PKS -Let's Face it Friday Challenge -Flower Power

Hey, hey everyone! I'm back with my 2nd post of the day. You can scroll down to see my 1st post, you don't want to miss it! :)

So I'm back because today is Let's Face ot Friday over at the Peachy Keen Stamps challenge blog. This week the challenge is to create a project with a handmade flower, also if you want to join in

*your project must be new

*must include a Peachy Keen face/faces

*Link up before April 1st

Easy peasy! :)

Here's my take on the challenge ((this has some serious cute-ness going on, just to warn you! lol..)) 

PKS also now sells bling! Yep! That's where I got mine from, I just trimmed mine a little to fit with the adorable birdie. And that sentiment is so perfect with Natalie's expression, that comes from the EAD-Fly Away with Me stickerz.

 The little girl is even holding a flower..

To make my handmade flowers I used my good ol' Cricut for some help. I cut them from the Walk in my Garden cartridge, layered each one twice. I spritz each with Pearl glimmer mist and then added stickles in the coordinating colors (only on the darker parts). To make the ends curl up, I used my stylus and rounded the 'corners' and added some gems for a final touch.

 I really love the way this came out, another one going on my fave list! 

Hope it brought a smile to your face! :)

I hope you all can join in, this is a fun challenge...and the prize is pretty awesome! You could win the Happy Lashes (1 1/8th) or the Dolly Dumplins (1 1/8th) faces! How sweet would that be! 

Make sure you pop over to see what the talented DT made! Have a great day! :)

P.S. I got some inspiration from THIS cute frame!

PKS -Let's Face it Friday Challenge -Think Spring

Happy Friday everyone! It's time for another Peachy Keen Let's Face it Friday!  

This week the challenge is to 'Think Spring' 

Create a Spring-inspired handmade gift using your Peachy Keen Faces!

Gifts can be anything: card sets, treat buckets, takeout boxes, decorative basket,  you decide! 

I had a lot of fun with this challenge because Spring is one of my favorite times of the year!

Ready for my project?..it's super cute!

I altered a mini birdhouse, it's perfect to give to someone special ((or in my case..keep for yourself!))

Sorry.. I went a little picture crazy..I had to get every angle! lol..I love the way it came out. I think it's my favorite project so far this year! :)

Here's some details:

I used the PK-Critter Faces med. for the owl and it's from Hoot 'n Holler. For the flowers I used the PK-Snow Cuties faces assort. and those are from Give a Hoot. The birdhouse has a little heart cutout so I used my hot glue gun to frame it with baker's twine and also wrapped twine around the peg and topped it off with a lil' button. I thought the fence looked so cute, I cut those from the Paper Doll Dressup cart...for the edges I used a border punch, and to finish off the house I HAD to add a little banner and then used my label maker for the 'Home tweet home'...oh and all the patern papers are by DCVW. I used my ATG gun to adhere all the papers down and then sanded down the edges with a nail file..super easy!

Hope you like it!

Make sure you pop on over to the PKS challenge blog and see what the rest of the talented DT made, and make sure you give our guest designer this week ((Kimmy)) some love!

The winner for this challenge will get 3 glimmer mist!!

I would love to win these! ;)

Good luck, and have an awesome weekend! 

Thanksgiving Layout for Momo's Challenge

Hi everyone! I have a sweet Thanksgiving layout I made for my daughters 1st Thanksgiving this year. I'm so behind on her baby book..yikes!..I think I've only done about 10 pages, if that! And she's almost one! Well, I don't know anyone who is even caught up on scrapbooking anyway so I don't fell that bad, lol..so the theme this week over at Made by Momo is to make anything with a TURKEY on it.

So here is my layout..this is also probably my 2nd time making a paper doll from the Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge, I think she came out cute! :)

I got my inspiration for this sketch from The Scrappiest blog.

I'm really hoping to whip out some more layouts for her baby book soon. I think once all the holidays have past it might be easier.

So how many of you ordered cartridges from that awesome pre-black-friday sale at Cricutmachine.com? this weekend??? I HAD to order, the prices were sooo low! I'm crossing my fingers they show up in my mail box today! :)

Alrighty, that's it for now, have a great day!

Momo's Tuesday Challenge-Flower Shower

Hi there! Today is Momo's Tuesday Challenge and the theme is FLOWER SHOWER! I kinda had a hard time with this at first, which was weird because I looove flowers! But then I thought of 'flower power' which totally reminded me of hippies! Lol..so I went for a little hippie chick from Paper Doll Dress Up and had her 'walking' through a meadow of flowers (all cut from Walk In my Garden cart). I love how she came out, with her cute face from the PK Princess face set.

The sentiment is by Recollections (from M's)...

I did some doodling and I even drew on the clouds myself! :) I love my lil hippie chick!
I hope you all can join in, Momo has these challenges every other Tuesday so you have plenty of time to get yours in! Be sure to check out what the rest of the team made HERE! Have a great day!

Cutie Patooties...

Hi friends! I hope you all had a great 4th of July! Today I have some cuties for you! I got my inspiration for these in the Go to Sketches magazine. And I used the Amusing Animals stamps from Scrappy Mom's Stamps for the sentiment...

Aren't these the CUTEST! lol...I made a blond, red head and brunette..

Love 'em! :) To make these cuties I used the baby face from Doodlecharms and welded that to the card base shape from Gypsy Wanderings. And then welded the hair piece from Paper Doll Dress Up. Each one of the hair pieces was embossed and I added some twine as the 'hair tie'. I also used my chalks for their rosy cheeks. Each one has a set of brads for the colored eyes. To make the base, I just got 2 of the base shapes from GW, flipped one and welded the two together.

Hope you like it! TFL :)

Throwback Thursday Challenge-Monsters

Hi everyone! This week Emma's Throwback Thursday challenge is to use Paper Doll Dress Up with the Monster theme. I'm so glad she choose this cartridge because it gave me a chance to FINALLY use it! I know, it's such a cute cart, but I never know what to use it for. So her challenge was to do a 3D or altered project and I decided to alter a picture frame! ...I know we are months away from Halloween, but isn't this just too cute! :) ...I even pulled out my acrylic paint and painted the edges black...

I love the Frankenstein, he is so handsome ...lol...

I like to use modge podge when I make pic. frames for the embellies to make sure nothing falls apart..

It gives it a glossy finish too..and for the 'Happy Halloween' I cut that from Lyrical Letters and used tons of stickles for some bling bling!

I used some string as the spiders 'web' and I used my hot glue gun to adhere everything down...those guys are there for good! :p

I didn't glue the spider down, that way he can swing back and fourth on his web..
I really love the new Peachy Keen stamps that Emma used on her lil monster...hopefully I can get some soon! ((Crossing my fingers that I win!!)) They're so cute...well thanks for taking a look!

Salt & Pepper-Friends

I thought this came out super cute...I was gonna do a bride & groom S-P but I thought it would be cuter given them hair! :) Maybe next time I'll do it the other way. So here I cut the salt/pepper shakers from the From my Kitchen cart, 'friends' is from Gypsy Wanderings, and the hair pieces are from Paper Dolls. I added some green stickles, ribbon, a flower brad and inked all the edges with my cat eye inks. TFL!

The Perfect Pair

This is a wedding card I made for some friends of ours. The pears were cut from the Joys of the Season cartridge and the saying is from Sweethearts...and the hat/tie & veil from Papper doll dress up. I used the cuttlebug for embossing and a bit of stickles.
