Nautical Thank You by Jenny Alia

Hi friends! I'm back today sharing a new card. I seem to be making simpler looking cards lately with less layers and I'm always looking for a way to spice them up. I love the way CAS cards look when done right but I struggle with them.

This card was made by using the Chevron die as a stencil. I used different colors of ink sponging gradually from lighter to darker. Then I mounted the frame I cut using the Rectangle Pierce & Cut die. I cut the center out of the rectangle using the next smaller die in the set. Thank You was cut twice and glued together for a little more substance. One of the seahorses was mounted with foam tape for dimension. The shells were cut out of a cream cardstock. The main design was then glued to a light blue card.

Colorful Thank You Card with Bonnie Garby

Bonnie Garby 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi Cheery Lynn fans. Bonnie from Make Time to Craft here with you today with a bold and colorful Thank You card featuring some pretty dies from Cheery Lynn Designs.

The wild and colorful Distress Ink background paper I created is a perfect backdrop for a bold white frame die. It really shows off the detail of the die. I also used some of the background paper I created for the Thank You sentiment which was backed with a turquoise layer for a shadow effect.

I also carried the paper through for some of the layers of the pretty flower to pull everything together.

The flower was created with the Daisy Strip for the petals and then I created the center using the center die from the Black Eyed Susan strip. The leaves came from the Floral Bouquet kit. Why not mix and match flower pieces to create even more options!

Cheery Lynn Dies used:

B540 Thank You

CAFR-23 Square Frames

B259 Daisy Strip

B338 Black Eyed Susan Strip

B777 Floral Bouquet Kit

My card was topped off with a pretty bi-color bow created on my Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool using Hot Pink and Turquoise Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon. The center of the bow was adorned with a heart shaped pearl embellishment.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope I've inspired you to pull out your flower dies and try mixing and matching some of the petals and leaves. Happy crafting.

The Mayflower

Debbie's Time Out 3:30 AM 0 Comments

A warm hello to you. It's Debbie hosting the blog today from Debbie's Time Out. Today I will share with you a guy card. I will be featuring one of Cheery Lynn Designs older dies called the Mayflower. This die is perfect for men's or even boy cards.

I started this card with three layers of cardstock for the base. I layered the Burlap Border across the center at a angle. This border is one of my favorite dies on men's cards. The Mayflower I cut in two different colors and inked them up. I just love the detail in this ship.

Here I layered the Sand dollar & Starfish as well as the Ship's Compass. The Thank You was layered on the top corner.

I thank You for visiting the blog today and hope I have inspired you to do a few men's cards. The men do really appreciate homemade card too.

Have a wonderful craft day my friends.

Thank You Card with Maggi

Maggi 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Nothing says thank you better than a handmade card! This is a large 7.5" x 6" card. The base is simple cream cardstock and then I added several layers. First a simple rectangle layer, then a layer cut with the Coved Rectangle Stitch Nesting Set. Next two different sized cuts with the Rectangle Scalloped LG Purple Stackers Nesting Dies.

In the left corner I added the Victorian Romance Flourish Die. This is such a pretty cut, it really adds a little pizazz to my card I think. The thank you sentiment is the Thank You 2 Piece Die Set .

On the right I used the Inkwell & Quill 2 Piece Die Set. I really love this die, it's so fun and so vintage! And of course I had to add some flowers. I used the medium and large rose die sets to created these gorgeous roses. These are the best rose dies I have used. It's so easy to make a really pretty rose with these dies because the die cuts 7 pieces at once. With one cut you have all the layers you need to assemble these gorgeous roses. No more repetitive cutting!

Thank You Love Card by Amy Voorthuis

Amy Voorthuis 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Good morning lovelies.

Oh I am so happy that spring has landed here in The Netherlands as I am longing for some warmer weather and some vitamin D....next week it's going to be about 18 degrees and I can't wait for that. Well enough of me blabbering about the weather today. I would like to show you another card, this time it's made with the gorgeous "Summertime" collection by Maja Design and no flowers for me this time {well a little but no die flowers I mean}.

Thank You Love:

I am a hugh sucker for those DL278 - Horizon Fishtail Banners dies. The projects you can make with them are endless. I completed my card without any mixed media and that was really hard because nowadays all is mixed media....so no sprays, paste, etc, only a stamp with the word love.

Thank you so much for visiting the blog today!

I hope you enjoyed my post and I have inspired you to use your Cheery Lynn Designs dies.
Have a lovely weekend.

Hi crafty friends! Today I'm sharing a thank you card. I never have enough thank you cards to send after the holidays. During the summer I made a number of flowers so this card came together quickly. If you are inspired to make flowers it's so nice to have a number on hand when you want to create a quick card.

I layered the black Royal Scandinavian Doily over a piece of patterned paper. I then cut the Thank You and glued it to the Quadrafoil Tag using foam adhesive to glue it to the Scandinavian Doily. The Thank You was cut after another paper in the same mat stack. I also used it for the Flourish Leaves which I added to the floral arrangement after placing the two Daisies, the Black Eyed Susan and the orange Tea Rose around the doily. The flowers were colored with distress inks and I added a clear glaze to the orange tea rose.

A warm Hello to you today. It's Debbie from Debbie's Time Out hosting the blog . I had a couple of flowers in my stash that I had previously made using the Chrysanthemum Strip. So I used them and created this card around them.

I started with a beautiful gold pattern paper to match the flowers. I layered the Lattice Heart & Vines to the center and then layered the two chrysanthemums flowers made from the Chrysanthemum Strip. A few of the Flourish #13 leaves were tucked behind the flowers. The sentiment thank you from the Thank You #2 was layered along the bottom. A simple yet elegant card.

I thank you for visiting the blog and for the comments you leave. They are appreciated. Please come join our challenge @ http://cheerylynndesigns.blogspot.ca/search/label/challenge for your chance to win a $20.00 store certificate. I would love to see what you create.

Hello, it's JENNY posting today with a layered card. These dies are so beautiful and intricate I decided to keep it simple. I don't usually use a lot of black on my cards but black can be such a crisp almost statement color so I thought I'd try something different.

I began with a black 5.5" card base. I cut the Historic Barcelona Square and the Royal Scandinavian Doily out of white paper and layered a piece of Tiffany-blue colored card stock in between. I layered another square of blue card stock on top and then adhered a black Royal Scandinavian Tag using foam tape. Thank you is glued to the top of the tag.

I don't know if you can see it well in the photos, but Thank You is covered in glitter glue and I added four rhinestones to the corners of the alpine doily die for a little extra glamour. This card was simple and elegant and could be easy to replicate multiples as a gift for a bridal shower.

Hi friends! It's Jenny posting today with a card using one of the Card Cover Maker backgrounds. Background dies can add sophistication to a simple card. I cut the Card Cover Maker #7 out of white card stock and layered it onto an A2 green patterned card. The Thank You #2 sentiment was cut out of light blue card stock and then the edges were brushed with distress ink. Thank you was glued to a Sentiment Tag 2 die cut that was adhered to the card front with foam adhesive for dimension.

To make the rose I cut two roses with the new 3D Rose #2 die. I glued them together so they were offset (the petals of one rose were between the petals of the other rose) and then rolled them as one flower. I like the look of this rose doubled, it produces a very full flower. I started rolling the flower with a quilling tool and then halfway through began rolling it by hand. It's glued together underneath. After it was together, I sprayed it with yellow and pink mists for color and shimmer and then rolled the petals with my fingers until I was happy with the shape. The leaves were cut using scraps of patterned paper and the Flourish #14 die.

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.

Fall Thank You by Jenny Alia

Jenny Alia 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Good Morning! It's Jenny posting today with a fall card. I was planning on using a lace die for this week's challenge but this Mesh Border die just called to me instead. It reminded me of a fall table runner my sister had on her table recently.

I used an A2 dark red card base and then glued a piece of white card stock on top. I used the Mesh Border die that I cut with kraft paper and glued it down. The I added leaves cut with the Dimensional Small Leaves #2 die. The shading and color blending was all done with a cosmetic sponge and distress ink. I arranged the leaves and tacked them down to the card with double sided adhesive tape.

I then cut the Thank You #2 three times and glued the layers together. The dark red paper is heavy weight and three layers together make the die cut look like chipboard.
