Your Wedding Day

A warm Hello to you. It's Debbie from Debbie's Time Out hosting the blog today.

For the base of this wedding card I have used the Window and layered a pattern paper that reminds me of wallpaper behind it. To the top and bottom corner I layered the Victorian Romance Flourish which is so elegant. The bride and groom are from the Wedding Vows set.

I created some larger flowers using the Daisy Strip and smaller flowers using the Tiny Flower Kit. The leaves were from the Tea Rose small set. The flowers and leaves were inked with distress inks. Pearls were added to the flowers and flourish on the corner.

Inside I used the Pop Up Birthday Cake after cutting the candles off of it. I layered the Border Carnivale along the top of the cake to cover were the candles were. This birthday cake makes a great wedding cake too.
I then cut and glued down the Alpine Flourish Doily and stamped the sentiment on it.

It is always nice to make that special homemade card for a wedding. So I hope I have inspired you into making a special wedding card.

Thanks so much for visiting the blog today and for the comments you leave.
Have a crafty 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!

A girly layout with Maggi Harding, guest designer for September

Maggi 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi there Cheery Lynn fans, I am Maggi Harding from Scrap, Travel & Bark, and I am so thrilled to be here as the September guest designer. What an honor for me! Wow, do I ever love the Cheery Lynn dies, they are so fabulous. I love how the paper so easily releases from the dies and that you can cut through two layers of cardstock with the dies. I am a layouts and tags kinda gal with the occasional off the page project and card thrown into the mix, so today I want to share a layout with you that also goes along with the September 1 challenge theme to use lace. I love using lace and ribbons on my layouts so I used a pretty heart lace all around my photo.

I used the Victorian Romance Flourish in each of the 4 corners to set the base for my floral clusters. Then I added Flourish # 7 -CAFLRS7. To make those flourishes extra pretty, I inked them around the edges. Inking creates depth and I love layers, depth and dimension.

I have to have layers under my photos so I used the Horizon Coved Rectangle Boutique Stacker - DL 251 to cut a large and medium mat for my photo.

I am totally a flowers kinda gal and I am totally crazy about the Cheery Lynn flower dies! I used the Black Eyed Susan Strip die B338 to create the pointed petal flowers and the Floral Bouquet Kit B777.

I especially love the black eyed susan center, it's so easy to make and looks so fabulous! I inked the edges of my flowers, shaped the petals with a large ball stylus and they layered them up.

Now flowers need some leaves around them to make them look realistic so I diecut leaves and berries with the Floral Bouquet Kit (B777). That kit is so versatile because you get two sizes of flowers plus pretty stems, leaves, and berries! I also added some Lindy's mist to the petals so that the color would be mottled and more realistic.

For these flowers, I used both the small and large flower in the Floral Bouquet Kit (B777). The center is made up of 3 small flowers. To make the small flower and the center of the large flower, I just pinched the petals together and gave them a nice scrunch.

Summer Garden by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hi Everyone, It's Julie here today. Isn't it lovely the summer flowers are starting to bloom and I thought this week I would bring part of my garden onto my card.

I started by layering my Flourish onto my card as a background accent and added my Pocket Watch with silicone glue.

My leaves were cut out in green card stock and shaded with distress ink, rolling my edges and layering on with Silicone to give a natural look to my leaves. My Flowers were coloured with Copics and a little Flower Soft added to the centres.

We have a Baby Blue Tit which frequents our garden regularly and I just had to include him on my card. I shaded him with Distress inks and used a Fineliner to hi light the black.

Adding Stickles, bling and a stamped sentiment which was fussy cut to finish.

Thanks for stopping by to see my post today. Good luck to everyone entering our Weekly Challenge.

Dreaming of Summer Days by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 4 Comments

Hi Everyone, It's Julie here sharing the blog with you today. We have had such a lovely week of weather in Scotland, so I thought it would be nice to share a Summery card with you all. My card measures approx 7"wide x 6"Height ( 18cm x 14cm ) when standing.

I started making this card by cutting out all my layers, inking the edges and gluing together with a stamped sentiment in the centre.

My Mega Doily was cut out twice to give a shadow effect. I layered them together cutting off a little section at the middle, to make it look neater on the outside. I also place a strip of card down the middle to strengthen my card. I trimmed a little bit off the bottom of my Doily to stop my card from rocking to one side.

Some photographs of my flowers being made.

A close up of a finished flower.

I added a bow to the top of my card using the Pretty Pretty Bows die.

Notice I have added some tiny flowers with pearl centres.

Finally an angled shot of my finished card.

Patriotic Page with Rhonda

Rhonda Van Ginkel 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Greetings and welcome to the Cheery Lynn Designs blog! It's Rhonda here today to host the blog.

I made a patriotic page today featuring a photo of Mt. Rushmore that I took when we were on vacation this summer. There was something so patriotic and majestic about seeing the monument in person.

I started with an 8x8 piece of white cardstock and used Fancy Corners #4 on the corners. Next, I used the Scalloped Rectangle and aligned it to cut a 7x7" square. (This is one of the Reflections Boutique dies.) At the top I used a Victorian Romance Flourish as a hanger type of element in between my layers. Lace Heart Square is next.

I had some pieces left from my project last week, so you will see the Foliage Embossed white cardstock and French Lattice on top, tucked under the Southern Charm Valance on the right.

To anchor my photo I used the Polynesian Sails Oval, then layered a medium Horizon Oval Boutique Stacker with foam squares. The photo is then attached with foam squares. This gives me a lot of area to layer my cuts. On the bottom you'll see a snip of Sophia's Heart Border, another piece left over from a previous project.

Layered on the right are the Quills and a Wheat cluster, topped with the Star and Birds of Earth and Sky. To the left of that is a Branch. There are Cloud cuts layered under the photo and one attached with foam squares.

On Your Special Day by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 5 Comments

Lovely to have you stop by today. It’s Julie here hosting the blog. This week my Mojo was at an all time low... don’t you just hate when that happens. So I decided I would play along with our Wedding Theme Challenge for this week and I was soon back on track.

I decided to make a 6x6 card and thought it would be nice to have colours resembling the bride, groom and bridesmaid on my card, so I chose White, Grey and Lavender to work with. I cut out my French Lattice die twice in grey card and pieced them together to fit over my lavender paper to form a square. When doing this I found it easier to have my lilac paper cut roughly to the size I needed. I then worked out where my crosses matched best to make my join and re-align the 2 pieces together and glued onto my lilac card, finally trimming around the edges. My topper is two stamps stamped onto a pearlised linen card and die cut out with a little grey card mounted behind to make the design POP.

You will see I have used my Cuties Strip around my card. This die makes gorgeous flowers but is also great to use as accents onto your card. I die cut out in white card and inked the edges with a lavender shade. On the reverse of the paper I pressed my embossing tool into each petal, this gives a little more dimension to your card as doesn’t look flat when glued on.

I placed the Victorian Flourish die onto my card and used a couple of the waste pieces onto my design too. My miniature roses were cut out from linen card and when the glue had dried I rubbed over some lavender ink. Everything was placed onto my card along with my final touches of bling.

Thanks for looking at my card and I’d love if you have time to leave me a comment. Good Luck to everyone entering our Weekly Challenge. I will see you all next Saturday.

Cherish Card by Corina Finley

Corina 3:30 AM 5 Comments

Hello! Corina here with you today on this last Friday of June - Time flies when you are creating!

This week I thought I would play with the Black Eyed Susan Strip flower die. This strip die has 4 flower layers - I used only two layers to create this flower. The Die also has a centre for the Black Eyed Susan which I did not use for this flower today.

I inked each with blue ink and then misted both layers with water. I gave the water a few seconds to soak in and then I twisted each petal (pinching the tips) in the same direction. I allowed them to dry and sprayed with homemade glimmer mist.
