Wish You Were Here


Hi Everyone, Can you believe it's the weekend once again and only another week until the clocks change here in the UK and the dark winter nights are upon us.

For my Cheery Lynn Designs DT card I have used some more of the new release dies. I stamped my postcard stamp, shaded it with Distress added some crackles and mounted onto the Alpine Flourish Doily die. I totally love all the detail on this die and shaded it also with distress. It gives a stunning Vintage look. The clever thing with this die is you have the option of having a solid centre to stamp on, add a sentiment to or place your centre coordinating die piece into it for a lace look.


My binoculars I die cut out in Grey and Black cardstock slightly off setting for a shadow effect. I then put some Glossy Accents onto the lens area and rubbed a little distress over to highlight.


A pretty Vintage style flower and some black gems were added to finish my Parisian themed card.

Hope you all have a Crafty Weekend.


Julie x

    Very shabby chic and very beautiful - I love how your binoculars turned out, you have given them some lovely dimension and the lenses look so realistic. Anne xx

    I love that alpine flourish Julie I just treated myself to the icicle die so will have to put this on my wishlist. Your stamp works beautifully on this gorgeous vintage card you have made. The autumn darkness is certainly rolling in. Enjoy your fab weekend xx

    So do we in France. I don't like the clocks changes, especially in winter.
    But I love your card ! This new doily is really exquisite, and the stamps are great.
    Have a great Saturday

    I do feel as though I am stepping through the streets of Paris on an Autumnal day with the sweet birds singing their songs of love to me.
    Gorgeous card brimming over with femininity.
