Hello everyone and Happy Tuesday to you all! Today I'm sharing a super sweet card I made using Cheery Lynn Designs darling dies. LOVE this super sweet Whimsical Bee die, and she works perfectly with the sweet Daisy strip die. I really enjoyed making this darling card. Of course I always seem to take forever choosing design papers.  I'm not sure why, maybe due to the fact that I own way too much of it.....LOL hehehhe that could be one reason, but I'm so funny about picking my design papers first, and doing all my layers, then cutting all my dies.

Anyway, I selected an OLD design paper I bought years back, and it's from All My Memories 2005.  I bought it in 2006 though, crazy right?  Well I bought a lot of it, as I really loved this collection, so I pulled it out and figured I would use the yellows and blacks in it, and leave out the reds and pinks. Next I had already picked out all the dies I wanted to use on my card. I love Cheery Lynn's flower strips, they are so easy to use, and make flower making super fast, so I made up the daisies.

Cheery Lynn Designs Dies used:
Whimsical Bee B800- Cut in black, and then added yellow card stock to the back , next I added some stickles to give some glitz to my sweet bee.
Flourish Frame B888- cut in white card stock, its behind the whimsical Bee
Daisy Strip B259- Cut in white, ran through machine just 1 time, and then dusted them in a yellow ink. I did use the hot glue gun to glue them together, and to add a white embellishment from Really Reasonable Ribbon to the center of each flower.
Flourish #3- was also cut in white and then dabbed with 2 different club scrap greens.
Page Tabs B567- was cut in the coordinating yellow card stock that was used to layer my card layers, then I stamped a sentiment from Lifes a Garden , Pink by design stamp set. I also added some black dots using a black pen.
Ribbons are from Really Reasonable Ribbon
 I really enjoyed spending some time crafting and making this card to share today. Hope you enjoyed my short post, and have a lovely week!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

Hello to all. It's Debbie from Debbie's Time out. Thanks for joining me today for our themed week of Christmas projects. I am showcasing two of the new Gift Envelopes that were released not long ago. They are the Merry Christmas and Winter Fun sets and have the cutest tiny festive dies for making mini albums.


I  use the Mini Book Hearts and Ribbons  , the Gift Envelopes and Page Tabs to create the cutest little mini album. I made a hidden hinge binding to attach all the envelopes to thus creating a few pages for my album. . You can see the Mini Book Hearts and Ribbons  binding I have used along the edge  of the book.


This is the inside cover and page one. I have cut the top flaps off the envelopes so I could insert a stitched page to put a photo on both sides of .  The page inserts are cut from the Square Stitch and Cut tool .  I have staggered little tabs to the envelope edges  using the Page Tabs  .


 I have also put a photo matt on the back of each envelope for adding a photo. The dies used on the right are from the Merry Christmas Gift Envelope


The tiny die cuts I have used here are from the Winter Fun Gift Envelope . They work great for Christmas projects as well.



This is the last page.


Here is the back cover with a nice view of the binding and tabs. This is the cutest little Christmas mini album that will hold a total of nine photos. It would make the cutest little gift for that someone special.

Thanks so much for joining me today and I hope I have inspired you to get a few Christmas projects done ahead so you are not rushing at the last minute. I love working with dies and Cheery Lynn Designs has a huge selection of Christmas dies that you should check out..

Hello!

Corina here with you today! This weeks card inspiration came from my stamped sentiment. I sometimes need a little reminder once in a while!


As you might have noticed on my previous cards, I love Cheery Lynns banners. I saw the Tags 4 in my Cheery Lynn Die book and thought I would give them a try instead, to create a flag look. I am happy with the results!

I have also used one die from the Royal Scandinavian Border Set to cut into the burgundy paper strip border. I layered the border on top of black cardstock to add depth.

On top of my stamped embossed sentiment, I have added a Page Tab. I love this set for card making, mini albums, journals, and page layouts.


My flower was created using Judy's Blooms, Dandelions, and the Leafy Flourish die. Inked and finished off with a black rhinestone for the center.

Dies Used:

Judy's Blooms - C184

I then added a paw from the new release to the center. To get the embossed effect, use a rubber mat under your die. I then added a little glitter glue to the cut out area.

I cut the WOOF sentiment out of cardstock and added brown glitter glue on top. I also glittered the bone in the top left corner and the paw print on the heart page tab. The paw print on the page tab is the negative from the embossed paw print on the flower. 

Tip: when trying to recreate the paw print with the five small cutouts, lay the "embossed outline" paw print down where you want the print to be and only glue the small pieces in the "holes" and then lift the outline away.

Dies used:

Meow! & Woof! (Set of 2) - B560
