Vintage Lace Fancy Birdhouse

Hello crafty friends and Happy Tuesday to you all!
Today I have a super sweet card I created using Cheery Lynn Dies, and some Vintage Lace papers. Love the Bird house, its absolutely Gorgeous! I decided to just distress it a little and add some viva pearls to decorate it a bit.

The card base is 5 3/4" x 5 3/4" and is a cream card stock. Next I added layers of the Vintage Lace design papers and card stock.

For the greenery I used Cheery Lynn's Olive Branches,Flourish #1 , Flourish # 3, and Tiny flowers kit for all the flowers. Love how small they are, and I think they go perfectly with this beautiful bird house. I did add some stickles to the centers of each of the flowers, and distressed each flower using a blue ink.

The bird house was cut using the coordinating design paper, and then backed with the same blue card stock. I distressed the bird house using a blue ink, and did that lightly, as to not overpower the beauty of the birdhouse. Next I decided to add some pearl dots using the viva pearl pen.

Cheery Lynn Supplies used:
B376 Tiny Flower Kit
CAFLRS-3 Flourish #3
B147 Olive Branches
B558 Fancy Bird House 
CAFLRS-1 Flourish #1
Big Sister Die cutting machine
Best Glue Ever


Other supplies:
Viva Pearl Pen
Stickles
Ink
Sewing
Bazzill card stock and design paper

I love the look of this card and the Shabby Chic/Vintage feel it gives. Super fun to create, as I always enjoy working with Cheery Lynn Dies! Hope you enjoyed my post for today!

Shy Bears Harvest Time!



Hello everyone and Happy Wednesday to all! Today I have a super fun Harvest card I created for I Brake for Stamps. I chose for this card to use this DARLING "Harvest Shy Bear", isn't he just too cute??!!!! I LOVE these bears, and I Brake for stamps has a large collection of them.


I love this time of year, as all the leaves on the trees are changing and of course now we are loosing them all, but  it looks so beautiful. I hate to see it all leave, then we will have ugly upon us until snow comes. I have to say though summer is my favorite, and then Fall! So when I colored him up (Harvest Shy Bear)I chose to use some fall colors and then some blue. I LOVE the blue on this one! The paper line I chose for this is an old one called Autumn Harvest by Bazzill.

 I also added a tad bit of stickles to the leaves as I wanted some glitz to my image.

I also made a BIG bow using Really Reasonable Ribbon for my card today, they are leftover ribbons :) I did add a cabochon to the center of my bow.

For the Frames I used Cheery Lynn Design Dies Pierced Stacker #3 XL-21

To see all the DARLING shy bears that I Brake for Stamps has, please visit here!

I'm loving the colors on this card, as there are so many, but mostly you see the blue,yellow and red. I have hints of pink & Green on here as well. We were to be inspired by the Mood Board, and you can see that here!

Next one is cut 4 1/4" x 2 1/2" and then the red dp panel is 4" x 2 1/4" all glued using ATG gun, and then added my sewing with the sewing machine

Spellbinders- super simple, just cut white printed card stock by bazzill using spellbinders corner brackets. I did add some Enamel Dots to these.

It's funny, when I was all done with my card, I was taking the photo's and thinking something is missing...hmmmmm I thought maybe it was a BIG BOW!!!!LOL NO..... I thought maybe some brads or something, as I am used to lots of layers and embellishing.

Layers-then cut my brown card stock at 5 3/4" x 5 3/4", the Polka dot(crate paper bundled up Noel) design paper is cut at 5 1/2" x 5 1/2",I did add 2 strips of another design paper down the left side, it is bazzill (Dino Mite sharp tooth) and then sewn together. Next the brown card stock panel is cut at 5 x 2 3/4"  and then the design paper (calico state fair)at 4 3/4" x 2 1/2", and sewn together.

Vintage Auto image was stamped in Memento black ink, and stamped on white card stock, then colored with copics E57, T0 , and C5, and then cut down to 4 x 2 1/2" and then I distressed the edges with antique Linen. Its layered on brown card stock, and that is cut at 4 1/4" x 2 3/4". No sewing to that layer

Today's post is going to be a short one, as I wanted to share my card designed for today's Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge. I try to join in on these at least 2 times a week, it helps to get some cards done for the year.

I loved working with today's sketch, as its a little different. I wanted to add some flowers, so I used the Spellbinders dies for these. They are done by distressing, and then using the glass Technique, and you can find that in my Tutorials. For the centers on these, I did add some red Glitter Glass. Always love using these, and it gives a little bit of a different look.

 

The Design paper is Bazzill, and so are the card stock pieces. I added sewing to each layer on my card, love how it embellishes the layers.

 

Tag- is spellbinders, and I cut it 2 times. Once in white, and the other in black. My sentiment is from "I Brake For Stamps" LOVE all the selection you can choose from. If you would like to SAVE 10% be sure to used SAVE10CHERYL at checkout.

Update on my Amaryllis flower

 

I have never seen this bloom before so it was super exciting taking photo's of it daily. I thought it would have 1 bloom(one flower) but it has 4 in each stem. Currently the other stem is working on opening all for, so I will have 8 flowers on this. I am not sure how long they will stay, but I am enjoying the beauty of these! I've had this for 2 years, and this is the 1st year its bloomed for me....hehehehe ok just had to share!

Thank you for looking and have a lovely day!

Hippity Hoppity Easter is today!!!Happy Easter!

 

Hello everyone and Happy Easter to all!! Today's card was created for this past Friday's F4A challenge "Bunny Hop" on Splitcoaststampers & for my Daughter Breanna for Easter. My kids are all grown, and I felt I needed to make a card this year. Normally I do a candy box, or basket, but this year I think a card and chocolate is good :) hehehehe

 

The bunny I chose for this challenge is from Alota Rubber stamps. Lately you've been seeing me use more and more of those stamps, well to be honest, I have Binders full of these stamps, and some drawers too. I figured they should be used, and not sitting. Its been so nice to get back into stamping, as before I was mainly focused on dies, well now I can combine and use a little of both :) NICE!

The Sentiment is from ODBD(Our Daily Bread Design) and is stamped in Memento black ink on the cut out stitched circle that is a CottageCutz die. Now the heart one behind is Spellbinders, and its cut in Yellow Bazzill Bling Card Stock. Oooo I LOVE this card stock!!! Its absolutely Beautiful!!!

 

For the patch of flowers, I used these plastic type flowers, I bought at the warehouse sale a few years back. I did stock up on them. And for beneath the flowers I punched out green Bazzill bling card stock using Martha Stewarts branch punch.. The Yellow brads are also from the warehouse sale, as I think back then I bought 20 for 10.00 but if you spent 20, you saved 5.00 off, so I would buy 40 for 15.00, and that is a DEAL!! Also the one year Ibought a HUGE box of embellishments and stickers for like 24.00 out the door. it was amazing!!! Ok back to my card....heheheheheh

 

The ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon, and the paper is My Creations Inc. I had this paper for years just sitting in stacks of sheets of 12 x 12 design papers. I am so HAPPY I found it!!

I did add some stickles to my bunny. I love the glittery look it gives.

 

Hope you all are enjoying your Easter with Family & Friends!!

hugs to all,

Cheryl
