Hi Everyone, Today is the launch of the Cheery Lynn Designs
July 2015 release of new dies. This launch showcases amazing Halloween,
Christmas and New Word dies to name a few. Please head over HERE to see what my
Teamies have also been making with the new dies.
I have 2 projects to show you today, the first one is a
Trick or Treat bag which I'm sure would be lovely to give to extra special
Halloween visitors. I started off with a paper bag measuring approximately 5" x
7" excluding the handles. I cut a piece of patterned paper, rubbed over some
Picket Fence Distress stain to pale down the strong colours and give a shabby
feel, adding some stitching around it and distressing the edges.
The spiders web is a corner die which comes with the
Spider. I cut my web 4 times to form a full web layering in 2 colours for an
extra creepy feel and to highlight the black from the web. My spiders I also double layered with green.
For my Trick or Treat
sign I added Red Stickles and once dry I added Glossy Accents over the top
to give a look of dripping blood. I then Layered on to white card for a shadow effect.
My Trick or Treat border I also layered twice for a
shadow effect, aren't they so cute !
Finishing with my Pumpkin and a netted bow.

My next card showcases this cute Koala Bear. I decided to
give him a cute and cuddly feel as I thought he would look lovely on a baby
style card. I layered up my die cuts adding a little distress ink to them.
I
trimmed my French lattice frame to fit behind the back of my Dutch Scallop
frame for added detail.
My Koala was layered twice, coloured with Copics and a
little Silicone Glue added behind his nose.
To finish off I added a bow with a flower in the centre.

ReplyDeleteJulie, I went over to see what your teamies have made and wow - there is some wonderful inspiration there and some fabulous new dies!
ReplyDeleteI love your Halloween bag, it is amazing and the Koala bear is just adorable! Hugs, Anne xx
YAY!!! Halloween bag is so much fun!!! Love it! And the card with Koala bear is just too adorable!! What gorgeous dies on that card! Your projects are always so beautiful and inspiring! Once I saw a card with a ballerina and ballerina slippers on your blog and that is what inspired me to purchase the slippers die...I used on one of my newer creations. Thank you for all the inspiration and all the support :)
ReplyDeleteHi Julie, super lovely release, I LOVE the trick or treat border and the koala!!! You made two great samples, different but both very enjoyable to look at and so inspiring!! :) Hugs, Coco xx
ReplyDeleteJulie, the Halloween bag is an absolute treat in itself. Such wonderful use of the die-cuts to create a Halloween tale.
ReplyDeleteThe card might be in stark contrast with the cute Kola and soft, beautiful tones but it is another winner. You are Queen of the die-cuts, using them with such artistry.
Hope today is being kinder to you.
Wishes
Lynne
