PKS -Let's Face it Friday Challenge -Windy

Hi everyone! Today is the 26th Let's Face it Friday Challenge on the Peachy Keen challenge blog. This is the challenge that is dedicated to all those wonderful Peachy faces! I hope you can join us this week, there is always a fabulous prize to be won!

Here was the challenge we had to go by: 

Swirls of wind remind of of flourishes and whimsy. Make a project that whips up our imagination.

As soon as I saw wind and whimsy I thought of flying a kite on a windy day and the joy it brings to a child. So here is what I came up with..of course it's nice and bright and makes you feel good! :)

I just got the Echo Park Country Drive collection and thought it would work perfect with this card. 

I used a few different Peachy stamps..Snow Cuties for the girl, the small You are My Sunshine to paper piece my sun, and the sentiment is from the Vivienne and Friends set. Hope you like it! :)

Make sure to click HERE for all the details and check out what the talented DT made! :)

P.S. Monday (10/17) starts the PKS mini blog hop, we will be showcasing the newest releases and the super cute Country Bumpkin stamps! I can't wait to share my projects! :)

PKS -Let's Face it Friday Challenge 25 -Leaves

Hi everyone! It seems like we haven't had a Peachy Keen challenge in awhile, but it's only been 2 weeks! I don't know where time goes now-a-days! Time flies! ..so anywhoo the challenge this week for Let's Face it Fridays is all about Leaves for Fall. I love, love, love this time of year, so this was right up my alley!

We were able to make anything as long as we add our Peachy faces and add leaves.

Well I'm planning on making a batch of Pumpkin Spiced chocolate chip cookies ((I found a yummy recipe here))..and I wanted to package them nicely to give to some friends.

Here's my little altered treat bag..

I used some vellum to layer and soften the background. The papers are from a super cute stack I got from M's (Night and Fall). And the of course used my Peachy faces..I used the newest PK-486 In Stitches face assortment for my pumpkins (love that set!).

I hope you like it and hopefully you get some inspiration for your project!

You can get all the details,prize info and check out what the rest of the DT made HERE.

Scrappy Mom's Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Hello everybody! 

Today is the Terrific Tuesday Challenge over on the Scrappy Mom's blog. This one runs on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month and there's always a great prize to win! 

This week the challenge was to use the Country Life Cricut cartridge..so if you have this one come join us, if you don't have it you can still play along with a similar image! 

I had fun with this card..and Peachified it! But one thing I learned is that I NEED to get the SMALL Critter Faces soon! You will notice that only one of my lil' piggies has a real piggy face! lol..so I made it work and used a Princess face and did some paper piecing with my sun and used my handy dandy cloud punches.

Cute? Yes? No?..YES! :D

The pattern papers are by October Afternoon and the sentiment (stamped on the cloud) is from the "Furry Friends" stamp set by Scrappy Mom's. 

I used the PK-754 Critter Face assort. for the mama pig and for the baby piggy -the PK-640 Princess face assort..and the sun is the PK-M16 You are my Sunshine. Hope you like it! :)

You can check out what the rest of the DT made and link your projects HERE.

Little Man -Momenta DT Project

Hey everyone! Yesterday I was the host over on the Momenta blog. I had an open choice to make anything I wanted..so I went with a cute baby book for my friend. I finally got to use my acrylic album ((now sold in the Peachy Keen store)) and I used some fun Momenta papers, the Baby Steps Cricut cartridge, Scrappy Mom's Stamps..lots of cute stuff! Here's what I posted:

********

Hi everyone! Joanna here, if you are a follower of my blog then you know I am a BIG fan of my Cricut! I love making my own diecuts to coordinate with my layouts or cards. The best part about using a die-cutting machine, like the Cricut, is that you can use any pattern papers you want! 

I have a friend who is expecting her 1st little baby boy and I wanted to surprise her with this little baby mini album. I used a 4x4 acrylic book and layered all my die-cuts with some fun Momenta stickers and messages. I used the adorable Cuddle and Coo collection paired with the Baby Steps cricut cartridge to complete my book.

(front & back)

This came out super cute and looks great in person! I added lots of dimension with pop dots and the mini clear layered stickers (bird & giraffe) added the perfect touch. I also used some cute Peachy Keen Stamps to stamp the baby faces and used some Scrappy Mom's Stamps for the sweet sentiments. Hope you like it! :)

Momenta supplies:

PA-2332 CUD 12x12 Prem Paper Pad

ST-4852 C&C mini cl

ST-3332 C&C Emb Msg.

Other Supplies:

Cricut, Baby Steps catridge (Provo Craft)

Scrappy Mom's Stamps-"Special Delivery"

I cut the big wave from the Life's a Beach Cricut cart and sanded the edges a bit. I also wanted to create a border with the stickers, it was really easy to layer them. And I used my cloud punch  behind the sun.  All the pattern papers are by We R Memory Keepers.

Hey there! Today is the Let's Face it Friday challenge over on the Peachy Keen Challenge blog. The theme this week is "Old School" -creating a project based on the year you graduated and make sure to "Peachify" with a fun face! 

This was kind of a hard challenge..I was trying to think of the things that went on when I gradutaed (in 2004, so it wasn't that long ago)..but I just decided to go with a senior year layout. I actually made a graduation LO back in the day when I first started scrapbooking and I had to laugh at the way I used to scrapbook..boy have my skills improved! lol..

Here's my new page..

((sorry for the bad lighting, that's what I get for taking my pics late at night! ))

I used the PK-590 Blushing Bride assortment for my grad-gal

Aww I was so young here..only 18!

I made a little scene at the botton of my page by paper peicing the school/bus from the pattern paper and I used my cloud punch and my button maker.

I hope you like it! If you want to join in the challenge you can make anything from the year you gradutaed..from music you listen to, your hairstyle, clothes, your car..anything! As long as you add a Peachy Keen face to it!

Baby card and blog candy winner..

Hey there! 

Recently my sister Sandra let me borrow a bag full of her Cricut cartridges ((thanx sissy!))..the only problem was that I HAVE to use my Gypsy to see where everything will land on the mat and since she hand already linked all of these to her G I had to do it the old fashion way! lol..  all these cartridges just sat in the bag for about a month. But now that I have my new Cricut E2 it makes life so much easier! I can see exeactly where the images will be and the touch screen is amazing! Just pop those babies in and it loads up the entire overlay..it's so nice doing it that way when you're using linked cartridges!

So the reason I wanted to tell you that was because she let me borrow the Straight From the Nest cartridge (along with about 20 more!)  I've been dying to play around with it but I really didn't want to do the 'old way' ..I know I'm lazy..lol..but the E2 made it a breeze! :)

Here's a little baby card I whipped up for a friend (she loved it!), the clothesline & grass where cut from the Straight From the Nest cart, the clouds are from my trusty cloud punch...

Isn't that cute, I really need to just get this cart for myself, but it's nice being able to borrow them!

All the pattern paper is from the Stella & Rose -Hattie collectin by My Mind's Eye ((LOVE this collection!)) and the sentiment is from the 'Special Delivery' set my Scrappy Mom's Stamps.

Hope you like it!
