Vintage Themed Card with Cheery Lynn Designs

Monday greetings to you!  It's my day to host the blog over at Cheery Lynn Designs!

I have a vintage themed card to share with you today as it's one of my favorite style of card. There are several layers of our stackers as you can see, from our A2 Frames in Classic and Scalloped to the Coved Rectangles in Classic and Scalloped.

The Alpine Flourish Doily was the perfect size to layer into the design here. You can also hopefully see the subtle hint of snowflakes which are cut from vellum here.

Since the vintage image I've used includes thread spools in it, I used a tiny wooden one I had found in my local craft store. It is wrapped with a cut from one of our Tiny Expandable Borders and secured with glue.  I then used it with a stick pin for an embellishment with my florals.

Details of the floral cluster.

I finished the interior of my card simply with our new Dutch Daisy Boutique Stacker, then cut it again using the A2 Frames Rectangular Scalloped die to create the border. The Thank You #2 was added as the final step.

Vintage Card with Cheery Lynn Designs

Happy Monday crafty peeps!  It's my day to host the blog over at Cheery Lynn Designs today.

My card today features several of our stacker dies and a bit of a soft vintage design. I started by selecting my French Flair shape, and layered a Dutch Scalloped Square at an angle behind it. This really changed the shape and I loved the look of it together.

"Thinking Of You"

My next layer is the French Flair Doily Stacker which is cut in a soft gray plain card stock and adhered with foam squares. I added a touch of cheesecloth on top to give a bit of texture.

I finished the card with my Scalloped Coved Rectangle and Coved Rectangle layers featuring the sweet vintage image. These are attached with foam dots as well. The Add a Flourish is tucked in and tacked down with a bit of Glossy Accents. Sentiment Frame #2 is used to showcase the sentiment.

Vintage Monday with Cheery Lynn Designs!

Happy Monday crafty friends!  It's my day to host the blog over at Cheery Lynn Designs.

Today's project has a bit of dreamy vintage feel to it. I was so very inspired by our last Flowers challenge winner's Sathya's project color scheme, I thought I would use it for todays color inspiration. Thank you Sathya!

I started with a layer of vellum, then the gray Fiona's Magic Mirror Cut. A bit of cheese cloth was added on the bottom edge of the Mirror frame. Next the Celtic Oval Frame was tacked down with some Glossy Accents touched around the inner edge of the frame.

The Horizon Oval Boutique Stacker Frame was cut and then foam dots placed on it to add dimension.  Bits of cheese cloth were added all around to soften the frame and lace a bit more. The Tags 2 dies were cut and angled and attached to anchor my floral cluster. 

The bow is mixed in with the florals and leaves. This was such a fun and sweet card to put together!
