Cheery Lynn Funny Dog Valentine


Hi everyone!

Today I'm sharing a Valentine card I made for over on the Cheery Lynn blog.


 I'm back with Funny Dog....and this time...SHE's sitting in a pile of hearts ...notice the bow in her hair from the Merry Christmas Gift envelope set:)

  I made the pile of hearts with the Bohemian Word set...the heart is in the middle of the word love. The other hearts are from the Sweetheart Candy set...I added 2 at the top.

Valentines!

I decided to make a few tags for some Valentine gifts using CAS-Friday's scalloped tag set.

The tiny wreath is from Reverse Confetti, so is the word love. The hearts are cut out with Memory Box stitched hearts.




I added an enamel dot, some ribbon and bakers twine.

I made a valentine card with Cheery Lynn's Garden of Love die.

 I love the pretty swirls and flowers! I inlaid the word "love" and also the flowers.

 For my hearts I added Impression Obsession's Cupid holding 2 tiny hearts.

The word "you" is from Cheery Lynn's Love Gift Envelope set....it has 3 tiny sentiments in it that I find I use all the time!

Cheery Lynn Sweetheart Valentine


Hi everyone!

Time to share a card I made for over at the Cheery Lynn blog today!


I found some fun heart patterned paper to start it out with, then kept to those colors for the rest of the card.


I added some stitched rectangles and some adorable sweethearts at the top.

Here are some of the cute sayings:

 I LOVE this set!!! 
It reminds me of my school days...putting special hearts into my valentines for my classmates!

The word LOVE is from the NEW Bohemian Word set, I cut it out 3 times for some dimension. Then I added a flower at the bottom. A bit of glimmer spray and an enamel dot finished the card.

Cheery Lynn Two of Hearts for the Paper Players



Hi everyone!

Joanne has a sketch for us this week at The Paper Players:


 

I turned it and came up with this Valentine card:



I cut out some scalloped squares from Taylored Expressions Build a Tag 2 in red and black. Then I cut out some squares from an embossed sheet of paper for the centers. I backed all that on a strip of designer paper from my scrap box.

The star of the card is the pretty heart in the middle.

 It's from Cheery Lynn's Two of Hearts die set. The heart you see is the smaller one of the two. Then I added a Sweetheart in the center, also from Cheery Lynn, that says,"Love." I cut out the "you" from Cheery Lynn's Love gift envelope set to add at the bottom.




Hope you will join is this week at The Paper Players!

Memory Box Stitched Hearts






Jaydee has a CAS flower challenge for us at The Paper Players this week:





It's fun to think of flowers in the middle of winter and all this snow!

I decided to make a very "spring like" card and used some Lawn Fawn pretty plaid paper.


The heart is cut out in pink with Memory Box stitched heart layers. The tiny flowers are from Impression Obsessions flower bouquet. I backed it all on an Avery Elle wonky stitched rectangle. The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions Berry Special stamp set.

I can't wait to see the gallery filled with flowers!


I hope you will join us for this fun challenge at The Player Players!

Now for my card....I am showcasing the NEW Bohemian Sun die.



I cut it out in both yellow and black, and popped it up to give it some dimension. If you look closely below, you can see how the tiny rays around the sun can be popped up a bit too:




I also used the new Indie Border die, I thought it looked great with the patterned paper I found in my stash, and cut it out in white.

The sentiment "peace" is also from the new release, called the Bohemian Word set.

 I had to smile when I saw that set, WOW does it bring me back to the 70's and my high school years! We wore "peace" on everything....I had a necklace and a tshirt I just loved. 
The set also has the words LOVE and HELLO. SO much fun!! I can't wait to make some cards for my old classmates....in psychedelic colors of course!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!


Your next stop on the blog hop is back to Cheery Lynn's Blog!
