Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge 20 - Easter

I would just like to say a big thanks to Cheery Lynn Dies and to Jeannie, as I won a gorgeous Egg die called Lace egg Three, hop on over to Jeannie's blog she does some amazing work with Cheery Lynn.

Well as it say's Cheery Lynn Challenge Easter, can you believe that Easter is nearly here. We always go to Caloundra Sunshine Coast for holidays so I am starting to pack as we leave next weekend.
Here we go with my design for the challenge, I have once again used lots of dies so I will list them all.
A2 Frame Die Lattice FRM 115
Border Die Carnivale DL 129
Olive Branch B147
Tropical Leaves B119
Meduim Rose B154
Minature Rose B152
The links will take you over to Mandy at Scrappy-go-Lucky she has a great range of the Cheery Lynn Dies.
I have used Cricut Cartridge Doodlecharms to cut out the Easter eggs and a Stampin up punch for the tag. The little bird/chicken is from the new Kaiser collectables.
I have used a glass jar and cut the Lattice Die twice to wrap around the jar. The Border die Carnivale nearly fits around it I just had to cut and fit an extra piece.
A close up of the front, I love using the little leaves and branches they are so versatile and great to use as fillers.
The back of the jar, I didn't bother trimming the lattice die to fit because I thought it gave it a bit of character and the eggs just sit nicely at the back.
And for the lid of the jar I glued lots of the Medium Rose Die on the outer edge and then the Miniature Rose die on the inside. Of course adding a little bit of Kaiser bling to give it a bit of sparkle.
  I will possibly be back with another post next week but I will take this opportunity to say Happy Easter to all of you.
Cheers Shelley

Cricut 360 First Design Team

Well with the 92 Cricut Cartridges I own I thought I would give this New Challenge Blog a try. You have to create a page or card using your Cricut Cartridges and the colour Lime Green and a Bug somewhere in it as well. I used Kaiser paper for the background then cut out the Olive green with Elegant Edges Loops on page 35. The pot was from Doodlecharms and it was actually the Bucket on page 116 and I cut of the side parts. I now have my Gypsy that I purchased from Mandy at Scrappy-Go-Lucky, so I will be able to use that as well now. I used Mothers Day Bouquet for the Pink Flowers and just layered them on top of each other, also the Dark Green Leaves and the Flowers that I have put around the edges of the photos. You cant see all of these flowers as I have place them under the photos. The grass is from Zooballoo page 129, and the Caterpillar is from Walk In My Garden on page 120.
The site is called Cricut 360o and they are looking for a Design Team, I have had fun just playing around with my Cartridges and finally getting some long overdue Scrapping done. The pots in the photo that the children are sitting in have my Topiary trees that have been growing in them for about 12 years.
Wish Me Luck!
