November 2016 "Let's Shake Thing Up" Blog Hop at ***Cheery Lynn Designs***

Hi everyone, 
Welcome to the November 2016 "Let's Shake Things Up" Blog Hop at 
"Cheery Lynn Designs"
We are so excited to show you all projects made with the NEW shaker dies Cheery Lynn Designs offers. You will be blown away for sure I can tell you that.

This is the order of the blog hop you first visit the Cheery Lynn Designs blog as followed by:

For this blog hop I made a 8x8 layout with a picture of our son and his new haircut oh boy how he is growing up so freaking fast. For this layout I used the pretty "Life by the Sea" collection by Maja Design and some of my favorite Cheery Lynn Designs dies like the B305 - Gauze Border & B693 - Cool Dude other then that these NEW shaker dies are awesome to work with.

My Awesome Dude: 
The shaker dies are very easy to use plus that you can add all sorts of little embellishments to your shakers. In this particular shaker I used some extra glass glitter from Finnabair to compliment the wow and winner shaker parts as you will see below. But you can also add beads, micro beads and little buttons if you'd like!

I just love that you can use the gauze border for your background as you can cut it up but you can also use it in just one piece. There are nine shaker dies for any occasion as for instance marriage, birth, Christmas, birthday, love or new year's which one would you like to have?  Maybe I will shake things up a little extra........how you may wonder.....
Well if you tell me which one you would like {in a comment on this post} to have and tell me what you would make with that shaker die then I will draw a winner on the 9th of November and send that shaker die your way....does that sounds good???


Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed my work as much as I loved making it!

Memories Documented Layout for ***The Dusty Attic***

Goodmorning lovelies,
It's been awhile since my last post and also since I was last creating but I am back again.... and this time with a wonderful mood board by the amazing Dusty Attic.
This mood board is a stunner as I love yellow & black to create with. For this layout I used a picture my aunt posted on Facebook of my grandfather and herself "OH" how I love to scrap old pictures especially if they are from my own family.

Memories Documented: 
Did you already play with us this month at the Dusty Attic blog? If not you must give it a go because you could win a $100 give voucher and I have to tell you it's worth it because Jennifer designed a bunch of new chipboard pieces lately and.....they all ROCK!

Here is the mood board: 
 What I love about this board is the saying and all the different patterns. For my layout I used different Maja Design papers and the NEW flower bundles from Prima and a bunch of Finnabair products and Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays. 


Firstly I all gessod my chipboard pieces to later on inked them with Dusty Attic's acrylic paint those paints are amazing WOW. Lately I am a addict for paper straws hihihi they add so much to your work next to all the beautiful Dusty Attic chipboard pieces. 


I also stamp a text stamp on my corner swirly for a extra touch.....I did use a bunch of mixed media products to compliment my work!


The Dusty Attic products used:
Thank you so much for visiting my blog today and hopefully I have inspired you to join in this months mood board at the Dusty Attic blog. Have a lovely crafty day!
Love
