Birthday Boy!

Hello!I'm here with another card for Cheery Lynn Designs.  Those of you that know me know how much I love to add texture to my projects, and what better way than by embossing plates!

   The little critters on the Turtles and Frogs Embossing Plate are sooo cute!! After embossing, I brushed on a little chalk to emphasize the textured pattern. The Celtic Chain Border is the perfect boyish accent!

Love You Forever

Hello! It is time for the February Sketch at My Creative Sketches! Of course I used my dies from Cheery Lynn Designs to bring it all together! I really wanted to keep this soft with a romantic feel, and the these elegantly detailed dies with a combo of soft colors I was really able to let the photos pop!

My Creative Scrapbook February Tips

Hello! I'm here with another layout using the February Main Kit from My Creative Scrapbook.

 

 I want to share a quick fun tip! I love the soft elegant look of doilies added to layouts and cards. The Prima has such beautiful ones printed on their packaging that I just couldn’t resist using it!

After carefully removing the flowers, I cut the packaging apart. Use caution when removing the adhesive, the printed doily will rub off! I left the adhesive on. It really doesn’t show up. The area could easily be covered with an embellishment like a butterfly, button, or heart!

The packaging will cut easily with a hand scissors.

I used one of the cut doilies in creating a card!

One more great way to extend the goodies in your kit…It is to beautiful to throw away!

Best Wishes

Hello! Today I have a card featuring some of the new winter dies from Cheery Lynn Designs.

The card base is cut using the Scalloped Rectangle Reflections Boutique set. I added texture to the white portion of the background using the Petite Hearts Embossing Plate. I added some trim from the Expandable Tiny Borders plate, and Lady Kate Edger for lace.

The flower cluster was created using Build a Flower #3 to create the yellow flower. Cutie Fringe 4 makes the most adorable spiky flowers, shown here in burgundy. The Daisy Strip has three different sizes on one die, making cutting so much quicker! Two different sizes are tucked into the bouquet. Foliage is from Build a Flower #3, Rose Leaf Strip, Stacker Flower #1 Leaf, and Olive Branches. To the bottom right corner is the new Best Wishes Phrase, and a Mini Butterfly fluttering about.

Love is in the Air

Hello! I'm here today with a card for Cheery Lynn Designs! The challenge this week is to add a flourish.

I cut the base of my card using the largest of the Scalloped Circle Stackers dies, layered with the Classic Circle Silver Stackers. To add a touch of elegance, I added the French Pastry Doily. Staggering the Two of Hearts, and adhering with foam adhesive adds texture. Love Sentiment (the set of two, this is the largest) is layered atop the Sentiment Frame #2 is perfect any time of the year! Darling Daisies are the ideal dainty finishing touch. Foliage from Mini Fanciful Flourish, Small Leaves 2, and Wreath Strip. Be sure to enter for your chance to win the $20 shopping spree!
