Happy Summer

Hi everyone today for my DT card at Cheery Lynn Designs I am sharing inspiration using some of their fab Nautical Dies on my card which could easily be adapted onto a Scrapbook layout.

My card measures approximately 6 inches square and I started by adding some torn Shabby layers to my card using Maja Design papers along with some cheesecloth, micro beads and lace.

My Doily and Angel Wing were added to the centre of my card with foam strips along with an accent of the Ships Helm.

My Lighthouse was cut out in 2 patterned papers to form the stripes and backed with cream cardstock. My Anchor I highlighted the chain with a bronze coloured Promarker. I added some shells and dried flowers to compliment my Starfish and Sand Dollar Dies.

Cheery Lynn Dies Used:

DL103A Italian Flourish Doily Wing

DL103 Italian Flourish Doily

B384 Set Of 2 Lighthouses

B385 Ships Helm

B279 Sand Doll-ar and Starfish

B394 Ships Anchor

M4 Circle Classic

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope you feel inspired to making a Summer card.

Crafty Hugs,

Make a Wish

Hi Everyone, thanks so much for all your lovely comments on my Halloween card and my Bird card last week, it was lovely to read them. This week I was inspired by the image of this little Sailor boy to make a nautical themed card for my DT post at Cheery Lynn Designs.

My Lighthouse was cut out twice in blue Cardstock and once in white. I layered the White cardstock on to the blue, slightly offsetting for a shadow effect and distressed with ink at the edges. Next I fussy cut my blue stripes out and glued in place. I coloured the roof on the house with a brown Copic pen.

My Anchor was coloured with a brown and gold pen and a little Distress powder added for a rust effect.

I love the different designs you can get from the Lady Kate Edger and you can move it right along whatever your length of paper matching up as you go.
