Cheery Lynn Off to Great Places

Hello, I'm sharing a card made for Cheery Lynn's Red, White & Blue challenge.  I figured aqua counts as blue.  First I used the largest of the Deutschland Boutique Stackers to cut the blue layer that was glued to a white A2 card.  The red layer was cut with the Rectangular Classic A2 Frames.  I stamped the quote, cut it with a small circle from the Circle Classic Silver Stackers Set, and adhered it to the Nautical Wheeler Doily.  The interior of the circle was shaded with antique linen distress ink.

The flowers were cut with the Poinsettia Strip.  I used a light blue card stock and shaded the edges with peacock feathers distress ink.  I crumpled the petals for a distressed look and added rhinestone centers.  The leaves were cut from the Flourish Leaf Strip and flourishes from the Add a Flourish dies.  Then I tucked them into the flowers.  

Last I used one of the Small Exotic Butterflies, colored him with distress ink, popped him up with foam adhesive and added rhinestones.

Hi, I'm here today with a new card for Cheery Lynn Designs.  I don't often make shaped cards and thought I'd give it a try, I thought the round shape nicely complimented the hot air balloon.

The bottom layer is the largest from the Circle Scalloped die set topped by the largest Circle Classic Silver Stackers and then another scalloped circle was added to that cut from design paper.  The two large bottom layers were colored with distress inks.  

I cut the balloon die, backed it with the matching angel wing and colored both with distress inks.  The compass, and barbed wire were also colored with distress ink as was the Fishtail Banner.  The sentiment is a stamp from Riley & Company.  I used foam tape to pop up the banner, balloon and compass dies and for added bling, glued flat-backed rhinestones to the compass and balloon.  

I cut the Fleur de Lis and used a frantage silver embossing powder on it for an aged look before gluing to the banner.

Classy Cards Cloud Confetti

Today I'm sharing a card inspired by the Classy Cards 'n Such's Cloudy Day challenge.  I tried to recreate the beautiful relaxing feel of the inspiration photo in a shaker card.  If you use my coupon Jenny-10 you can save 10% off your entire order at the CCNS store.

I made an A2 sized card out of a piece of Kraft Card Stock.  The Joy Crafts Waves were cut with a blue card stock from my stash.  I used the die as a stencil and highlighted the accents with peacock feathers distress ink and a Mini Ink Blending Tool.

The shaker was created by layering two sizes of nesting circle dies.  I glued a piece of clear packaging material I salvaged from toy packaging to the back of the circle.  The shop has clear card stock that would work perfectly for this.  I stamped my sentiment onto white card stock and sponged tumbled glass distress ink around the words.  Then I used a really thick foam adhesive to adhere the circle to the sentiment layer after adding some bugle beads inside. I glued the back of the sentiment layer to the card front.  I tucked another piece of waves into the front of the circle too trimming until I liked the result.

The clouds are from a die in my stash but you could achieve a similar look with many of the cloud dies or even cloud stencils currently in stock.  I added a couple of them using Joy Crafts Foam Adhesive Pads.

The seahorse was cut from Joy Crafts Crab & Seahorse die set and colored with distress ink.  I sponged more peacock feathers distress ink over the die using it as a stencil and then added liquid pearls for interest.
