Just for You by Eva Dobilas

For the May 2016 New Release Blog Hop, please scroll down or click HERE.

Hello, it's Eva here today. Hope you enjoyed our blog hop yesterday and all of our new dies. Today I continue sharing a card created with some of our newest dies.

To create this card I cut an A2 size card base out of navy card stock and die cut the front with Card Cover Maker #4 and added gold glitter card stock beneath it. Next I die cut Mirror Mirror Doily Frame out of white card stock and also die cut the extra oval from the set using red card stock as it coordinates perfect with the Just For You Oval Die, which I die cut out of white card stock. I adhered the layers and finally placed them on the doily.

Next I die cut the flowers and flourishes from the Floral Bouquet Kit Die Set, built the flower and added them all to the card. Finally I added some yellow pearls in the middle of the flower.

Hope you like this happy card and here are the dies I used to create it with:

CAFR-11 - Card Cover Maker #4

DL286 - Mirror Mirror Doily Frame

B784 - Just For You Oval Die

B777 - Floral Bouquet Kit Die Set

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see your cards in our challenge!

Hugs,

Eva

Where Flowers Bloom by Eva Dobilas

Eva 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi there, this is Eva and I am here with a rather simple yet pretty card. I am trying to showcase again, that you don't need too many dies to create pretty cards with. In this case I used three Cheery Lynn Designs dies.

To create this card I cut an A2 size card base out of white card stock. Then, using the Card Cover Maker #1, I die cut the front and backed it up with a yellow card stock to show the color through the design. I stamped my sentiment in the middle of the circle. Next I die cut a Happy Halloween Twiggy Wreath out of green card stock and added it to the middle of my card. Then I die cut a strip of the Sweet Christine out of dark pink card stock and added it to the wreath to create my flower wreath and added yellow Tonic Crystal Drops in the middle of the flowers.

Hope you like this little card and here are is the list of dies I used to create this card:

Card Cover Maker #1 - CAFR-3

Happy Halloween Twiggy Wreath - B469

Sweet Christine - B434

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see your card in our current challenge.

Hugs,

Eva

Happy Birthday Card by Eva Dobilas

Eva 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hi there, this is Eva and I have a Birthday card to share with you. To start my card I cut an A2 size card base out of a light gray blue card stock. Using the Card Cover Maker #5 die I die cut the card front and I placed a cream color card stock to show off the pretty design.

Next I die cut an Ankara Lace Doily out of light yellow card stock and also the wing out of cream color card stock and adhered it to my card front. Then I die cut the Olive Branches out of green glittery card stock and the Flourish #6 dies out of light green card stock and placed it on the doily. Next I die cut a Sweet Williams Strip out of yellow card stock and inked it up and built my flower and added a black half pearl in the middle and added it to my flourishes.

Finally I die cut a Happy and a Birthday die out of deep pink card stock and added it to my card.

Hope you like this little card and here is the list of dies I used to create it with

Card Cover Maker #5 - CAFR-12

Ankara Lace Doily with angel Wing - DL232

Daisy Card by Cohenna

cohenna 3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hello there, it's Monika. Today I wanted to show you a layered card.

Preparing the card is very simple. Check it out.

I trimmed the edge of the frame to make it thinner

On violet base I glued a smaller square. It's slanted and popped up.

Then I glued the frame but again on an angle.

I glued only in the middle - around the diamond which is in the center.

There is no need to attach more. This will be done when we add flowers.

See the great dimension of the layers.

Now it is time for the flowers and leaves. I did daisies in orange and

yellow ink. You can arrange them in many positions.

Have fun with your own creation.

Cheery Lynn Designs Dies used:

B259 - Daisy Strip

B304 - Ivy Strip

B241 - Rose Leaf Strip

FRM119 - Mediterranean Lace Rectangle Frame

Be sure to check out this week's Anything Goes for a chance

to win a Cherry Lynn Designs $20 store credit.

Have a nice day.

FALL COLOURS

Anita Kejriwal 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Hello !!!!!

A big hug to all of you and I hope you all having a very good time . Here I am with Wednesday weekly post and this time , I 'm featuring a fall card.The season of Autumn is in full swing and the fluttering og brown leaves inspired me to make this. Here I have cut the Fiona's magic mirror as a frame and also cut a second piece of the same die and did some fussy cutting to highlight the first frame frame. This way we can use the dies to give more ornate look to our work. The leaves are of course the cheery lynn large leaves and I love the natural look of these leaves, The back ground is also not a patterned paper but have been created with stamping and distressing using a penny black stamp. I have used glossy accents on the stamped images and as droplets of water on the leaves
I have cut the leaves and acorn and twisted and molded it to give a natural effect and distressed them with distress inks.

Dimentional large leaves # 2 D 136
Fiona' smagic mirror-FRM 140
stamps=crafty indivual, Just rite and penny black
inks-walnut stain. vintage photo, crushed olive. rusty hinge and memento onyx black
twine from stash

Take out the best cheery lynn frame dies to take part in the challenge=Frame it. A 20 $ shopping at the cheery lynn store is the prize.
I hope you leaves a few good words for my card.

My Family 8x8 Layout

Amy Voorthuis 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Good morning everybody,

Amy here with you today, as by now you all know I love to make layouts.

Cheery Lynn Designs has got me thinking outside the box which I really appreciate.

I'm totally hooked on making 8x8 layouts.

So today I have another one to share.

My Family

I adore using the gears so much. This time I left the cut-outs in my gear dies.

For this layout it looked better that way, something else I did different I cut them out of a piece of cardboard! That way they are thicker.

I did a lot of pasting on my layout and some glimmer misting.

The picture is a favourite of mine. I don't own so many old pictures but this one is very dear to me.

It's one of my grandfather (Arthur), my grandmother (Anna), my uncle (Evert) and my mom (Gerla) many year ago. On December 19th my mom turns 60.

My grandfather died in 2003 and my grandmother and uncle live in Florida.

I miss them very much.

now some close-ups:

Cheery Lynn Designs dies used:

FS171 - Delicate Lace Script

B189 - Sentiment Frame #1

B136 - Anastasia Border

B340 - Gears (set of 9)

I hope you all enter our amazing challenge 106 Autumn Colours as you can win a $20 shopping spree!

Thank you so much for being here today I really appreciate all you sweet comments

have a wonderful weekend!

Love

Lilac Dream

xxxtglxxx 3:30 AM 4 Comments

Hi and Good Morning :) Alison here again today, sharing this weeks card inspired some more gorgeous and easy to use Cheery Lynn Designs Dies.

Now wasnt this picture was taken in the last of the summer rays today ? lol :)

I started off using a blank 6 x 6 card base, and layered white american crafts cardstock with some scraps of lilac paper. This cardstock was used for all the die cuts, and it cuts like a dream.

I then created my background using the elegant Daisy Lace Frame, and edged it with the Lady Kate Edger. I then stuck down 2 strips from Alisons Ribbons to conceal the join. I coloured my image with PM's and glittered the wings, and matted onto oval stackers and scalloped oval stackers.

I made the lovely sweet flowers using the Daisy Strip die (my favourite flower die ever!) and secured with pearl and glitter brads. The pretty dragonfly and olive branch leaves were added as a finishing touch, along with some white pearls.

All dies used on this card are:

FRM118 - Daisy Lace Frame
B278 - Lady Kate Edger
B335 - Alisons Ribbons
B259 - Daisy Strip
DL152 - Dragonfly
B147 - Olive branches
L-7 - Oval Stackers
XL - 8 Scalloped Oval

Thanks so much for visiting our blog today, and I hope to see some fabulous entries in our Halloween Challenge this week.

Have a smashing day

Elegant Summer Card with Cheery Lynn Designs

Unknown 3:30 AM 8 Comments

Can you believe August is already here? How is the summer going by so quickly? My card today is an elegant summer card, that would work well for any special occasion.

I used a Square Stacker to cut an opening on the front of my card, and then cut the French Lattice, and adhered it to the opening and covered over the edges with the Horizon Square Doily Stacker.

The flowers were made with the Black Eyed Susan Strip. The flowers and leaves were all cut with white cardstock, and colored with pigment inkpads. You can see how this technique really shows off the beautiful embossing of the leaves.

Don't forget that Cheery Lynn Designs is having a Design Team Call. You can find all of the details here.here And our weekly challenge is "Anything Goes" - so we expect to see tons of beautiful Cheery Lynn Designs projects!

Thinking of you

Jenn Bedient 3:30 AM 7 Comments

Hey everyone!

Jenn here, back again with my second week as guest designer. Did you all see the early release of the new fabulous dies? Love them! Hope everyone has fun shopping, and even more fun crafting with your new dies!

For my card this week, I needed something quick to send to a very special lady who I wanted to let know she is in my thoughts. Since she is very elderly, I wanted something a bit on the elegant side, but also perhaps a bit on the vintage side. Here is what I came up with:

I love my Cheery Lynn butterflies just as much as I love the flowers. They are so delicate, and still can be shaped into a dimensional embellishment just as you would a flower. It is also so much fun to play around with bits and pieces of different dies to create different looks. The top border above the ribbon is a side I cut off from the Dutch Doily Rectangle Frame. I've also used half of a Polynesian Sails Oval on the bottom half of the card. Added a few other embellishments, and viola! Done in under half an hour.

Dies used:

Dutch Doily Rectangle Frame

Polynesian Sails Oval

Anastasia Border

Lace Corner Deco set E

Mini Dimensional Butterflies with Angel Wings

Small Exotic Butterflies #1 with Angel Wings

Wishing everyone a fantastic weekend!

White on White Daisy

xxxtglxxx 3:30 AM 9 Comments

Hi and Good Morning Everyone :) Alison here again today.

My card for this week is a WoW creation, showcasing the elegance and intricacy of Cheery Lynn Dies to their best!.

This card has a very simple, but effective layout, and works well with an combination of borders and frames.

I started off with a 6 x 6 inch blank card base, and all dies and layers were cut from American Crafts white textured cardstock.

The centre panel is the stunning Daisy Lace Frame die, and I tucked behind it 2 layered lace borders, Border Carnivale and City Girl Edger. To hide the join I used one of my favourite expandable dies as I really think this finishes it off.

I made the centre flower from the Daisy Strip die, and added 3 gorgeous butterflies and some card candi to finish.

All dies used on this card are:

FRM 118 - Daisy Lace Frame
DL129 - Border Carnivale
B308 - City Girl Edger
B215 - Expandable Dies
B259 - Daisy Strip
DL112 AB - Small Exotic Butterflies

Thanks so much for visiting our blog today and dont forget you still have plenty of time to enter our challenge this week where our theme is 'in stitches'. As always the lucky winner will receive a $20 shopping voucher for the Cheery Lynn Store, so well worth playing along.

Have a smashing week!

May Sunshine and Laughter Brighten Your Days

Unknown 3:30 AM 4 Comments

It seems like the rain is never going to stop here, so I loved the sentiment that I used for this Upright Z-fold card. This project uses a couple of different techniques, so I'm going to break them down for you, so you can make your own.

For the background paper, I took a patterned paper, and ran it through my machine with an embossing plate.

I used a brayer to apply watermark ink over the top , and sprinkled it with clear embossing powder and heat set the powder.

I repeated the brayering and embossing two more times to build up a thick layer of embossing powder.

I inked over the surface with the dark brown ink, and then used a paper towel to remove the ink off of the embossed areas.

I set this to the side, and started the card base by cutting a strip of cardstock 4 1/4" x 11. I placed the paper with the long side along the top fence of my scoring boardl, and scored at 5 1/2" and then flipped the paper, and scored at 2 3/4". Fold the base so that you have a small "tent" to the front of the card.

I adhered the embossed paper to the back panel of the card. I took a strip of gold paper 4 1/4" x 2 3/4" and used the City Girl Edger to cut decorative borders on each side. A added a scrap of the embossed paper to the center of this panel and adhered to the bottom of the card.

For my image panel, I cut brown cardstock 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" and covered it with the French Lattice Small. I used the Coved Rectangle and Coved Rectangle Stitching Tool for my sentiment. The stitching tool allows me to make perfect stitches around my border. I adhered the bottom of this whole panel to the base of the card.

The original directions for making this type of card relied on a tab on the back panel to tuck the front panel behind, to make it stand up, but I created a different method. I glued a lace Corner to the back of my brown panel, and sat my card on the table, and used a Crop-a-dile to punch holes to line up with the opening in my fancy corner die. I then ran ribbon through the holes in the card and laced it through the die cut and tied my bow. This keeps the card standing upright, and can be untied to flatten the card for mailing.

For the flowers, I used the Shasta Daisy Strip. I inked the edges with a dark yellow chalk ink.

Then, I cut a small circle into a scrap of paper to make a template, and placed it over each flower, lining up with the center.

I spritzed into the opening with tdye ink spray. This kept the splatters just to the center of my flower.

I assembled the flowers and added some greenery to finish the card.

Summer Flowers with Cheery Lynn Designs

Unknown 3:30 AM 5 Comments

The official first day of summer was last week, so to help celebrate - I have a summery card to share with you.

The flowers were made with the Shasta Daisy die, and Build A Flower 2 Embellishments for the centers. They are very easy to put together - in fact, I made all of these flowers with only 2 cuts from the daisy die. I also used the new and improved Silver Stitching Tool on my oval (I know it's hard to notice it on the picture - but there is stitching around the edge.) Such a great way to make perfect stitches.

This is the last week to enter the Summer Blast with Cheery Lynn to win an eBosser - but we will have another contest in July, so be sure to watch for that. This is also the last week that our challenges will be found on the separate challenge blog - starting June 30th, you will find them starting on Sundays on the inspiration blog. This week the challenge is Wonderful Weddings. Show us your best creation using CLD and you could win a $20 gift certificate!

For Mom's Everywhere

Donna 3:30 AM 7 Comments

Good Morning Cheery Lynn fans, Donna here with a Mother's Day card, even though we celebrate Mother's Day in the Uk in March, I decided to make one for this week's challenge.

I've used an image from LOTV, colored with Copics, and cut out with the oval classic Lg Silver stackers, I then drew the false stitching using the edge of the die to make perfect lines. I then cut out a larger circle using the Oval Classic Large Stackers. The largest square cut out of Kraft cardstock was done using the Mini Pearl Square. All other matting was created using the square classic and scalloped Lg Stackers. Flowers are the new Shasta Daisy Strip, and the Embellishment #1 die. Foliage is the ivy strip and the centre piece from the Victorian Garden Doily Frame., I've also used the Princess Tree at the top of my card. The gauze border across the centre is another one of the new releases.

I made the sentiment spelling out Mom using a alpha stamp set from Whimsy and the Tags 4 set. Papers are from Bearly Mine, pearls from my stash. The card is 8x8.

Gardening with Cheery Lynn Designs

Unknown 3:30 AM 7 Comments

The Cheery Lynn Design Team recently received some beautiful papers and stamps from Magnolia, so today I wanted to share a card that I created with these sweet gifts.

I decided to create a small garden for Tilda to be tending. I combined flowers from the Daisy Strip and the open-petal daisies from the Manon's Wedding Garland die to make these hybrid daisies. I framed my stamp with the other cuts from the Wedding Garland - and colored the inner oval with inks, and reset it into the doily frame.
