate it a bit.

The card base is 5 3/4" x 5 3/4" and is a cream card stock. Next I added layers of the Vintage Lace design papers and card stock.

For the greenery I used Cheery Lynn's Olive Branches, Flourish #1, Flourish # 3, and Tiny Flowers kit for all the flowers. Love how small they are, and I think they go perfectly with this beautiful bird house. I did add some Stickles to the centers of each of the flowers, and distressed each flower using a blue ink.

The bird house was cut using the coordinating design paper, and then backed with the same blue card stock. I distressed the bird house using a blue ink, and did that lightly, as to not overpower the beauty of the birdhouse. Next I decided to add some pearl dots using the Viva Pearl pen.

Basket for Mom

Maggi 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Well this should have been an Easter basket but I'm a day late and a dollar short as they say, so I turned it into a Mother's Day basket filled with my Mom's favorite chocolates! She'll love it!

To start my design, I used Coved Rectangle Stitch Nesting Set - SM Silver Stitch Nesting Set 6 Piece Die Set - MS10 to cut panels for the front and back of the basket. I just cut rectangles for the side panels and used a corner chomper to memic the coved corner on the front panels. Then I added Border #7 Die - CABRD7 in the center. I cut a little tag with the smallest of the Horizon Fishtail Banners 3 Piece Die Set - DL278 and stamped a simple greeting.

I used several different flower dies (listed below) to make the flowers that embellish the front and back panels. I always like to tuck in a few leaves to my floral clusters and one of my favorite dies for making leaves is Flourish Leaf Strip 5 Piece Die Set - B178.

The handle is "gussied up" with more flowers, a seam binding ribblon and beautiful flourishes cut with Flourish #1 Die - CAFLRS1.

On this side view you can really see how pretty that leafy flourish looks cascading down the side. The papers I used are from Graphic 45's DCE Once Upon a Springtime. The pinks and greens are perfect for this springy Mom's Day project don't you think?

That's it for me today! What are you making for your Mom for Mother's Day?

A Mother's Day card with Maggi

Maggi 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Here's a pretty card for Mom with a hidden greeting that you could change for any occasion. There's a tag hidden under the image that pulls out. You can see the hidden tag in the next photo. I've use some Maja Designs paper with bright white cardstock.

I used a couple of layers of Maja Designs Enjoying the Outdoors paper along with the bright white cardstock. The striped background layer was cut with French Flair Pierce And Cut Tool . Then I cut a layer with Quadrafoil Square Doily 2 Piece Die Set and tucked it in the top left corner. Over the top of that, I layered an image from the design paper. The little tag that I stamped my sentiment on is also from the design papers.

I used Cherry Blossom 2 Piece Die Set to make the flowers. I just shaped them a little bit and stacked two layers together and topped with some fun pink bling.

I used Flourish #1 Die underneath the flowers to give the appearance of a vine winding its way up the side.

Create Flowers by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 4 Comments

Hi Everyone, It's JULIE here today and now that the Christmas season is over I thought it would be nice to make a card filled with summery flowers.

My card has lots of layers, tattering at the edges, adding Frantage Powders and tucking in doily accents. My inverted scalloped edge was made using a piece of waste paper and cutting out a scalloped square.

My Watering Can was painted with Pewter Distress Paint and adding some Archival Ink for shading. I then added a little Grass to the base and on the top of the Watering Can I shaded with a Pale Blue pen and added Glossy Accents for a watery look.

I cut out 2 of my Leafy Flourishes, placing one on my card, the other I cut into sections and placed into my design with my Flowers which have Flower Soft added to their centres.

Baby Book by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi Everyone, it's JULIE here today and I am sharing with you a decorated cover for a Baby Book using one of our fab new Memory Book dies. There are many different designs and Mike Dywan has kindly made a video to explain how you make these which you can view HERE.

I decided I wanted a semi hardback cover to my book so initially glued a sheet of paper to a lightweight GreyBoard and then die cut my spine and cover.

Next I die cut out single sheets of paper and glued to the inside of my front and back covers. The three layers together would have been too much for the die cutting machine to cut but took the two together with ease.

I rubbed ink around the edges of my die cuts before gluing together to form my book. I cut out the spine once again in white card and stamped the name Kirsty into the hearts and re- inserted them into the spine.

For my flowers I pressed a little ink onto the White Cardstock and then sprayed with a little water. I squeezed each petal into the finished shape shown and dried with my heat gun, then added a fancy pearl button to the centre.

My image was coloured with Copics and I added a little ink to the frame whilst my die was in place to leave a white border around it.

A view of the inside with blank white pages.

My Pennant die I cut out in patterned and white cardstock. I used the waste part of the White die cut to mount onto my flags for a double layer and used the little Hearts that had come out the border edge strip of my book, finishing off by stamping on the word Baby.

Winter Wedding by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Hi Everyone, It's JULIE here today. Winter is fast approaching now in Scotland and a lot of people like to have a Winter Wedding in hope of some snow. So I thought it would be nice to share some inspiration for a Wedding card to give in the Winter with soft wintry shades.

Here is a photograph of my first few layers. I tore my paper and inked at the edges with Spun Sugar and cut my doilies in half, placing them behind the cardstock.

I now added my leaf flourish and also cut and pieced another leaf flourish on to my card.

My words were layered for a shadow effect and I added an extra layer on to my banner by fussy cutting and tattering the edges.

My flowers were made using the Sweet Christine die. I added a little gem in to the centres and also made some small buds using the same die to add some more interest on to my bouquet.
