Cheery Lynn Happy Easter


Hi Cheery Lynn fans!  I just bought this large Easter Egg die and I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to have some fun with shimmer sprays.  It's difficult to see in the photograph but the egg really shimmers.  It has such great detail, some of which I unfortunately covered with the Happy Easter sentiment.


I used the Pierced Banners die to make the double sided banner.  It was easy to run only one side of the die through my die cut machine, then flip the die (lining up the holes) before finally cutting the other end of the banner.  This way I was able to get the same detail on both ends.  It's also great because you can modify the length of this banner.  It was originally too large but I solved the problem by re-lining up the holes in both the die and die cut and then running one end through the machine again.

Cheery Lynn Hello


Hi, I was inspired to use lime green and aqua together and this is the result.  The hello is photographing as black but it's actually more of a charcoal color.  I chose the colors first, the background lattice next, and then the flowers and foliage.  


This hello from the Bohemian Word set is one of my go-to Cheery Lynn dies.  I love the casual script font and the size is large enough to make a visual impact on a card.  It works well on clean-and-simple cards but is elegant enough to use on other style cards as well.  After molding the Sweet Williams flowers using a stylus and molding mat, I added a white center from the Embellishment #2 Set and glued small rhinestones to the centers.

Cheery Lynn Thank You Tag


 Hi friends!  I was in a mood to make a tag.  I grabbed design paper that I never use, glued it to a tag, trimmed it and my project evolved. 


I backed the circle with a piece of black cardstock for some contrast.  The flowers were made with the Gardenia strip and Build-a-flower #2 dies.  I used two different yellow-green papers for the foliage cut using the Floral Bouquet Kit.  For sparkle I added glitter glue on the Thank You Circle and rhinestones on the flower centers.
