Color and Bling with Cheery Lynn Designs

Happy Monday crafty friends! It's my day to share a project over on the Cheery Lynn Designs blog today.

I had a little fun with a brighter color palette this week. I was inspired by our all new challenge this week and included a bit of bling to play along as well.

I love using pattern paper to create flowers, the results are always very interesting and surprising at times designs! Cheery Lynn Design dies make creating pretty flowers so easy. Here I've used the Sunflower, Shasta Daisy and Miniature Rose. 

I cut the largest Tags 4 twice, once from pattern paper and a second from vellum. A simple layered stagger of the tags was a perfect place for my sentiment.

Time for Spring with Cheery Lynn Designs

Happy Monday to you!  It's my day over on the Cheery Lynn Designs blog to share a project.

This weekend was a big step forward in the direction of Spring for us here in the United States. We observed Daylight Savings Time where some of us move our clocks forward an hour and gain a bit more sunshine in the later part of our day.

In honor of this event, today's project theme is… time!

You can see the de-bossed background kraft paper that I used a bit of pink ink on. To achieve the effect, I simply rubbed my pink chalk ink lightly onto the raised metal embossing plate, then embossed per usual. (Be careful not to press down or you'll have more smudge marks than you might want.) 

The effect was a subtle pattern with a hint of color.

I've layered our Pocket Watch with the Ship's Compass, then added the Sentiments Frame #2 on top of those. I did trim off the directional stations from the compass, and kept the flourish to use under the 12. The relief hearts from the Frills and Hearts Border and the clock hands from the Pocket Watch were re-purposed as random embellishments to add a touch of whimsy.

Three Legged Friends are Best

Happy Tuesday to you!  I'm very excited about sharing my project with you today! It features the all new "Happy Tails" collection by BoBunny.

 

"Three Legged Friends Are Best!"

I was thrilled to get this collection so I could scrap our family dog, Radar. He is extra special, gentle and sweet. These photos of him capture his soft nature and I was so excited to scrap them! You can see I've altered the title, he was born with three legs and is just a joy in every single way.

I started my page by trimming the Stripes paper to a 10x10 and then decided maybe I wanted to try a different look, so I took the center point and then created a big triangle. I matted it and then collaged the fun embellishments in the line, adding a few die cuts of my own along the way.

A Bit of Spring with Cheery Lynn Designs

Happy Monday to you!  It's my day to share a project over on the Cheery Lynn Designs blog today.

I decided to go with a bit of a Spring theme for my project. The yellow reminds me of sunshine and I wanted to see the effect of some ombre papers in a few die cuts.

"Hello" (A2 sized card)

I used my Fancy Corner Cuts 4 for the pretty details on the upper corners of my yellow base layer. Next, I added the Polynesian Sails Oval doily, topped by a medium Horizon Boutique Oval Stacker Frame in a wood grain pattern paper.  This final layer was adhered with foam dimensional squares.

The Shasta Daisy and my Dainty Bows were cut from ombre paper. The Victorian Romance Flourish was cut apart and tucked under my flower, then I added a Mini Butterfly with Angel Wing on the upper right of it. A few gems and Stickles give the butterfly a little sparkle. The Tiny Fanciful Flourish is cut from a glassine bag.
