Valentines with Cheery Lynn Designs and Sweet Stamps

This is a very FULL post today!  You are getting a 2 FOR TUESDAY, a DOUBLE WHAMMY a 2 FOR 1 deal today. 

Since this is my 1st post for SWEET STAMPS, let me share my creation I have made with their things first.

 

Sweet Stamps will be having challenges for all to participate in.  The winner of these weekly challenges will receive a $20.00 shopping spree at Sweet Stamps.com.

This week our challenge is PINK.  Create something PINK.  Here is what I came up with. 

 

 

The Sweet Stamps I have used in this card are:  CHERRIES 311 and CHEERY HELLO 9024.

 

 

Just look at all that PINK!  Do you all know how much I love Cherries? 

 

 

The inside of the card gets a Cherry too!

 

 

One last look at my card, I just love this one!

 

 

Be sure to head on over to Sweet Stamps blog.  See what the other Design Team members have created for you to look at for the PINK CHALLENGE.  Remember, if you play along and you are the weekly winner, that $20.00 shopping spree at Sweet Stamps.com could be yours!

 

 

Now we will switch gears and move on to my Cheery Lynn Design project!

 

I think it is great fun to dedicate posts to people who have inspired me.  So, todays post is dedicated to CASSIE BOX.  She has inspired me for today’s project.  I have to say she is the BANNER MASTER. 

 This is my CHEERY LYNN version of what she does best!  Actually she does it ALL best!! 

I have wanted to make one of these for a while.  Have you seen a ROUND one of these somewhere?   I haven’t and thought it’d be great to try.

 I love the way it has turned out. 

My LOVE banner.

Here is a close up of each letter. I used some large letters I had and on each letter I used the OPTIMISTIC font dies to spell LOVE.

The heart buttons are from the BUTTONS5 set. The ladybugs are from LADY BUG FRAME.

 

The backgrounds and base are made up of the CIRCLE – SCALLOPED STACKERS
and the ITALIAN FLOURISH DOILY. 

 Let me pause a moment to say here, that the ITALIAN FLOURISH DOILY, just might be the best die in the world.  I am so in love with this doily die!

 

My flowers are my own made up version of the roly poly’s you see everywhere. But you have not seen those roly poly’s paired with these beautiful leaves from the DIMENSIONAL LARGE LEAVES #1 collection.

 

 

There you have it! My Valentine’s Day banner!

 

Hopefully I have inspired you!  There is still plenty of time to create things for Valentines.  Get your dies, paper and glue out and make something fabulous!

 This has been your Cheery Lynn designer JEANNIE, hope you all make yourselves a great day!
