Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #29

Happy Tuesday! It's time for another Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge!!
For challenge #29, you need to create a recipe card for your favorite picnic/BBQ salad or side dish!
This was such a fun challenge, I liked it because it was unique and different. I would have never thought of creating a recipe card. Now that Ive made one, I really want to keep making them!



For my recipe card I used the brand new PK-640 Princess Face Assortment on the apples. And on the carrots, I used one of my absolute favorite sets, the PK-531 Simple Sallies Face Assortment. The little eye glasses are darling and worked perfectly with the tall skinny carrots!!

So, pop on over the the Peachy Keen Stamps blog and play along with us!! You'll be amazed at the beautiful creations that the other DT members have made and you could win an awesome prize!!

2 new cards

I've been dying to use my new Peachy Keen Critter Face Stamps!! Ive had them since Sunday and I haven't had the chance to use them until today! They are awesome!! There are so many to choose from, I couldn't decide. Finally, I picked the little penguin and the piggies! I cut all the critters at 2 1/4 inches. On the penguin I used the PK-754 set A Medium. On the piggies I used the PK-753 set A Small, and from that set I used the largest face (5/8).

so here they are...

an Exciting Announcement

I am now one of the three newest members of the Peachy Keen Stamps Design Team! I need one of the little "smiley" icons that jump up and down shouting hooray, 'cause that's how I'm feeling!!

Kathy and Angelica are the absolute best, I adore all the ladies on the PKS DT! I am so happy to now be a part of their team!!

...on to my first challenge as a DT Member

Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge 28 was to create a card using the sketch below. I love this sketch for a couple of reasons. First, LOVE the scallops at the bottom! Second, I'm a firm believer that all things look best grouped together in "3's", so I love the one large embellishment with the three smaller ones to the right of it! Great Sketch!



Here's my take on the sketch.









Thanks for stopping by my blog and checking out my new card. If you have a minute, pop over to the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge blog and try challenge 28!! I can't wait to see what you create!

Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #27

For the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #27 we were to find inspiration from a color pallet that was posted on their blog. The colors are creme, celery and a light eggplant. These colors are so beautiful together. Here is my entry using those colors. I made a little lightening bug jar with little lightening bugs flying in and around it. It makes me think of summertime, which is right around the corner!! I used my darling Simple Sallies Face Assortment on my little lightening bugs!!

Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #26

Here is my entry for the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge 26. I created my first card (the three colorful ducks) using the sweet Ducky Dolls set. I liked it so much that I decided to run it in my column.I had so much fun with this set, I made another card (the one duck with the daises). So, the second card is my entry to the challenge. My "up-cycled" item is the corrugated circle behind the duck. That is the inside of a light bulb package, the protective part that the light bulbs are packed in. The ducks are colored in with water color paints.

I was so happy to see this challenge because it uses a cart that I have, one of my favorites...New Arrival.

Bunny Place Cards

I made these little place cards for our Easter table. They were super simple and all 10 of them took less than 2 hours start to finish!
I used the gift bag on page 65 of Once Upon a Princess and the bunny face from Doodlecharms. I welded them together in Design Studio to create the bunny bag. (if anyone would like the DS file, please email me, I'd be happy to send it to you)
I cut the bags in a variety of spring colors then I cut a separate bunny faces in white and chalked them. I cut the name plate tag using Once Upon a Princess, the tag on page 49.
I assembled the bags using a hot glue gun. I worked great, quick with a tight bond.
I filled the little place card bags with jelly beans and bunny/duck/chick sweet tarts to weight them down. Then I added the grass.
thanks for looking! :)

Mini Tutorial using Once Upon a Princess

Here's a quick mini tutorial using the Cricut's Once Upon a Princess cartridge showing how to layer the dolls.
I used my Peachy Keen Everyday Character Stamps to create the faces on some of these dolls. You can find them here. The sweet patterned papers I used for their clothes are Bisous PDQ from their Rainbow collection and you can find it here.

Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #25

For this PKS Challenge #25, I made a birthday card for my niece. She's turning 3 (I can't believe it!).
I used my new Once Upon a Princess cartridge. There are some super cute cupcakes on it. I also used my Peachy Keen Christmas Character Face Assortment. I used one of the elf faces, but it was perfect b/c the little nose looks like a sprinkle!!
The pp's are gorgeous Bisous from their Hot collection!

It Came!!

My Once Upon a Princess cartridge came today! OH MY Gosh it is the cutest cart ever!!
