Easter Egg Hunt

Hi Everyone, today for my DT card at Cheery Lynn Designs I am sharing some more Easter inspiration with the super selection of Dies they have available.

I started by cutting out my chicks in lemon and white cardstock. I shaded the eggs with Tattered Rose Distress Ink and mounted them onto the yellow die cut chicks adding a drop of Black Liquid Pearls into their eyes.

My rabbit was shaded with Iced Spruce Distress ink and a fluffy Pom Pom tail added.

My eggs were cut out of Craft Consortium’s Wild Rose Paper Pad and mounted onto background paper and fussy cut around the edges, finishing with lots of pink gems being added onto them for sparkle.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter Weekend to all my lovely followers and thank you so much for the comments on my Springtime card, I was overwhelmed with all your kind words. Today for my DT post at Cheery Lynn Designs I decided to make a Spring card filled with Easter inspiration.

I started by layering 2 layers of paper onto my base card adding Stickles at the edge for a touch of sparkle. I layered on part of my doily as an accent, this helped my Basket pop from the design against the busy floral paper.

My Happy Easter was layered twice for a shadow effect, adding my branches and flowers which had been shaded with Copics.

My sweet Easter Chicks were shaded with Distress Inks. I coloured their feet and beaks with Copics and finished them by adding a little black liquid pearls onto their eye. Mounting them onto the Grass Border Strip.

My Basket I die cut in purple cardstock and then used our Special Effects technique demonstrated HERE to get the background. Layering in my Eggs with a touch of Silicone Glue and adding a little Satin Bow.

Thanks for stopping by today and good luck to everyone entering the Cheery Lynn Designs Current Challenge - Anything Goes.

Crafty Hugs,

Easter Chicks

Hi Everyone, today for my DT card at Cheery Lynn Designs I thought it would be nice to share an Easter card with Spring colours and these three gorgeous little Chicks from our recent CHA release.

Here are the steps on how to make it, this first photo shows the reverse side.

Using the French Flair Scalloped die cut the largest die in Orange and Green cardstock. Cut the Orange layer in half, down the middle and attach with adhesive onto the back of your Green layer for a shadow effect around the edges.

Repeat this process using the second largest French Flair Scalloped die and Yellow and Striped Pattern Paper.

Die cut Happy Easter in Orange, Yellow and Green cardstock offsetting and adhering each layer together.

Die cut your Easter Chicks in Orange and Yellow cardstock again slightly offsetting. Lift the Yellow layer of wing slightly up. On the reverse of your Chick lightly press the point of a Black Pen into the centre of the eye. This now defines the eye area.

Die cut your Heart Oval in White Cardstock and mount Yellow card in the coordinating die cut from the Classic Ovals.

Cut out your Shasta Daisy Strip in White Cardstock and using your Craft Dauber or a small ball of cotton wool begin tapping some Scattered Straw ink into all the centres.

Once dry shape petals on a foam mat with a stylus tool. Assemble layers up to desired effect with adhesive. Finally adding a layer of Flower Soft into the Centres with adhesive.

Die cut the Leaf Strip in Green and shape leaves on a foam mat with stylus tool.

Using a square card 5"7/8 by 5"7/8 start to adhere you layers onto your card as in photograph. Adhere Happy Easter with glue onto the Oval Centre and then layer onto the card with foam pads.

Finally arranging and adhering on the Chicks, Leaves and Flowers to the card to finish.

I hope you have all enjoyed my tutorial and feel inspired.

See you all next week.

Cheery Lynn New Release

Hi Everyone, We are all very excited at Cheery Lynn Designs as this is the first New Release of 2015 and is being launched at the CHA show. I feel so honoured and proud to know my cards will be on display at the Cheery Lynn Designs Stand.

I am showcasing 3 of the new dies today, so please also pop over to the Cheery Lynn blog HERE to see what my talented team mates are showcasing from the New Release. This is a fantastic Release giving you even more versatility with your die cuts, as you can make a variety of patterns with the new border dies and I had amazing fun working with them.

This first card shows one of the new sets of words. Once Upon A Time, I love this little saying as it is so Apt for many cards or scrapbook pages. I decided to use this on a baby card.

You will see in this first photograph I tattered the edges of my layers and then cut out strips from the Horizon frame and paper pieced layering on some ric rac.

Here I started to layer on a row of my corner dies in blue around my frame.

Here you will see another row being placed on.

I placed my ruler across my card to get my wording straight, double layering it.

My next card

For my Easter card I have used 2 other new dies,

Happy Easter which was layered up twice and I added some flowers from my Tiny Flower kit.

Now if you look down the sides of this card again you will see this lace pattern. This is one of our new clever border/edger dies which come in sets of 3 and can interlink together or you can use one at a time. You decide where you want to place it on your card to cut. They also compliment Doilies that were out in our previous release for even more versatility and choice to match up on your craft projects.
