Cheery Lynn, You have rocked my world!!

9:14 AM 6 Comments
Hello everyone, Jeannie here with my last post for Cheery Lynn Designs.
I have been with these guys for a couple of years and I will miss working with Mike and BJ.
Obviously this card is dedicated to them.


Cheery Lynn Designs was my first Manufacture Design Team, so I have a lot of gratitude for them helping me get my name out there. 




You can't see behind the Celtic Whimsy Band, but I've got a portion of the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody behind it.  I needed something behind it to make it stand out a little more. 
So Mike and Bj...this is it..our time is over..your crazy designer, that made things like no one else did.
Your crazy, whimsical girl!

Bee Cute

Hello everyone!  It is me Jeannie with my 2nd to LAST post for Cheery Lynn Designs.  
Of course I am going to remind you of my favorite artist...ahhhh



For this card I am using a lot of very fun dies.  


Since the challenge on the Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge Blog is FRAME IT, I started out by using FRENCH LATTICE SMALL.




As you know I just love using Mary Engelbreit Images and bases for my cards and I usually use something in the card to build on.


For this card, I used the color palette to build on.  I just loved the colors that she used and just expanded the colors for the whole card.
I hope you like this as much as I do.
Be sure to come back next week.
It will be my LAST post.
Until then...Have a great weekend!

On the wings of....

4:19 AM 5 Comments
Anyone else remember that song?  "On the Wings of Love"?
Hardly the inspiration for my card, but the title hit me when I was getting ready to write my post.


On the Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge blog our new challenge this week is Borders and Edgers.
I tried to incorporate that theme into my card today.


I am still using my New Release dies and still very much in love with them all.






I love how colorful this is.  I think it fits the saying perfectly.

A Shoppers Dream

3:30 AM 4 Comments
This is a little shadow box I got for $1.00 at Hobby Lobby in the clearance section because what ever was in the shadow box had been ripped off.


Knowing I would use it at some point, yep, I bought the silly thing.


I'm so lucky to have all my Cheery Lynn Designs Dies to work with. Here is what my $1.00 "purchase" turned out like.


Improvement, agree?


I took the Reflections Scalloped Circle Die, and used it as a 1/2 circle for the banners at the top.




I framed the sentiment on the bottom with Scalloped Rectangles.


All my papers are by Authentique Paper and the stamp set it called If the Shoe Fits, by Unity Stamp Co.



I think this turned out adorable and I hope you enjoyed my post today.  This has been Jeannie from The Polka Cabana posting for Cheery Lynn Designs.

Be sure and check out our Challenge blog.
Our current them is STITCHING.

I know why the caged bird is singing on this card!

3:30 AM 7 Comments
Did you get my reference to the famous book?  
I am still having a ton of fun with dies from the August New Release.


The new dies I have used on the card are Bird Cage, Hummingbird, Celtic Whimsy and Embellishment #2. 


Dies that are not from the new release are Scalloped Rectangle's, and Mini Fanciful Flourish.


I am so impressed with the intricate pattern of the Celtic Whimsy.  It cut easily and is such an impressive pattern.  This is easily one of my new favorites.


I also love the new Bird Cage.  What a gorgeous design.


Have you had a chance to head on over to our Challenge blog?


I just peeked and we are up to 41 entries already!  WOW, it's not even the weekend yet.
The theme is anything goes.  Remember you do need to use a Cheery Lynn Designs dies in your project/card to qualify, but still anything goes?  What have you got to lose?  
Have a great weekend!  This has been Jeannie from The Polka Cabana with today's Cheery Lynn Designs post.

"Love"ly card - with New Release Dies

3:30 AM 6 Comments
Hello Everyone...This is Jeannie with a beautiful card to show off some of the new release of Cherry Lynn Designs dies.


In the top left corner I have used the new Butterfly Out die.


The bird on the branch is a combination of the new Hummingbird die and Embellishment #2 set.


The delicate flower is made from the Build a Flower #2 Plate


I've embellished some of the flowers and the butterfly with some i-rocks from Imaginisce, leftover from our fun joint swap with them.


My card is based on a design and products from a kit from Deena Ziegler.
I hope you have enjoyed my creation today.  I live for making these weekly creations, I really do!
Cheery Lynn Designs are magical to work with and this new release, WOW!!  That about says it all!
Have a great weekend, this has been Jeannie with The Polka Cabana posting for Cheery Lynn Designs.

Thinking ahead to Halloween Time

5:28 AM 8 Comments
It's hard to even think about Halloween time. Before you know it we will be making Christmas cards etc too.  In this last batch of New Release dies, there were a couple of dies for Halloween and I thought I'd pair them with some I already had and I came up with this fun card.

I embossed my card background with Leaves Embossing Plate.  


The dies I am using from the new releases are CREEPY GATE and PUMPKIN SWAG.


The black cat and tree are a set called SCARE ME and the moon is made from the center of the SUNFLOWER die.


The cloud is a stamp that I stamped and cut out.


I think that the card turned out so cut and not too spooky! What do you think?
 I am having a lot of fun with the new release of dies.  
I hope to have time to play with the flowers this next week.

Altered Notebooks With Imaginisice & Cheery Lynn Designs

5:39 AM 32 Comments
Hasn't this been a fantastic week of fun here at Cheery Lynn Designs.  
I have had so much fun seeing all the creations with the Imaginisisce papers and products.
I have created a set of altered notebooks.
They are made from basic composition books that you can get from your local office supply store. The ones that look like this:


But with a little imagination, Imaginisce products and Cheery Lynn Designs Dies, you can create some adorable purse notebooks.


The dies I have used on these are, Flip Flops, Fanciful Flourish, Buttons 1, Zig Zag Ric RacStacker Flower 3 and Fish.


I love making these.  I think that the more bright and colorful the papers are, the better the "purse" turns out.


I also used Imaginisce's i-rock tool to adhere some colorful hot rocks to both purses.



The large SUN KISSED DIE CUTS are so cute and the girl on the purse I think is the perfect touch!


Here is what the back of the purse looks like.


Here is the inside.


Here is the little "mini" purse.


Mini back.


Isn't it the cutest thing?


Here is the inside of the mini.


One last look.


I hope you have enjoyed my projects today.
I have enjoyed working with Imaginisce this week.  I am a huge fan and this has been quite and honor.
