USA by Jenny Alia

Hi friends! I hope all of you in the US had a wonderful 4th of July. I don't make a lot of patriotic cards but being married to an Eagle Scout and having children in Scouts collect patriotic dies. I thought it was time I put some of them to use. I do use this star set all the time for birthdays, anniversaries, thank you and just because cards. I love the pierced detail.

I popped the red square panel up with foam adhesive. The USA die cut came from the Military Dog Tags Set. I glued a blue layer over the Proud USA die and then a white layer behind to get the white stars.

Every Day of Your Life - by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi Cheery Lynn fans, it’s JULIE here today and I’m sharing some inspiration with our Cardmaker Dies. These are great Dies for putting a statement on your card especially if you need a card last minute for someone.

I started by matting my Cardmaker layer onto a layer of cardstock a few shades darker. Next I stamped my sentiment and mounted onto the same colour of card used in my background. This was then added onto my card with an accent of my Tag die behind and flourishes offset to the sides.

My flowers have been shaded with Distress Inks adding Flowersoft into the centres of the smaller ones and a sparkly gem into my Daisy.

America the Beautiful with Bonnie Garby

Bonnie Garby 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi crafty friends and happy summer. It is HOT, HOT, HOT where I am in the northeast USA! No denying that it's summer. Tomorrow is the 4th of July holiday here in the US and nothing says 4th of July and summer better than a Patriotic color theme. This note card was created with some pretty dies from Cheery Lynn Designs.

This is a very simple design where I let the Lattice Frame as the background do all the work along with the small and simple Sweet Christine Flowers. I just cut the Lattice frame in red and adhered it to white cardstock and then added a red and blue layer beneath it. I wrapped some pretty ribbons around that unit and then at the very bottom you will see a layer of wispy white mulberry paper. I then topped that with the sentiment panel which was also layered with blue cardstock and white mulberry paper.

The flowers are very easy to assemble. I cut the flowers in red, white and blue cardstock. I inked the white pieces in red and blue with an old script background stamp. I then shaped the petals with a needle tool and glued the layers offsetting the petals for each new layer. I then added the leaf layer to the base before adhering them under the sentiment panel.

My card was topped off with a pretty bi-color bow created on my Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool with ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon. The center of the bow is adorned with a pretty star shaped pearl embellishment.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. For more information on the other products I used on my card, please visit my Make Time to Craft Blog.

Hi everyone! Im celebrating the 4th of July early with you and Cheery Lynn Designs! In Chicago, the celebrations start days in advance....so I thought I would start too! Since, I will be there again this year.

This is an easy card to make using Pierced Stars. I die cut one in white and two others, one in blue and one in red. I added fun festive papers and ribbon in the center. Lastly the bling. Done!

The sentiment was printed from my computer.

Sweet Baby Boy Card with Cheryl Walker

Cheryl Walker 1:30 AM 0 Comments

Hello crafty friends and Happy Friday to you all! Cheryl here today sharing this sweet little Rocking Horse card I designed using Cheery Lynn's darling dies. I love making baby cards as they are always so much fun to create, and I LOVE this darling horse, so cute!

On my card I used the C108 Rocking Horse cut out in coordinating design paper and white card stock. I did add some glitz using stickles in blue. The doily he is on is the Priscilla Doily, one of my many favorite Cheery Lynn Doily dies. It was cut using the same white card stock. I did also cut the corners in white using BD-17 Corners die.

All the card layers were done using Pebbles design paper and american crafts card stock. I did add sewing in blue. The eye on the horse was done using the Viva Pearl pen in black, love using this for eyes. For the ribbon I chose to use Really Reasonable Ribbon's Taffeta ribbon.

Super fun and simple card to make, hope you enjoyed my post, and Have a wonderful weekend!
