2nd Post of the Day
Oooh, I'm so excited and extremely proud! :) Not only do I have lots of my cards on display representing Cheery Lynn at the CHA show, but today sees the launch of the NEW RELEASE DIES, and I have to say they are AMAZING! :)
This has to be the biggest and most stunning new release yet, with gorgeous doilies, flowers, 3d pockets/pouches/gift bags, words, cutie fringes and borders and my absolute favourite - MINI TAGS! :) I actually had an input in some of the mini-tag designs, and requested small tag dies that you can stamp your sentiments on and layer them up in contrasting backing card. They are ACE!
My top card uses the beautiful new doily - Chasing Rainbows, some super-cute Tiny Things with Wings (featuring bumbly-bees, ladybugs, dragonflies, and birds), Leaf Edger Border and the really gorgeous Daisy Strip, where you can cut multiple layers of daisies in different sizes all in one go!
My second card again uses the Chasing Rainbows Doily die, Cutie Fringe border (rolled into the tiny aster type flowers), Lady Kate Edger border, leaves, new words and some fab Mini Tags - even the holes line up when you layer them! :) There are also some mini doilies this time too, which are so cute!
If you want to see more of the gorgeous new dies, then please hop over to the Cheery Lynn Inspiration blog and see what the rest of the talented DT have come up with.
All dies used on the above projects are:
Chasing Bumble-Bees & Daisies:
B187 - BAF#2 (leaf)
A196 - Darling Daisies (for the smaller layers)
Missing You:
Thanks so much for visiting my blog today and have a smashing weekend,

Well so much for me trying to cut down on my stash spending! I'm going to have to get the doily, winged things and daisy strip although whether I'll be able to make anything as lovely as this is doubtful!! Hugs, Tracey x

Both gorgeous creations Alison. The top one is really different to your usual cards as it doesn't have an image, but when I saw the cute little bee in the middle, it made me smile. He must be in heaven with all those fabulous flowers around him. They're layered beautifully.

Hi Alison. I am so happy that I found your blog! You bring such elegance to the idea of using dies on your cards. I sure hope this comes over how much I mean this. I think both of your cards are just stunning. You make me wish that I was rich. :O) I think your first card is just awesome and I love, love the white on white. Those flowers are WOW! I have to tell you though that I LOVE LOVE your second card. It truly is in one word GORGEOUS!!!!! Truly love it. Your coloring and the use of the dies is just fantastic. How awesome is it that your cards are at CHA and that you had input on these wonderful dies. I so need to start getting more of them.
