Beautiful Day Card with Cheryl Walker

Hello crafty friends and Happy Wednesday to you all! Today I have a super fun and sweet card made using Cheery Lynn's sweet Whimsical Lion die along with a few others as well. Love how cute this little guy is.

For the lion, I cut him out twice in white card stock, and then dusted his body with ink and then colored his mane with Copic markers E55 & YR24. Next I added some pink colored pieces of card stock behind his ears. The black for the eyes was colored with marker and then I added Viva Pearl pen in black to give a 3-D look for the eyes. The nose I colored a gray, and then glued to the back of the face like I did the eyes.

The sentiment was stamped in black using JustRite Papercrafts stamps and the Mini Misti stamping tool. Design papers - I'm not sure who they are by, as those are from my stash, and didn't have any name on them. Lately I've been pulling from OLD OLD papers and scraps, trying to use some different colors and such.

For the doily I used Cheery Lynn's French Pastry Doily die, along with the Horizon Circle die and then the Circle Cut and Pierce die, all layered up.

Corner dies were cut using a green card stock, and is from the BD-17 Corners die. Lastly I added a bow using ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon, and then some of their flower embellishments.

Merry Christmas Dear Friends from Maggi

Hi there Cheery Lynn fans! First I'm sending wishes that your holidays are merry and bright and filled with love of family, friends and good food! Cheers to you all.!

WOW, there are only a few more days left and I still have gifts to wrap, shopping to do and cookies to bake! But what the heck, I have to take some "me time" out of my schedule to keep my sanity so I put this pretty card together using lots of Cheery Lynn Designs dies and Graphic 45's new Seasons collection.

This is an easel card and they really are simple to make. Now I got a little fancy with the die cut at the top and that does take a little finagling but if you do just a simple square card it's quite easy. Here's a link showing you how to make an easel card. It's not this card, but you can see how the mechanism works.

I used the French Flair Pierce Tool to cut the basic shape of the easel and then a smaller one to fit inside. Next I layered on the green print Quadrafoil Square Doily 2 cut. Next is a brown circle cut using the Horizon Circle Boutique Stacker Frames. Behind the pretty Graphic 45 cut-apart is a white piece cut with the Square Frames 3 Piece Die Set. It makes such a pretty frame for the cut-apart!

To make the mechanism inside the card that holds up the easel, I popped up a sticker from the Collection and placed that on a small die cut from the Nesting Doll- Oval #2 set and layered that over a decorative paper strip. I also cut another shape with the French Flair Pierce Tool to place inside the card.

I love how easel cards stand up, they display so prettily! To finish off my card, I made a poinsettia with the Poinsettia Strip 6 Piece Die Set and added a pretty bow.

Thank You with Jenny Alia

Hi, it's Jenny here today with a Thank You card inspired by Cheery Lynn's Give Thanks Challenge. Blue is my favorite color and I tend to gravitate towards it when I want something both simple and elegant. I love it paired with kraft paper. I kept with a simple cool color scheme with this card.

First I cut the largest Horizon Square Boutique Stacker Frame from the set out of a solid blue paper. I adhered it to a 5.5 inch square card front. I then cut a piece of kraft paper to a 4.75 inch square. I used the largest circle from the matching Horizon Circle Boutique Stacker Frame set to cut a piece of design paper. I cut the Thank You twice and layered them, offsetting the blue one underneath for a shadow effect. Before gluing the thank you down I added in the Notre Dame Cathedral Doily die in white underneath. It fit perfectly onto the Horizon Circle layer.

Last I made the flowers using blue and white paper, a molding mat and tool and the Chrysanthemum strip die. These are such quick and easy flowers, they always look delicate and lovely. I added kraft leaves behind the flowers from the Build a Flower #2 die and then glued chunky glass glitter to the center of the flowers for some sparkle.

Trick or Treat by Jenny Alia

Jenny Alia 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Good Morning crafty friends! Jenny here today. I still seem to be making mostly fall cards. I can't get enough of these new Cheery Lynn Halloween dies. They are so incredibly detailed and unique.

I started with a 5.5" black card base. The design paper is 1/8 inch smaller on all sides. I stacked three circles to back the Trick or Treat die focal point. The largestest cirlce is a Horizon Circle Boutique Stacker Frames die and the others are from the new Circle Stitch and Cut Tool dies. I had originally planned the Witch Hat to take center stage but the sentiment seemed to work better. Trick or Treat was cut twice and I offset the black die cut to make a shadow behind the yellow one. I paper pieced the buckle into the witches hat which is the same light purple design paper from the smallest circle. The yellow is actually glued in behind the hat and was colored with a shiny gold paint for some extra pizazz.

I cut two spiderwebs from the Spider Net die out of purple card stock and adhered them to the right side of the card. The little matching spider was cut with black and I added a piece of yellow behind for his eyes. He was popped up with foam tape.

The flowers were made using my most used flower dies - the Gardenia Strip and Small Gardenia dies. These flowers always come out perfectly with little work on my part. I used a stylus tool to mold the edges of the flower petals before I stacked and glued them together. I glued purple rhinestones to the centers.

The purple leaves tucked in between the gardenias are from Crafty Ann which Cheery Lynn now carries and and are called Flourish #13.
