Directions: Cut 4 panels from the Gift Ensemble die.  Assemble the box.  Cut flowers and frames from the patterned paper to decorate each side of the box.  For the front of the box, combine the cut paper flowers, as well as handmade flowers.  To make the flowers, stamp the Sun Kissed Fleur set using the 3D Stamp Paint.  Allow to dry and cut with the corresponding die. Shape the flowers and glue together.  Add a pearl to the center of the flowers.  Finish with a small bow towards the top of each side of the box.

Xyron and Bo Bunny Blog Hop Day 2

Welcome to Day 2 of the Xyron and Bo Bunny hop!  To find out all of the details, please visit the Bo Bunny and Ain't She Crafty Blog to see a full list of each day's participants and to find out how to win some awesome prizes!

I worked with the Bo Bunny Key Lime papers, and decided to make a beach-themed plaque.  It's already got me in the mood for summer.

     

 Take chipboard letters, turn them upside down and run through Xyron 5” Creative Station.

  

 

 Press the adhesive coated paper firmly on the letters, remove the backing, and place on the        wrong side of patterned paper.

    

                                                      

      Trim the letters as close as possible with the scissors.  Use a hole punch to help start the holes in the enclosed areas.   Use a file along the chipboard to finish neatly.  

                                                       

Measure the wooden plaque, and cut patterned paper to size.  Run through the Xyron 5” Creative Station, and apply to plaque.

 

                                                                                           

     Stamp image onto lightly patterned paper.  Apply adhesive and add to plaque.    Use DIY Foam Adhesive to attach chevron banner.    Glue paper covered chipboard letters to the banner.

4   Make a paper Hibiscus or other tropical flower.  Glue to the plaque.  Cluster Bo Bunny Trinkets around the flower.

Where Flowers Bloom so Does Hope

I love spring, when all of the flowers are blooming everywhere you look!  So even if your aren't much of a gardener, you can still enjoy the season with your own handmade flowers, using dies from Cheery Lynn Designs.

The flowers were made using the Medium Rose and the Shasta Daisy Strip. So they were super easy to put together.  I also really love the new Rum Punch Doily - it's so elegant!

Please join us this week for our Make it Manly challenge - and you could win a $20 gift certificate to the Cheery Lynn Designs store.

Imagine

This week, I will be sharing some creations at the Words or Whatever Blog.  Up first is this mixed media card.

I used one of the WOW AltaMATZ templates (Doily).  I traced around the entire design using a Aquarelle pencil, and then inked around the outside.  I misted this with water, so that the pencil would disperse.

I took the chipboard gate - painted it with Gesso, then inked it with a dark brown pigment ink, and added some glitter.  The Imagine title was inked to color it, and then I rubbed a little bit of Metallic 3D paint over it.

Heartfelt Creations Inspiration

Welcome back to another week of inspiration with my Heartfelt Creations goodies.  I've got another card to share with you today using the newest addition - the Sun Kissed Collection.  I am really enjoying using the new die/stamp sets that stamp and cut multiple flowers at once. They are really great!

Directions for a 5 x 7" card:
Stamp the background image on a light colored patterned paper, using the Harbor ink.  Add lace ribbon at the bottom of this layer.  Cut the two largest ovals from the Opulent Ovals set, and layer with dimensional foam.  Stamp the basket with brown ink.  Fussy cut the image.  Color the leaves and flowers with Copic markers.  Shade the basket with chalk ink. Stamp and cut two sets of the Sun Kissed Fleurs - one using the brown ink, and the other using the 3-D Stamp Paint. Shape the flowers and glue to the corresponding designs on the basket.  Finish the centers with pearls. Add a wired bow to the top of the oval die cut.

A Moment to Treasure with Cheery Lynn Designs

 

Time goes by so quickly. It's hard to imagine that this little girl would grow up to be the beautiful woman that she is today.  I am always in awe of my sister- of her strong spirit, her fierce love for her family, her compassionate heart, her incredible sense of humor.  The list could go on and on, but I want her to know that every moment I have spent with her has been a moment that I  treasure.

 

So enough of my sappiness.  Here are details of the layout, showing these fun flowers. I absolutely love these flower strips. I know I've said that before, but I think every time I use them, I am even more thrilled with them.

 

 

 If you don't have any yet, than you better make sure you play along with our weekly challenge - for your chance to win a $20 gift certificate.  This weeks theme is Dry Embossing.  We would love to see what you create with your favorite Cheery Lynn Designs!
