Recycled Flowers

My sister Gini and I love to hit the thrift doors and see what type of treasures we can find.  There is always something that can be altered or reused.  Believe it or not, these flowers/leaves were created using an antique dictionary.  So love everything about them.
Just a bit of Glimmer Mist, ink and of course Cheery Lynn Dies and you too can make these super chic flowers.

Here are all the dies I used on this card

Have a great weekend. 

Step It Up!!!

I hope you have been enjoying the latest release from Cheery Lynn this week.  It's just simply stunning.  This is a step card I created for Cheery Lynn and KaiserCraft...using the latest from each.  The paper line is Needle and Thread, KaiserCraft.  Also so vintage, shabby, wonderful!!!!

Of course all the flowers are handmade from the latest flower strips...YUM!!!

I cut down the doilies to work perfectly in the center of my stair card.  It adds such an elegance.  The City Girl Edger was used to create the paper lace at the bottom of the card.   I just love this card so much and hope you do too.  Have a great weekend and I'll see you next week. 

Here are all the dies used on this piece:

Bread Box Tutorial with Cheery Lynn and Scor-Pal

Everybody loves a warm loaf of bread and there no better gift that something from the heart, but you might need a bread box to encase your precious gift.  Lucky you today I have a tutorial for a mini bread box that will come in perfect for those occasions.  So let's jump right in.

Step One: Cut card stock 8 1/2 x 11.  Score at 2 3/4 and continue to do so on all four sides.

Step Two : Score at the 1/2 inch mark and again do so on all four sides. 

Step Three: Cut Away the corners as shown below.  Also cut slits as shown. 

Step Four: Fold and crease all your score lines and tape using Scor-Tape.  

Step Five: Cut 2 design card stock pieces 5 1/4 x 2"  and 2 pieces 2 3/4 x 2 and adhere them all to the box.  Remove your tape cover and tape your box together and DECORATE!!! 

Here are some completed pictures of my bread box. 

I made handmade flowers using my Cheery Lynn Dies along with the fancy edge and bee...here is a complete list of all my Cheery Lynn Dies I used for this project.

Remember You are Loved

Everybody loves to be reminded they are loved.  This is a small wall plaque I created using KasierCraft's Suga Pop Collection that will remind anyone that yeap...they're loved.  

I used some of KaiserCraft's beautiful flowers nestled in with some handmade flowers using Cheery Lynn Dies.  The cluster is just wonderful all mixed together. 

The rhinestone letters were white and I colored them with copics...that's a great way to blend any of your embellishments.  

Be Unique Easel Card

This is just one of those cards...I LOVE.  The collection is Base Coat from KaiserCraft and well, I think it's speaks for itself...it's just plain cool.  

The flowers were created using Cheery Lynn dies. They look so great mixed up in the corner.
