Hi everyone! Welcome to this month's Blog Hop with Cheery Lynn Designs! 

If you are coming from Julie's Blog you are on the right track. Otherwise start over HERE at the Cheery Lynn Designs Blog. 

Today, Im sharing with you a new embossing folder from IOE Plates called Birthday Oval. I used to parts of the folder, the oval Happy Birthday and the dots on the edges of the card. I wanted to make a card for a guy with no flowers and/or ribbon. Nautical theme is right up my alley. Perfect for a man.

There are a few die cuts on this card. I stamped a Happy Birthday sentiment from Verve on a "pierced stacker" in cream cardstock and then layered it with a larger teal "pierced stacker" The big "mayflower" was die cut in teal and cream. The "ship's anchor" was die cut in teal and then colored with a white signs pen. Lastly, I added three "starfish" with some fish netting in a few spots.

You Are Awesome With Cheery Lynn Designs

Hi everyone!! 

Today I thought I would share with you another super fast card using only one die from Cherry Lynn Designs! It is part of the new collection called "whimsical "you are awesome" To make this card I used one piece of white cardstock 5 x 12 and scored at 6 inches. The a fun patterned paper cut at 4.75 and 5.75 inches. Not sure if this card would be considered CAS? Im thinking Maybe? lol

Add some piece of ribbon and a bow on top.  Don't forget the pearl bling! 

Here is how I raised the sentiment. I ran a piece of white cardstock through, then I ran a piece of white foam through...I did it twice to make sure it cut it out perfect. Then glue the two pieces together. Done!

Just A Little Note With Cheery Lynn Designs

Hi everyone! Today 'm sharing with you a new card using some of the new release with Cheery Lynn Designs. The beautiful "Quarterfoil Frame #2" is the background in white cardstock. I was thinking it is like an elegant lattice. So I wanted to use papers that were soft and elegant. 

The flowers and leaves/ ferns were die cut using the f"loral bouquet kit" In the centers of the flowers I used gala glitz in pink. On the shite sprays I placed some white flower soft. Kind of looks like q-tips! lol 

The sentiment was stamped in pink distressing ink and then fussy cut out.  

Love the sentiment in a wave...

The "dandelions" were die cut in white and distressed with the pink ink. 

Then there is a bit of sparkle using a glitter pen.

Three Cheers To the Red, White and Blue!

Hi Happy Father's Day  to all you dad's out there! Welcome to the Summer Coffee Blog Hop! 

I somehow missed the first day, but this morning I was able to put together this card using the beautiful digi "Three Cheers" stamps from Verve! Thank you so much Julee! 

I love the 4th of July! It is my favorite holiday of the year and the combination of the adorable patriotic coffee cups, sentiment and the fabulous "coffee"die cut ( I already owned)  it came together quickly! 

The card is based off a sketch from My Favorite Things #285 The DT had a n amazing fringe die cut that is now on my wish list! Meanwhile, I used the striped red and white paper to follow my theme. I added some bling for the feeling of fireworks....and a little glitter to the top of the coffee cups.

Here are the coffee cups...mine are printed at .8 x 1.5 inches, then colored with copic markers. 

Here is the free digi "Three Cheers" from Verve...until June 30, 2016. Than you again! 

Here is the awesome sketch! Thank you!

Happiness...

Hello everyone! Happy Saturday!

Today Im sharing with you a new card inspired by a few challenges. The Viva La Verve June 2016 sketch and the Cupcake Inspirations #364. Im also entering this card in some other challenges too.

So, I thought I would bring out my old Heartfelt Creations stamps and die cuts. "The daisies and leaves" I haven't stamped in the while and I forgot how really beautiful they look! In the centers of the flowers I used some gala glitz. 

The Horizon Fishtail Banners are one of my favorite die cuts from Cheery Lynn Designs. The black frame is from Spellbinders and the sentiment is from Verve stamps. 

The patterned paper is part of Colorbok that I bought from Walmart recently for 5 dollars! There are 50 pieces of cardstock....so I thought it was an amazing steal! lol

Here is the beautiful sketch...Thank you!

From "Owl" Home To Yours "Blog Hop" New Whimsical Release with Cheery Lynn Designs

Hi everyone! Welcome to this month's New Release with Cheery Lynn Designs. It is called Whimsical and there are several fun die cuts. If you are coming from Julie's Blog then you are in the right spot, otherwise you can start over at Cheery Lynn Designs Blog. 

Today Im using 2 of the New Release dies, Whimsical Treehouse and Whimsical Owl. There are several older dies used for this project too. 

The Treehouse has several layers and several pop dots. There is flower soft on the tree and on the grass border. Rarely do I use flower soft, so I figured this would be one good reason to use that stash that Im hoarding! lol The sentiment was printed up on the computer and then die cut with smallest horizon fishtail banner.

A closer view of the treehouse. Such intricate, beautiful details on the wood. 

A closer view of the owl and some flowers made using  sweet christine and flourish #13

I added a little green bow to the owl and of course some wiggly eye.

Hello Friend With Cheery Lynn Designs

Hello friends! Today I have a really Clean and Simple card for you to make using one Cheery Lynn Designs Die! It is part of the May 2016 New Release called "Cherry Blossom Branch" It's Beautiful! If there is one die cut that you want in your collection...it is for sure this one....

I tend to add lots of layers to many of my cards and of course I'm a pop dot addict. However, I also think that Clean and Simple cards are beautiful too! 

The die was cut 4 times, twice in green and twice in red. Then fussy cut out the red flowers and glue on top of the green. add pearls and your done! The sentiment was stamped in the corner. It is super flat except for the pearls but it should be easy to mail. Takes about 5 minutes to make. :)

Here you can see a close up the intricate details in the flowers and the leaves.  I layered red cardstock and a patterned paper underneath for more color, but it also looks great plain. 

I LOVE red! and this is the cover of the die cut that inspired me to make this card today.

The Sea is Calling...

Hi TGIF! 

Today I'm sharing with you a new card that I made this morning using more of the Graphic 45 "Voyage Beneath The Sea" These papers are truly stunning! So colorful and vibrant! This is a 5 x 6 inch card and I did a bit of fussy cutting of the mermaid and the starfish and shell. This card was also inspired y my latest project using the same line of papers. You can see it HERE. 

The flowers were pre made and it was part of a huge bunch that I found at yard sale at a local scrapbook store. I also added some pop dots and white pearls. I love the sentiment of "The Sea is calling and I must Go" especially this time of the year here in Arizona! Think it is only 100! LOL

Another closer view....It is layered, but not too bulky to not be mailed out.
