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.

Cheery Lynn Love

Hi friends!  It's Jenny here today with a floral Love card.  I've wanted to use these Mehndi Botanical Stems since I first got them but they disappeared on me for awhile.  When they resurfaced I cut and colored them immediately.  I love the details and think they add a fun bohemian element to projects.  I paired them with the Mandala Doily and added a gardenia which just may be my favorite Cheery Lynn flower to create.

I colored all my die cuts using distress inks and foam makeup wedges and glued a silver rhinestone into the center of the Gardenia flower.  The Mandala Doily #1 was adheared using foam adhesive for dimension.

Cheery Lynn Birthday Owls

Hi Cheery Lynn fans!  I'm back today with a girly birthday card.  My ten year old daughter has a friend who apparantly HAD to have an owl card for her birthday.  This is the result.

I covered the clockwork middle parts of the owl bellies with glitter paper and glued on black rhinestones for eyes.  The owls were also popped up with foam dimensional tape.

Cheery Lynn Faith & Hope

Hi friends!  I'm back with a floral card.  I haven't made as many flowers lately and I've missed it.  There's something so soothing and maybe gratifying about making flowers.  I love how by changing the colors and how you bend the petals the look you can achieve is so different.

Because these flowers were so large I used the big fern leaf to complement them and added in some dandelions.

Cheery Lynn Thank You

Hi crafty friends!  Welcome to the blog today.  I'm back with another card I made using only three dies.  To create this background I used the Margarita Border die.  I cut it twice out of a soft gray paper, glued it to white card stock and then cut the edges.  The light blue base card is A2 size.  For a little extra punch of color I added a layer of dark gray card stock in between.    

  

The same dark gray was used to cut out the Thank You Circle which I glued to the Mandela Doily 2.  I popped the doily up using foam tape and then added glitter glue to all the points as well as the outside of the circle.  It's difficult to see in the photos but this card really sparkles.
