Today's challenge is perfect for this time of the year and getting ready for St. Valentine's Day!! Oh yes, it's a valentine!! But no ordinary valentine, this valentine has to have XO on it somewhere!! XO is one of my favorite ways to sign off on a letter, card or email, so I was very excited about this challenge!!

Here are the rules for this challenge,
-Design must be new
-Project must include Peachy Keen Faces
-Link to Mr. Linky before January 20th


The winner will be receiving not one but TWO brand new sets of PKS stamps from the new release!!

It's time for the Peachy Keen Blog Hop!!!

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am so very excited about this Valentines Day/St. Patrick's Day Peachy Keen Stamps Blog Hop and I hope you are excited to be here too!! Kathy has created some simply AmAzInG stamps for this release! You are in for a real treat! I can't say enough about these face stamps!!

The set I'm featuring is called PK-642 Boy Mates and it is a companion set to PK-640 Princess Faces! This set is perfect for so many Cricut cartridges, for example; B is for Boy, Simply Charmed, both Paper Doll carts, Twinkle Toes and Playmates (if you're lucky enough to have that one!) and more. I've used a variety of cartridges to make my creations for this blog hop.

I hope you enjoy....




I made a card for my dad to give to my mom! I hope she likes it!


I used a Creative Imaginations wooden door hanger to make this for my door for Valentine's Day!! I cut the flowers from Sugar and Spice. The "I Love You" is from Paper Pups. I think these little PKS faces look perfect on these flowers, so whimsical and sweet! I also had to add a photo of the darling little ribbon I found to tie onto the door hanger. I thought it went along with the flowers as if it was custom made. :)



I just purchased Meow cartridge and when I saw these PK-757 Wide Eyed and Bushy Tailed Faces, I had to use them! I cannot stop using these stamps!!



Now for the Give-Away!!
I'm so excited to be giving away PK-642 Boy Mates Face Assortment!! All you have to do is become a follower of my blog and leave me one comment on this post. That's it! I'll choose a random winner by Monday morning!! Good Luck! Also, each DT member is giving away a stamp set.

Now, off to the other PKS DT Gals blogs. Your next stop will be
Janice!!

Here's a list to help you along the way!!

Twilight Card info.

Hi Ladies,
I just wanted to give a few details on how I made the "Twilight" inspired card that I posted today.

The apple is from A Child's Year.
The ribbon is from Joys of the Season. It's the 5 Golden Rings, minus the rings.
The tulip was cut from 50 States. It's Vermont's flower from page 57. I cut it three times. Once in green, once in red and once in white. Then I cut each flower apart and layered them up to look like the tulip on the book.
The chess piece was created in Design Studio. I used Happily Ever After for the crown part of the piece. Then I used George and Basic Shapes to create the rest of the chess piece and welded it all together.

I did save the file in Design Studio. If any one would like me to email it to them, just send me a quick email and I'd be happy too!!

Thanks for asking about the directions, Cindy!!

Happy New Year and Happy Birthday to my Sis!!

Happy New Year Everyone!!!
I think it's going to be a great 2011!!

Today is my Sissy's birthday and here is the card I made for her. It's Twilight inspired.
Happy Birthday Erica!!
