PKS Alumni Blog Hop - That's what friends are for!

Good Morning Friends, 
Today is our Peachy Keen Stamps Alumni Blog Hop!!
If you've found your way here from Nikki's blog you are right on track and right in the midst of all the excitement and fun!
We've got some fantastic give prizes ... one $50, one $30, and one $20 gift certificate all from Peachy Keen Stamps!
Here's how you can win. Leave a comment on each of the designers blog posts and the Peachy Keen Stamps blog. Only three of the designers will be giving away a prize. We don't know which of us are giving away the prizes so your best bet is to comment on every designers blog post (and the PKS blog too!).

When I first heard about this Alumni Hop I wanted to use one of my most favorite new stamp sets from PKS, the Here Kitty Kitty Face Assortment (PK-110). I LOVE this stamp set, it is adorable! I just adore the separate whiskers!
I created a layout featuring my sister, I and my two kitties (Hansel and Gretel). I was stumped for a title, but a friend of mine at the crop that I was at suggested "The Meowingtons). I thought it was cute!

 I also created a card using the same stamp set, PK-110 and the sentiment is from PKSC-04 April 2012.

I hope you like my creations and are ready to continue on with the Alumni Hop!

Your next stop is Sweet Viv!! I'm positive she has some treats for your eyes that you will not want to miss....

Peachy Keen Stamps May Stamp Release!

The time has come...finally! Our PKS May Stamp Release! This has been such an exciting week with all the sneak peek and now our BiG Party to showcase the GorGeOus stamps this month from Peachy Keen! These stamps are so fantastic you are going to love them, plus they are one of the most versatile sets ever!! There are faces (LOVE the faces), there are sentiments, there are images that can be used in so many different ways! Just A-Mazing!
I just want to show you a few of the projects that I've created with the May Stamps from PKS!

For this first card I used the Japanese Lanterns from the PKSC-05 May 2012 set. I stamped them onto patterned paper and cut around them. I used the adorable faces from the set on each lantern. I also used the PK-117 Picnic Tablecloth Background, which I love for the background of my card!

 For this card I again used the PK-117 Picnic Tablecloth Background for one of the layers of my card. I then used the SuPer CuTe PK-115 Let's Ketchup stamp set for the ketchup and mustard bottles. The mustard squiggle and ketchup splat also came from this set! The sweet little faces and the sentiment came from PK-116 We go together set! These sets are so perfect for mixing and matching! LOVE!!

For this card I again used the PKSC-05 May 2012 set. I stamped the images onto patterned paper and then cut around them. I used the sentiments and face from the set!

I hope you like my cards and that you will head on over to the Peachy Keen Store to check out these sets for yourself! They are so perfect for Mother's day, Father's day, Memorial day and all the summer months to come! You'll love them!

Peachy Challenge 11 - 3D Object: Containing Candy

Hi Everyone,

It's time for another Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge! This one was so much fun. I've been thinking about doing this for a while and finally a challenge that was made for my idea.

I bought these little containers at Walmart for .33 cents that have knee-hi stockings in them and I really wanted to use them for something! I though, how fun, to fill them with Easter candy...add a PKS bunny and some ribbon!! Cute, sweet treat for the kiddies!

I used PK-753 Critter Face Set Small and I used the smaller of the two faces sets in that Assortment. My scallop circle was 1 1/2 inch and the bunny was 1 1/4 inch. I used Doodlecharms and Mini Monograms Cricut Cartridge.


So, your PKS Challenge this week is to create a 3D object of your choice following the theme Containing Candy. Use tubes, containers, bags, pretty much anything that holds candy!!!

We'll be awarding "TOP PEACH" to the player who uses their Peachy Keen Stamps this week and our two runner ups will receive a spiffy badge to display on their blog!

Hi Everyone,

Hi Peachy Pals,

I thought I'd play along on this challenge over at PKS. I've been loving my Peachy Keen Stamps Club Kit for March so much that I wanted to create a scrapbook page using it. This is what I came up with! I used the Easter photos of my niece and nephew from 2009 and the little gnome boy and girl!

Under the main photo are two other photos from the day. I stamped and painted all the little mushrooms from PKSC-03. They are so adorable and they come in 3 different sizes!
I hope you like it and it inspires you to use your PKS to scrapbook your favorite photos!

on to the challenge....
