Cheery Lynn Designs Inspiration Blog: Whimsical "Be Happy" Die

Saturday, June 25, 2016

Be Happy by Debbie Brownmiller

A warm Hello to you. It's Debbie from Debbie's Time Out hosting the blog today. I am featuring another of the newly released sentiment dies called "Be Happy".

I was trying to think outside the box and thought why not use the sentiment in place of the sunflower. Not sure what you will think but I kind of like it. It's just something a little different.

The Whimsical "Be Happy" sentiment I cut three times out of cardstock and layered them so it was more like chipboard. I inked it up with a couple of colors of distress inks. The flower part of the die I offset and shaped. I then placed the sentiment on the stem and leaves of the Sunflower Set instead of a flower for something different. The background was embossed with the Black Eyed Susans .

I cut two of the Nested Flower Pots and cut the rim off one so I could do a double layer on the rim for added dimension. I place the cats from the Kitty Kitty Meow Meow set in front of the pot.

I invite you now to come join the Bi-Weekly challenge

Bee Happy Card with Amy Voorthuis

Good morning lovelies.

I am so happy you decided to visit our blog today.
Did you blog hop with us last Wednesday? If not you probably should because you will love it for sure. The "new" whimsical collection is sooo darn cute. I really adore all the different animals so much that my wish list is growing and growing lol.
This time I used the bee die that I ordered right away when they came out.....with the new "Be Happy"phrase that I changed a little ;-)
For this card I used the older "Happy Tails"collection by BoBunny which still is one of my favorite collections by them {weird right?} because I normally love soft toned papers.

Bee Happy:

The B787 - Whimsical Be Happy Die is so much fun because it can be used in many ways it has a sweet flower on the upper left corner that you can layer for more dimension like I did. I cut out the bee a couple of times and layered the colors so it makes the perfect bee!

If you follow my work you will find out that I used the Whimsical Giraffe & You Are Awesome dies on a layout that I created for Maja Designs. Hopefully you will blow me away with your amazing designs too!
