Peachy Keen Stamps Let's Face It Friday Challenge #30

Hi Dear Friends,
It's the last Peachy Keen Stamps Let's Face it Friday of 2011!!!
I hope you all are ready for a fun challenge!!

THE CHALLENGE

Create a project using your PKS Faces and incorporate the colors provided.

The Guidelines:

Design must be new
Project must include PKS Faces
Link up by 1/12 - 11:59 pm CDT

Here's Mine, I used PK-460 Happy Lashes on the balloons and PK-440 Cute and Cuddly on the face of my little fox.

After 2 hours on the phone with a PC rep. I finally am able to cut using the Cricut Craft Room! YIPPEE! So, I am now able to cut with the 4 preloaded cartridges on my E2 using Hide Contour! I was able to hide the face on the little fox from Just a Note and then stamp the face with my PKS Cute and Cuddly Face!!!
These are photos of my niece Catherine and nephew Colin around the same age. Colin in 2004 and Catherine in 2007. Catherine is wearing the hairpin lace dress that has been in our family for 100 years. My grandmother wore it, my Aunt and so did I. I was so thrilled to be able to put her in it and take some photos. I've scrapped this photo a few times, I love it so much!

Thanks for stopping by and checking out this next challenge. If you haven't already, check out the Peachy Keen Connection Ning Community! You will find endless inspiration there and loads of friendly folks!!

Holiday Tags made with Peachy Keen Stamps

Good Morning Friends,
I made some Holiday tags for my nephew's PTA Craft Fair at his school. The children are able to buy beautiful crafts for their families. Then the presents are wrapped and the children take them home to put under their tree until Christmas. It's a nice way for the kids to feel that they "bought" their own gifts for their loved ones.
I worked on the tags for most of November and I wanted to get 100 finished. I did finish 72 or 73...not bad!



Here is a direct link to the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLFStRnpBQM
Sometimes it works for me and other times it does not.

All my tags were made using Peachy Keen Stamp faces, you can find them here!

So, recipes are a passion of mine. I own a pretty sizable collection of cookbooks! I love to go to used book stores and find books with old recipes in them that I've never heard of before! I also love to surf the net to find "baking" blogs. I've found some delicious recipes that way!

Today's challenge is to make a page or card holding your favorite holiday recipe.

and the Guidelines are:
Design must be new
Project must include PKS Faces
Link up by 11/27 - 11:59 pm CDT

Here's my scrapbook page. It's of my niece baking cookies. Tucked under the main photo are two recipe cards holding my favorite cookie recipes that I love to make with my niece. The faces on my little gingerboys are stamped with PK-484 Snowmany Face Assortment! And I used dimensional fabric paint to frost these little guys.

Don't forget to link your "recipe" creation up by Nov. 27th! And check out The Peachy Keen Connection Ning site for some more amazing inspiration and the Thankful One Challenge/Contest, just tag your Thanksgiving creation with "THANKFUL1" and you could win a fantastic Prize!!

Good Friday Morning!!
I hope you had a nice week. I'm looking forward to a relaxing weekend, I hope!
Here's card # 11. For this "shape" card I used Winter Frolic. I used the little child from page 38 and I welded the base shape of the snow angle to the child's body at the top. Then I cut and layered a complete child on top. For her face I used my PK-460 Happy Lashes Assortment!

This is the die that goes with the CottageCutz Snowman Dolls or the CottageCutz Gingerbread Dolls.
I used some Glimmer Glaze in Oil Slick on his hat and Emerald Cove on the pine trees. The rest of the painting on the snowman I did with my Twinkling H2O's.

30 Days of Cards-Day 1

Good Morning All!
Happy November 1st!!

I decided to challenge myself for the whole month of November to create one Holiday card a day!! I figure by the end of the month I'll have 30 cards to send out and I'll get to use all of my Christmas cartridges. I love my Christmas cartridges but I'll admit, Winter Frolic is my absolute favorite. I don't even think that I've cut half the cute shapes on it. So, this is a wonderful opportunity for me to use it more and all the other Christmas cartridges that I have... Winter Wonderland, Christmas Cheer, Christmas Solutions, Holly Jolly, Joys of the Season. I also have Stretch your Imagination, Simply Charmed, Smiley, A Child's Year and Doodlecharms. These are not specifically Christmas cartridges but they all have Christmas shapes on them.

Well, here's my card for November 1. I hope you like it and that you check back each day to see a new card!!



I used my Holly Jolly cartridge to cut this little elf. I also used my PK-482 Winter Wonderland Face Assortment to stamp his adorable little face!
