For the birds..by Cherry Nelson

Hello paper peeps!!!  My day at the RRR Blog.  This post is literally for the birds or about the birds.  Either way they are the perfect harkener to Spring.
First a sweet tag with a dimensional house that I assembled and trimmed down to fit my tag. 

I covered it in papers and gave it a white wash effect with a chalkboard pen and a bit of Gesso.





 I used Baby Pink Stamens and both my projects used Baby Pink Seam binding.



 I have been enjoying the combination of pinks and yellows.  Such a sweet color combo in my opinion.



 My  next project is an altered egg carton.  This would be so sweet to fill with chocolates as an Easter gift for a friend, child, or hostess.




 With March here...Spring really should be in the air...but Oregon literally just seemed to get around to Winter. 













Hope you enjoy!!!  Thanks for visiting!  Cherry

Easter wishes card by Cherry Nelson

           Happy Wednesday folks!  It is my day over at the Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts blog.  
Easter is coming up quick.  I was in a pastel mood so grabbed some embossing powders and some  chipboard pieces from GSLC and had a lot of fun embossing.




I used the along with postage frames.  I embossed them both with glitter embossing powders.

 I covered my cardstock with pattern papers and a handmade crepe fringe border.




 I than added my ribbons and my chipboard pieces with my vintage image.





 Here it is all done with a few sweet little embellishments.

Don't slam the screen door!

Happy Saturday!  Cherry here for the CLDB!  I have a card to share today.


I used the Screen Door die for my main focal point.  Such a cute die with a real screen!! Too add more dimension I added thick foam to the back side of the door and the kitty cat.








 I added the tags #1 and stamped a sentiment.






 I love the kitty cat!




 I gave the edges a bit of  ink for aging.  To frame out the door I used the Dutch Doily rectangle frame



             That screen is the cutest!!!!!





 thanks for visiting, Cherry
