Basket for Mom

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?

Spring Card with Laurie Schmidt

laurie 12:00 AM 0 Comments

Hi everyone!

Laurie here, sharing a spring card with you today.

I couldn't be happier that spring is finally here...the snow has melted and one of my friends even saw the first robin. Before we know it, it will be time to get out the garden tools and start planting!

Cheery Lynn has the cutest garden tools in the Doily Companion Square set. I have them sitting along side the water can, which I decorated with a small heart from the same set.

The tiny butterflies are from the Doily Companion Oval set, and the flowers from the Indie Bouquet.

The sweet little lady bug is also from the Doily Companion Square...there are SO many fun dies in that set.....just perfect for spring and summer cards!

The sentiment is from Cheery Lynn's Happy Easter die, I just cut off the "Happy" and stamped the word "spring" instead. I also used the pierce and cut circle and squares.

Here's a list of the dies I used:

Happy Easter B529

Doily Companion Square DL310

Doily Companion Oval 311

Watering Can B420

Indie Bouquet B874

Square Pierce and Cut tool LPC1

Circle Pierce and cut tool LPC4

Thanks for stopping by.....Happy Spring!!!

Whimsical Birdhouses by Laurie Schmidt

Laurie here sharing some Whimsical Birdhouse cards today!

I love Cheery Lynn whimsical dies and this is a great one for making some fun spring cards. I used lots of bright colors, and added some flowers from the Floral Bouquet and Indie Bouquet sets. I added the lil feathered friend from the Bird on a Branch die. So cute:) It's all backed on a pierced circle:

For the next card, I switched up the colors a bit and added a Celtic rectangle to the design. This time instead of stamping a sentiment I added one from the Love Gift Envelope set.

The tiny cute hearts on the birdhouse roofs are from the Doily Companion Square set. That's another fun set for spring and summer!It has the sweetest tiny flowers and garden tools.

Step card with a twist with Maggi

Maggi 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hi there Cheery Lynn fans, Maggi here to share a fun easel card with you. Easel cards make such great display pieces and I decided to add a little twist to this one by giving the easel part a different shape. I used a Cheery Lynn Designs die, Pierced Stacker 3 6 Piece Die Set , and diecut two pieces and used them to form my easel. I love how it looks at the bottom propped against the button revealing the interior of the card.

Then I topped the pierced stacker with a French Pastry Doily diecut that served to frame my lovely chipboard piece from Graphic 45's Portrait of a Lady collection. I added a pretty flower made with a flower diecut from the Bohemian Collection - Indie Bouquet - 6 Die Set .

I used a chipboard button from the Portrait of a Lady collection to create a stop for the easel. Underneath the button I used paper layers and a pretty trim diecut with the Lady Kate Edger Die .

At the top left I made a little floral cluster with flowers cut again using the Bohemian Collection - Indie Bouquet - 6 Die Set and leaves using the Flourish Leaf Strip 5 Piece Die Set. I just got this Flourish Leaf Strip die, it's already a favorite as it adds the perfect finishing touch to my floral clusters.

Cheery Lynn Designs dies used:

French Pastry Doily Die - DL102

Lady Kate Edger Die - B278

Pierced Stacker 3 6 Piece Die Set - XL21

Bohemian Collection - Indie Bouquet - 6 Die Set - B874

Flourish Leaf Strip 5 Piece Die Set - B178

Other Supplies:

Bohemian Word set...Peace

laurie 2:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi everyone!

Laurie here sharing a card I made with some of the dies from the new Bohemian die collection. I started out with the Bohemian Word set, cutting out the word,"Peace." The small heart is also from this set too..it's actually in the middle of the word,"love." Then I cut out the flower and leaf from the Indie Bouquet and Mehndi Botanical collection. The greens are from the Floral Bouquet kit.

I backed it all on some stitch and cut pierced rectangles. I finished the card with one sparkly enamel dot in the center of the flower!

Indie Bouquet by Laurie Schmidt

laurie 2:30 AM 3 Comments

Hi everyone!

Laurie here sharing a card I made with some of the dies from the new January release. I'm loving this Bohemian set. Especially the flowers...they are so fun!

I started out with the rectangle stitch and cut tools, and made 2 inlaid frames. I stamped the sentiment in the middle and added a few sequins for a bit of bling.

The flowers are cut out with the new Indie Bouquet dies, and I added some leaves from the Mehndi Botanical set.

The foliage is from the Floral Bouquet Kit, which is a super addition to add to your collection of dies. It goes so well with ANY flower arrangement, and also has 2 flowers that come with it. I'm finding I'm reaching for it all the time, especially now that I have started to make more spring cards. Flowers are so cheerful when snow is still on the ground...it's fun to think about spring!

I LOVE the detail on the flowers and the leaves, and added some enamel dots to the centers.

Here's the list of Cheery Lynn dies I used:

Indie Bouquet B874

Rectangle Stitch and cut tool LSC-16

Floral Bouquet Kit B777

Mehndi Botanicals 2 set B863

The new Bohemian collection of dies is just fantastic. I've used several of the dies from that collection to create this Valentine card.

The black and white overlay is the Paisley Frame - 2 Die Set. On the right I added a diecut flower using the Indie Bouquet die set.

I also made a pretty rose using the Large rose dies.

It's alwyas nice to do the inside of a card too. I diecut flowers, again with the Indie Bouquet dies and I stamped a sentiment onto the smallest diecut from the French Flair Pierce And Cut Tool - LG Silver Pierce Tool 6 Piece Die Set.

Happy Birthday

Debbie's Time Out 3:30 AM 2 Comments

A warm hello to all. It is Debbie back with you from Debbie's Time Out. Today I am going to share a card using more of the new Bohemian dies that were just released at the CHA.

The doilies are beautiful from this release as well as the assortment of flowers, leaves and swirls as you can see on this card. I layered two of the Mandala Doily onto the base to start with.

Here I have over lapped three leaves from the Mehndi Botanicals 3 and layered a flower on top from the Mehndi Botanicals 1 . Inking everything up really makes them pop.

This flower is from the Indie Bouquet and the swirl is from the Mehndi Botanicals 1 set.

For this flower I used the Indie Bouquet and layered a embellishment to the center. This leaf is from the same set. Now I really like this leaf with all the little holes around it.

The peach and aqua flowers are from the Indie Bouquet set. The Happy and Birthday sentiments were layered to the top corner.
I hope you have enjoyed seeing several of the new bohemian die assortment used on this card. Such a variety of shapes and sizes with so much detail.

Thanks for visiting the blog today and for all the comments you leave.Comments are always appreciated. Have a crafty time my friends

Sweatheart Valentine with Laurie Schmidt

laurie 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Laurie here with a "sweet" Valentine to share today.

Valentine's Day is just a few weeks away, time to get those cards made! Cheery Lynn has such fun dies to use too... one of my fave being the Sweetheart Candy dies.

My mom always bought me a box of Sweethearts, and I always bought them for my kids too. It was so fun to read the cute messages on each one. Sometimes we would add them in our Valentines at school too. You had to make sure you had just the PERFECT one for your special Valentine!!!!

On this card I added 3 sweethearts up at the top!

The word LOVE ( from the NEW release) is cut out 3 times in black and adhered together to add some dimension. The red heart inside has some glimmer mist sprayed on it for a bit of bling.

On the bottom I added a flower I made with the NEW Indie Bouquet and the Floral Bouquet sets. An enamel dot is in the center. Everything is backed on some stitched rectangles, and fun patterned paper.

Cheery Lynn dies used:

Sweetheart Candy B675

Bohemian Word B871

Rectangle Stitch and Cut tool LSC-16

Floral Bouquet Kit B777

Indie Bouquet B874

Have a great day everyone!

Love step cards and the new Bohemian collection!

Maggi 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Maggi here today to share one of my favorite card designs, a step card, and Cheery Lynn Designs makes it easy for you with their step card die, Step Card Bundle Set #4. Then add in some diecuts from the new Bohemian collection and you're sure to have a winning card!

I've used dies from the new Bohemian collection to enhance this card.

I used the Mandala Doily 2 backed with a diecut from the Nesting Doll- Circles #1 3 Piece Die Set. I really like how the Nesting Doll diecut provides a backing for the Mandala Doily diecut.

On the right face I've used Bohemian Collection - Indie Border, althugh it is hard to see because of the printed paper. The flowers were made with the Bohemian Collection - Indie Bouquet - 6 Die Set.
