Vintage Me 8x8 Layout for *** Cheery Lynn Designs ***

Hi lovelies,
Last week on Sunday I told you I was going to post on Sunday's because I was back on the Cheery Lynn Designs DT but there where some changes at the team Sandy left the team and Bonnie took over her job and now my post date will be on Tuesday's. So Bonnie will have the challenge date. 
So today I would like to show you another 8x8 layout I made following the theme this week "Vintage"
This time I scrapped a picture of little me back in 1981 when I was just tree years old waiting for my daddy to come home from work. My mom always settled me on the window-ledge with a apple so she could clean the house before my daddy came home and I really love sitting there. 

Vintage Me: 
For this layout I used the pretty "Vintage Autumn Basics"collection by Maja Design. 
I really love the thickness of these papers especially for making my own flowers like I did here. 
Another thing what's amazing is that the layout's I make for Cheery Lynn Designs are smaller then the ones I normally do. 

First I stared by cutting out all the flower petals on my new Big Shot ;-) then I whetted them just with some water. After that I wrinkle them all and squeeze them firmly in my hands to blow dry them after a couple of minutes. Then I layered them to make these flowers.  

 On this layout I also pasted, sprayed and inked like I did on my last layout for the Black & Orange challenge. When I got my amazing DT package this week I just had to use these cute feathers as leaves they make a great finish on your flower clusters don't you think?
Cheery Lynn Design dies used: 

I hope you all like the layout I made as much as I loved making it. Thank you so much for you visit today. If you love the dies Cheery Lynn offers you could always enter the challenge 207 Vintage , because you could win a $20 shopping spree at the store. I can't wait to see your work.  

Love

Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge 206 - Black and Orange

Goodmorning everyone, 
I have some happy news to share with you all.
 From today on I will be designing for Cheery Lynn Designs again and I am very happy about it. This time my project will be posted on the challenge day Sunday.
 So I will also post here on my blog that day.
Today the challenge is "Black and Orange" and for my welcome back day I created a 8x8 layout with a picture of my grandparents way back in the fourties.

Always With You:
 I made this layout with pretty Maja Design papers and I used a bunch mixed media products like paste, sprays, stencils and stamps as the base of my layout. The flowers are made of several layers which I distressed with water. I will make a tutorial some time soon on how I made them. 

 First I cut out the pretty "Anastasia Border" four times to outline my layout. Then I stamped, pasted and sprayed on my creme sheet. Then I cut out a couple fish tale banners and placed them under my picture and in the left lower corner. 


 Cheery Lynn Designs dies used: 

I hope you will all play along in Cheery Lynn Designs 206 challenge "Black and Orange"!
I can't wait to see what you all create with all the pretty dies. If you play along you can win a $20 shopping spree in the store.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments I really appreciate them.
Have a wonderful Sunday.
Love
