Hello Friends, 
Good Morning and Happy last day of the month....ha ha!!
I've been looking forward to this day for months....yes months because tonight I'm going to see the Cake Boss show with my nephew! We are going to meet Buddy Valastro. If you are wondering who Buddy Cake Boss is then here's a link... Cake Boss Live! I've been watching Cake Boss with my nephew since he was just 5 years old and we both are super excited!!

Ok, now on to the card!

For this little card I used:

PKKO-10 Winter Character with Hunter Hat Die

PKS-10 Snow Boy with Envelope

 

Here is a video of how to use these dies. 

Here is a video where I show you some more little cards made with Peachy Keen Stamps Dies.

Thank You so much for stopping by my blog this month to see all my cards! It's been alot of fun making them all! I hope you stop by tommorrow for a review of the month!!

 

I wish you a hectic-free Holiday Season and a very beautiful and blessed Christmas!

Hello crafty friends,
WoW, did this month ever fly by! Here's card #29!

This card is a little different from most of the cards I make...no faces! :)

I also used PK-156 Lucy's ABC's and 123's Solid set! This alphabet/number set is perfect for titles, captions and banners (of course), it's uses are endless!!

30 Days of Christmas Cards - Day 9

Good Morning Everyone, 

If you are looking for the Peachy Keen Stamps Thankful Hop please click here.

Now on to the card for day #9!

I used:
PK-112 Cherub Faces for the doll 
PK-660 Laughy Taffy Faces for the nutcracker 
PKSC-11 November 2012 for the sentiment

For this card I used one of my favorite subjects, a nutcracker. Every year, since my nephew was two, I have taken him to see a Christmas ballet. For the first four years I took him to the Adventures of Rudolph ballet in Syracuse. Then when he turned six I began taking him to see the Nutcracker, which happens to be my favorite ballet.

This year we are going to see Cake Boss Buddy's Christmas show instead of the ballet. Both Colin and I are very excited to meet Buddy in person and watch him decorate a cake. 

I hope you liked my card for today...thanks for stopping by!

November is one of my favorite months of the year...ok...it's my Favorite! I love how it's filled with all the excitement of the holidays. I look forward to the yummy smells of cookies, pies and the turkey coming from the kitchen, the beautiful festive colors...red, green, gold and silver and the sounds of the season especially my Muppets Christmas CD.

This year (just like last), I'm having a 30 Days of Christmas Cards on my blog so that every day of November you can stop by here and see a brand new card. I'm hoping that some of you might want to play along and create some of your own holiday cards too. I'm posting an Event on Facebook that will run for the 30 days. You can post your cards there too so we all can see the beautiful creations that you have made.

Happily, my 30 Days of Christmas Cards just happens to coincide with the Peachy Keen Stamps Club for November! So, you will all be seeing some of the new release throughout the 30 days! And of course you will be able to purchase your own set of the November Stamp of the Month on Monday, November 5th to use to create your own Christmas cards, scrapbook pages or crafty item!!

ok, now on to today's card...

For this first card I used the Peachy Keen Stamps November Stamp of the Month Kit!! This little elf is the most darling little guy and he comes with eleven different faces and can be used with any of the PKS faces that you already have.

Don't forget...We'll be partying, and sharing all the new PKS stamps being released on Monday, November 5th at 6:00 p.m. (CST), and it will all be happening on The Peachy Keen Connection!
