Cheery Lynn Designs - Shaker Dies Blog Hop

Hi everyone. It's blog hop day at Cheery Lynn Designs and we are all super excited to be sharing our designs with the fun new Shaker Dies.

We have all been assigned a different Shaker die to use for the hop and I was given the Heart Die along with the Love You and Heart Shakers.

My card is made in a Shabby Chic style adding Silver Embossing around my Shaker Heart by rubbing my small Versamark ink pad around the edges and heat setting my Powder in place. My shakers were placed under the acetate and I also added some Glass Glitter for extra sparkle.

The edges of my card were tattered and embossed. My flowers I inked in the centres adding some bling into the centres of the smaller flowers and Silver Flower Soft into the larger ones.

I had a lot of fun making this card and they make a great noise when shaken. Please check out the video HERE on how to make these fun Shakers.

I'd love if you left a comment before hopping to your next stop on the hop - Lisa's blog.

Please carry on the hop to see the rest of the teams inspiration and to be in with a chance of winning a $20 shopping spree at Cheery Lynn Designs.

Thanks for stopping by today,

Flower Card

Hello everyone, thank you so much for all the wonderful comments I received on the Cheery Lynn Blog Hop day, I enjoyed reading them so much. The current challenge at Cheery Lynn Designs is Handmade Flowers so I couldn't resist joining in the fun for my DT card this week using their wonderful new Sunflower set.

I started by die cutting out my Cardmaker die and trimmed to be the perfect size to Matt and layer onto my Kraft Cardstock and card which measures around 6 inches square.

My Sunflower I made in the same way to this card HERE, but this time I just added the leaves onto it. I love the size of this flower as a main focal image on a card.

I would love to see a Hummingbird in real life, they look such beautiful little birds. I die cut mine out twice and shaded with inks, after looking at some photos on Google. I then heat embossed with Clear Embossing powder and went around the edges with a little Gilding Wax, layering up both layers, finishing with a drop of Black Liquid Pearls onto the eye.

My sentiment was stamped onto my banner and I fussy cut a shadow background to make it pop.

If you haven't seen the New North American Release dies please check them out HERE, and don't forget to join in the fun on our BI-Weekly Challenge with a chance of winning a $20 spending spree at Cheery Lynn Designs.

Have a lovely weekend and Happy Crafting.

Hugs,

Cheery Lynn Designs Jan 2016 Blog Hop

Welcome to the Cheery Lynn Designs January New Release Blog Hop. We are all so excited to showcase the fabulous new dies that were just released. I am the first blog on the hop so at the end of my post just click on Lisa's name to get to your next stop on the hop.

Cheery Lynn make the most amazing Bird Dies with incredible detail and for my DT post today I am using the newly released Stork and Baby die. The Stork comes separate from the baby so you have different variations of using this die.

I started off by using my Hearts embossing sheet with white cardstock and rubbed over lightly with some Distress ink to highlight the hearts. My Doily was cut out and backed onto my Angel Wing. I then cut in half and placed at each end of my card.

My Stork and Baby were shaded with Copics, I added a little gem and some black Liquid Pearls to its eye and highlighted the swirl detail with a glitter pen. Mounting onto another heart embossed mat and layering onto my Its a Boy banner.

Thanks so much for your visit today and I would love if you leave me a comment to let me know you have stopped by on the BLOG HOP. Be sure to head over to your next stop which is LISA. Follow through to the end of the hop and leave a comment on the Cheery Lynn Designs Blog too for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate.

Hello Friend

Hi there fellow bloggers, I hope you all had a lovely weekend. Today I am sharing with you a card made with the most amazing 12x12 paper pad called Bloom Beautiful from Craft Consortium. When I first saw this pad I just ooh'd and ahh'd at every sheet and I am continuing to drool over this paper pad every time I open it. Please check it out HERE.

I started off by die cutting my Birdcage in Chipboard and adding some DecoArt Crackle paint. Whilst still wet I sprinkled a little Distress powder in Milled Lavender and dried it with my heat gun so the paint would bubble a bit more for texture. Finishing off with a little gilding wax and fussy cut birds from the paper pad.

I sprayed my paper with a little water on the reverse side and gathered in to look like a curtain, drying in place with my heatgun. I added 2 rows of stitching, a handmade Rose along with a stamped sentiment and a ribbon to finish.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Documented Card

Hi Everyone, sorry I have been rather quiet in Blogland this week. One of my darling Siamese Cats - Simba took seriously ill over a week ago and has required 24 hour nursing, so all my energy has had to focus on him. I was back at the Vet yesterday and he now feels confident he will make a full recovery, I do hope so as he is a beloved member of our family. Today I am showcasing some more of the April 2015 New Release for my DT card at Cheery Lynn Designs as this week's challenge is - Make it Manly.
