Love You Card by Eva Dobilas

Hello, this is Eva, hope you had a great weekend! Are you ready for Valentine's Day? Well, if not, I have a card to share with you using our gorgeous dies. So let me show you how I created this card.

I started out by creating an A2 size card base out of black card stock, then I die cut a A2 Frames Rectangular Scalloped die out of pink card stock and adhered it to my card base. Next I die cut a A2 Frames Rectangular Classic die using patterned paper and adhered that on top of my pink scalloped die cut. Then I die cut a Horizon Fishtail Banners out of another patterned paper and placed that in the middle.

Then I die cut the bigger of the Two Of Hearts die out of the pink card stock and placed it on top of the banner. Next I die cut one of the Tags #1 dies using cream card stock and stamped my sentiment on it and added it on top of the heart. Finally I die cut two Leafy Flourish dies using the smaller design using gold glitter card stock and tucked it under and over the sentiment tag.

Hope you like this happy little card as it's just perfect for Valentine's Day. Here are the Cheery Lynn Dies I used to create it with:

A2 Frames Rectangular Scalloped (Set of 7) - CM-6

A2 Frames Rectangular Classic (Set of 7) - CM-5

Horizon Fishtail Banners (3 Dies) - DL278

Two Of Hearts - DL128

Leafy Flourish (Set of 2) - B571

Tags #1 (Set of 6) - CABD-64

Well, that is it for now. Thank you for stopping by and hope to see you cards playing in this week's challenge!

Hugs,

Eva

Hi there, hope you had a great weekend, it's Eva here today sharing a sweet card in honor of our newest challenge, which is using doilies. Well, I love doilies, regardless what shape they are, so I opted to not use the typical circle shaped doilies.

To start out my card I created a card base using two French Flair Scalloped LG Stackers Nesting dies and adhered them together at the top. Than I die cut Dutch Scallop Square out of light blue card stock and die cut a square to fit inside of it out of patterned paper. Than I die cut the larger of the Two of Hearts dies and placed it in the middle of the square. I die cut the corners from the Royal Scandinavian Tag 2 and placed them in the corners.

I also die cut a Sweet Williams Strip out of blue card stock and created three different size flowers and placed flat pearls in the middle and placed them on the side of the heart doily. I die cut the smallest of the Pierced Banners and stamped my sentiment on it and added it to my flowers. Finally I die cut the smaller of the Leafy Flourish out of gold glitter card stock and added it to my flowers.

Here are the dies I used to create this card with:

XL13 - French Flair Scalloped LG Stackers Nesting dies

DL140 - Dutch Scallop Square

DL128 - Two of Hearts

B241 - Rose Leaf Strip

B307 - Sweet Williams Strip

B571 - Leafy Flourish

DL303 - Pierced Banners

B546 - Royal Scandinavian Tag 2

Thanks for stopping by and good luck to everyone for entering our Weekly Challenge with a chance of winning a $20 spending spree here at Cherry Lynn Designs.

A HEART SHAPED TRINKET BOX WITH ANITA KEJRIWAL

Anita Kejriwal 3:30 AM 7 Comments

Hello friends,
Are you ready for my weekly Wednesday project. Today, I am following the theme for this month's challenge---hearts....Cheery Lynn has most beautiful heart shaped dies and here I have used the die Heart to Heart. The flowers are all handmade and coloured with Copics. I have tried a pastel shabby chic look for my box and I totally loved the result. Its all lacy and nice...There are several videos on you tube as to how to make these heart shaped boxes and I followed one of them. This whole box nearly took two hours to make , but its worth the effort. Let me give you a brief description of how I made this.

First , I cut a chipboard for the base of the biggest heart die. Then I marked a half inch boundary all around the dis cut. Then I cut a paper measuring 3.5 '' in width and measured it long enough to cover the boundary of the base. Then I scored the base at 0.5 '' and added a score tape on this and cut small tabs so that I can easily curve along the border.

I cut three lattice die cuts and put it on this border covering the edges with dancing doily lace and ribbon. For the top. again I cut a heart shaped chip board and attached it to the back with white washi tape.

Then I decorated the top with another heart shaped die cut and flowers. For the inside, cut another heart die cut and simply stick to the bottom to cover all tabs. Decorate the edges with blings. I hope I could explain the process. Please do ask me, if you need to know anything else.

Supplies

Little Wishes {Spring Layout}

Gabrielle Pollacco 7:30 AM 8 Comments

Hi there! It's me Gabrielle here with you all again today to share my second project for the month with you as Cheery Lynn's guest designer! I had a lot of fun using the Clock w/Angel Wings die last week in a steampunk design. But I thought it would be cool to show how versatile this die is for other designs as well. In my l/o above I changed up the look of the clock a little by adding some flower accents to the middle of the clock design, playing up a more feminine design for the page.

I used the Sweet Williams die to make the the cream color flowers in the center of the clock. I created a flower bud for the center using a couple of the smallest cuts from this flower die and then layered a few of the next sizes up (giving them a little water misting and a wrinkle) for the other layers.

I made a heart embellishment for the page using the Celtic heart die on white cardstock and then with a pencil marked out the heart design on some patterned paper from Maja Design to create an underlayer for the heart.

I often like to create a counter balance on my page design, for this page I put a lattice design in the top left corner. I used the Lattice 2 die and gave it a random angle cut to appear like broken lattice. I then finished the design with more of the Sweet Williams blooms and using portions of the Ivy Corner Flourish dies.

TIP: I wanted to attach my lattice so that it stands away from the page a bit, but felt that adhesive foam dots can be a little tricky to apply to finer cuts and might be a little to thick. So I used some 3D paint like Perfect Pearls to the back of the die cut piece. When dry, I added some adhesive to the dried perfect pearls and stuck it to my page. This gave my lattice just enough 3D effect that I was going for.

Cheery Lynn Dies used for this project:

~ Clock w/Angel Wings (Steampunk Series) B357

~ Sweet Williams D137

~ Celtic Heart B144

~ Lattice 2 FRM115

~ Ivy Corner Flourish B315

I hope you enjoyed my project for today! I look forward to sharing some more fun projects with you all in the weeks to come! xo

Merry Christmas Inspiration with Rhonda

Rhonda Van Ginkel 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Happy Monday Cheery Lynn Designs friends! It's Rhonda here to host the blog for you today.

My card for today combined a few new dies as a feature from our October release for you. I used the very pretty Merry Christmas Holly Sentiment and some vines from the together to create the design here.

I cut the Merry Christmas sentiment first from some dark green papers, then once again from another pattern paper with mixed coloring. I trimmed around the oval, then used it as a frame on top. A little touch of inks gold gives a bit of shimmer.

I wanted to add a bit more to the design, so I cut one of the Lattice Hearts and Vines as below:

I trimmed small pieces and glued them from behind:

A layer of tulle and cheesecloth is on top of the paper, so I stitched my frame down in a few places. The sentiment was adhered with a touch of Glossy Accents from the back.

A few golden bells and holly leaves from our Mega Holly Flourish were the finishing touch, along with some little bits of red bling. Can you believe we are only about two months away from Christmas!?

Cheery Lynn Designs dies used:

Merry Christmas Holly Sentiment - B366

Lattice Hearts and Vines - B368

Mega Holly Flourish - B168

Don't forget to play along with our Borders and Edgers challenge this week! One very lucky crafter will win a $20 shopping spree in the Cheery Lynn Designs store! Check out all of the details here.

Prickley Pear Card

xxxtglxxx 3:30 AM 6 Comments

Hi and Good Morning everyone, Alison here today :)

My card today was created using a mix of wonderful stamps and dies from Prickley Pear, and of course some stunning Cheery Lynn Designs Dies.

I started off with a 6 x 6 inch kraft card base and layered green bazzil and K&Co papers. I cut the Dainty Dutch Deco Frame out of white bazzil and also the gorgeous City Girl Edger Border. I stamped the You Make Me Bloom sentiment, and added the Celtic Heart.

I then had fun making the beautiful flowers using matching stamps and dies from Prickly Pear. I cut 5 flowers from lilac bazzil card and then stamped the flowers onto lilac vellum. This made the image really easy to line up with the dies and they cut beautifully!

I added some olive branch leaves, dimensional leaves, ribbon, pin and what is rapidly becoming my signature finishing touch, the gorgeous butterfly.

All dies and stamps used on this card are:

Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps

Mini Habiscus Die - PPRS-D030
Sunflowers & Mini Habiscus Clear Stamp Set - CLR028

Cheery Lynn Designs

B308 - City Girl Edger Border

B144 - Celtic Heart

DL141 Dainty Dutch Deco

B147 - Olive Branches

D133 - Dimensional Leaves

DL112 - Small Exotic Butterflies

Thanks so much for visiting our blog today, and dont forget if you have time we have a fabulous prize over on our challenge blog this week, where our theme is Creative Corners.

Have a smashing week!

Valentine's Tag

Unknown 3:30 AM 5 Comments

You just have a couple more days to pull together your Valentine's goodies, and what ever you choose, it always makes things extra special to add some homemade love. I created a tag to decorate a bottle of champagne for the special occasion, but you could just as easily add this to a box of chocolates (or even better - both!)

I love making tags with a little shape to them, and created this one by using the Angel Wing that came with the Chasing Rainbows Doily die. It's such a beautiful shape, and I just lined it up on the rectangular piece of paper, and taped it in place, so it wouldn't shift when I ran it through the machine.

I added the sentiment over the printed vintage picture (Pion Papers) - and cut away the original "S), so that it would just read Valentine.

The flowers were nestled around the smallest die from Two of Hearts, which is just a perfect size for such arrangements.

Frame It - is the new Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge for the week. We would love to visit your blog, and see what you create. One participant will be chosen to win a $20 gift certificate each week.

Shaped Valentine's Card

Unknown 3:30 AM 7 Comments

I think seeing pink last week from all of the wonderful entries that we had at the Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge influenced me to share this delicate pink card with you today. And besides, Valentine's is quickly approaching so you've got to use this color scheme! Right?

It is so easy to make a shaped card using Cheery Lynn Designs. I used the largest die from the Heart to Heart Doily set (which is just a plain outline). I scored my white cardstock in half, taped the die so that just a little bit extended off of the paper at the top, and ran it through the machine. Super easy. Another thing to keep in mind when you are making shaped cards, is that the Angel Wings that come with so many of our dies, are great for lining up along a fold, to make a shaped base.

I cut the doily heart from pink cardstock, and glued to the base. I love having all of the sentiment dies to mix and match. Happy, Valentine's, and Day are all separate dies, so you can add others and have the greeting for about any holiday you might need.

I keep playing with our newest Build A Flower set, and for this card, I made an Anemone (that's one that is fun to say and make!) I cut the Tropical Flourish into 2 sections, and framed the flower. And....that leads me into the challenge that is up this week - Add a flourish. CLD has so many flourishes, that I could not do without, and I'm sure you feel the same way. So pull them out, and show us what you've got. One entry will be chosen to win a $20 gift certificate to the store.

Sweetheart Cuddles

Donna 3:30 AM 11 Comments

Good Morning Cheery Lynn fans, Donna here today to show you my Sweetheart card I've made for Cheery Lynn Designs showing you some of the new dies and also some oldie but goodies. I've decided to follow the latest challenge which is "Sweethearts"

I've used a Sarah Kay image called "A Little Bit of Country", as I thought they made the perfect image of Sweethearts kissing. Colored with Copics, I cut them out and mounted them using silicone glue to the centre of one of the newest doilies released this month called Eastern Star Doily w Angel Wing.

I've used the Lady Kate Edger on either side of the paper with hearts in the middle, cut out of Kraft Cardstock. And of course the lovely heart is the Celtic Heart, which I cut out of white cardstock, and also out of Kraft cardstock and put them together.

The sentiment I believe is from Magnolia, I never remember as I stamp them out as I get them and put them all in a big container and forget what came from where...lol

Here's a list of the dies I used on my card

Eastern Star Doily with Angel Wing

Lady Kate Edger

Celtic Heart

I hope I've inspired you to make a lovely Sweet heart's card for this week's challenge, using some of the many heart and love related dies Cheery Lynn Designs make. Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely day.

Fun with Angel Wings

Jodi 3:30 AM 6 Comments

Hello! Today I have a fun Thanksgiving card for you!

I created the fun scallop edge of my card using the English Tea Party Doily Angel Wing!

I cut the strip for my card base, then taped the angel wing to the end of the strip so that it wouldn’t move as I cut it.

Whaaala!! A fun decorative edge on your card!

The frame was cut using the middle size Classic Coved Rectangle Silver Stacker. I then cut out a portion of the coved rectangle block using Classic Square Silver Stacker making a fun frame for my sentiment! I finished off the frame with Lace Corner Deco B. I cut two layers of Fall Pumpkins, trimming off the outer edge of one layer and adhered it to the center of the pumpkin with foam adhesive for dimension to my pumpkin. I layered the pumpkins atop the larger of Two of Hearts tucking in leaves and foliage from Mini Fanciful Flourish, Wreath Strip, Small Leaves #2.

There is still time to enter this weeks challenge for your chance to win the $20 gift certificate! Details Here

My Favorite Memory

Jodi 3:30 AM 7 Comments

Hello! Today I am sharing a layout I had published in the September Issue of PaperHaus Magazine using their Sept sketch.

I created the lacy background by piecing together pieces of the Tiffany Border. The Mega Tea Party Doily add the perfect amount of elegance, with an Exotic Butterfly #2 resting on the edge. Mini Pearl Rectangle Reflections Boutique creates the ideal size matte for photos. I used the smallest of the Scalloped French Flair to back my title label. The Pennant Die finishes off the look. Darling Daisies are scattered about.

Celtic Heart and a Scalloped Window Stacker adorn the journaling block topped with a sticker backed with Scalloped Coved Rectangle Stacker. Small Leaves #2 and the Mini Fanciful Flourish make the finishing touch.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Stacker Nesting Die Tutorial

Jodi 3:30 AM 10 Comments

Hello! Jodi here today to share a fun way to use the Stacker Nesting Dies and the Silver Stacker Layers.

Here you can see the cutting edge of the Classic Coved Rectangle Stacker Nesting Die.

To create the base of the card, I placed my folded piece of cardstock on the die with the folded edge next to NOT OVER the cutting edge. By keeping the fold inside the cutting edge I am able to keep my cardstock in one shaped piece! I avoided any shifting of the cardstock by taping the cardstock to the die.

To create the frame, I used two similar sizes of the Classic Coved Rectangle Silver Stacker Dies. These dies have fabulous marking in the center of the die which are in incredible help in aligning the dies. Just match them up and away you go! Once I had mine aligned, I taped them to the cardstock to prevent shifting while I cut.

Tadaaa!!!

For fun and texture, I added the Lattice #2 to the backside of the frame and trimmed off the excess before adhering the full piece to my card. I added texture and ambiance to the card with the Petite Hearts XL Embossing Plate. The Anastasia Border added the prefect amount of elegance to dress it up. The rose and leaves were cut using the Build a Flower #2 die. Darling Daisies are the prefect accent flower. With Olive Branches and a Mini Fanciful Flourish tucked in. Also added is the smallest of the Two of Hearts, and a mini Exotic Butterfly.
