Beautiful Day Card by Amy Voorthuis

Good morning lovelies.

I had a lovely weekend spending it with my husband, son and his parents celebrating both our birthdays. We are both born on the 6th of March. Because I have been battling the flu for the last two weeks, I didn't want to have a big birthday party so this was nice. Today I would like to share another card with you all. So sorry that I haven't been making layouts but time is really flying by so fast. This time I used the pretty new "Salvage District" collection by Prima Marketing to create my card. This collection is really pretty.

Beautiful Day:

I made the DL233 - Italian Flourish Tiny Doily the centerpiece of my card. I cut it out four times and then folded all four in half to place it on top of each other. Then I cut out the beautiful B434 - Sweet Christine two times and placed it on top of the Italian Flourish Tiny Doily and finished it of with a say it in crystals bling gem from the "French Riviera" collection.

For me this was a simple card to make and in due time I will make a tutorial how I make my cards. It will probably be this month but I will not promise it. Because I am very busy designing this month.

Create Flowers by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 4 Comments

Hi Everyone, It's JULIE here today and now that the Christmas season is over I thought it would be nice to make a card filled with summery flowers.

My card has lots of layers, tattering at the edges, adding Frantage Powders and tucking in doily accents. My inverted scalloped edge was made using a piece of waste paper and cutting out a scalloped square.

My Watering Can was painted with Pewter Distress Paint and adding some Archival Ink for shading. I then added a little Grass to the base and on the top of the Watering Can I shaded with a Pale Blue pen and added Glossy Accents for a watery look.

I cut out 2 of my Leafy Flourishes, placing one on my card, the other I cut into sections and placed into my design with my Flowers which have Flower Soft added to their centres.

Hello Card with Corina Finley

Corina 12:30 AM 1 Comments

Hello! Happy Friday!

Corina here with you today to host the Cheery Lynn Blog. I have been showcasing Christmas Cards and Well Wishes Cards these past few weeks. Today is an "All Occasion" type card which was inspired by this weeks challenge Things with Wings - here on the Cheery Lynn Blog.

When I saw the pattern paper - I just knew I wanted to use the cute Bee Die. Perfect Combo! I pulled a few more dies from my Die albums (how I store my dies - which I will share in the future!) and started to create!

I layered the Italian Flourish Tiny Doily on top of the Polynesian Sails Mini Doily. I then die cut a small and medium Tea Rose - inked and sprayed each and added the trio leaf that cuts out with each of the Tea Rose strip.

I think that Bee works perfectly! So easy to colour because it comes with the coordinating solid background die. I cut the top detailed layer from black cardstock and cut the back die in white. I coloured the white die cut and adhered the black detailed die cut on top. Added some glitter to make the wings sparkle!

My top right hand corner needed something! I cut the Tag from scraps left over of the pattern paper and cut the smallest of the Horizon Fishtail Banners. I trimmed the banner to fit and added the flower, leaf and rhinestones.

Here is a closer view of the floral arrangement, Bees and sentiment banner.

Dies used:

Tiny Things with Wings - B266

Horizon Fishtail Banners (3 Dies) - DL278

Deutschland Border Set (set of 3) - B523

Tags 4 - B263

Tea Rose Medium - B436

Tea Rose Small - B435

Italian Flourish Tiny Doily - DL233

Polynesian Sails Mini - DL237

Kisses by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 6 Comments

Hi Everyone, It's Julie here today and I have made a card using the beautiful Hummingbird die. Let me show you my layers on this card as I build it up.

In this photo you will see I have paper pieced in pale pink corners.

The corners were made using the Horizon Rectangle die that is in the centre of this photo.

My doily was cut in half and pieced behind my Sentiment Tag. This gave me an oval shape to it.

My Hummingbird was shaded with Distress ink and layered up twice for added dimension.

Finishing off my card with some Cheery Lynn flowers and the word Kisses.

Ornate Vintage Card by Julie Lavalette

Hi Everyone. Hope you are all having a lovely weekend, it's Julie here today. This week I decided to showcase the versatility of one of my latest favourite dies from our newly released Doily Collection called Alpine Flourish Doily.

This die comes as a set of 2. You have the option to have a solid centre or use the ornate centre in the middle of your doily. For my card this time, I opted to have the solid centre as I wanted to stamp and mount a verse to place on it using the card maker die, this also fits perfectly as a mount to the back of my Alpine Flourish.

You will notice the ornate sides on my card are die cut using the centrepiece from my doily. I then mounted onto my plain card stock to make my design pop forward.

My flower and leaves were shaded with distress inks and mounted onto the Italian Flourish Mini Doily. I die cut out 2 doilies and made a cut into the centre on both of them. Next folding back and forward in a concertina style, I glued them together at the edges to form the full circle again.

I added a little stickles and distress around the edge and pearls to finish.

Crimped Flower Card with Corina Finley

Corina 3:30 AM 6 Comments

Hello Cheery Lynn Fans!

It is Corina here with you today and I am sharing a card that I made last night! I started off playing with flowers of course! Trying a "new to me" technique on the light brown (Tea Dye) Cherry Blossom flower.

I lightly spritz the back of each layer with water and folded/crimped each petal with my fingers. I placed each layer to the side and let it dry. I then used my styles in the center around the small hole that is die cut into each layer. This gave each layer a cupped shape and the petal edges were not flattened.

I enjoyed making them and I know I will have to experiment on the other Cheery Lynn Flower Dies.

I also used the Clocks Embossing Plate to create texture and pattern to my card base. I first took my ink pad (Tea dye) and gently tapped on to the embossing plate. Making sure that I only applied ink on to the top of the ridges - image/pattern part. I then ran it through my Big Shot. Not only is my card base embossed but it is also stamped with ink! I love this technique!

Try this technique out and enter it in NEXT weeks challenge "All about Textures" - here on the Cheery Lynn Blog. This new challenge starts on Sunday!

Sweet Christine - B434

Embellishment #2 - B188

Flourish Leaf Strip - B178

Life Moments Card

Corina 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Happy May Everyone!

It's Corina here with you today to share my Life Moments Card. For this weeks card, I used the NEW Bird Bath die, along with a few Doily dies and my favourite NEW die set the Horizon Fishtail Banners (3 Dies but on this card I used the smallest). Absolutely perfect for sentiments!

I love layering with Cheery Lynn Dies. They work so well together. As you can see from the pictures above and below that I have 7+ layers! Even with so many layers, this card can easily fit into a regular card envelope for mailing.
