Peachy Keen Release Party Challenge Cards

Hello everyone! Did you get to the Peachy Keen Release Party tonight? What fabulous inspiration from all of the DT and HOW CUTE are these new stamps???

I have a couple of cards to share with you that I made for the Release Party challenges. Even if you didn't make it to the party, you can still play along for a chance at a Peachy Keen Gift Certificate.

My first card is for the release party challenge that I am hosting. You can created any project, but include a sun on it.

I created the card base using Birthday Bash and I welded a cloud from Create A Critter to the bottom before I cut it out. The sun is from Everyday Paper Dolls and I stamped it with that ADORABLE face using the new PK June SOTM kit. The sand castle is also from the SOTM kit and I added it to the cloud with a banner. The sentiment is also from the June SOTM kit. 

For the second challenge, you're to create a 1-2-3 card. 1 stamped image, 2 pattern paper, and 3 embellishments hosted my my DT sister Amy. 

I stamped the Hula girl from the new Rock A Hula add on set and colored her with Copic markers. The flower is cut from Mother Day Bouquet and I added some stickles to the edges of the flower. I also added some to the top banner and to the flowers on the hula girl. I added some gems to the center of the flower and also to the flower in her hair. To finished I stamped the sentiment from the Rock A Hula stamp set.

I hope you all will play along in the challenges which can be found at The Peachy Keen Connection.

You can also buy all these stamps NOW at Peachy Keen!

 Thanks for stopping in and have a great day! 

Day 5 Of My Craft Spot's Release Week

Hello everyone! It's the last day of sneak peeks for My Craft Spot's new releases! Tomorrow we will be having a BLOG HOP with the full release of the stamp and die sets! There will also be a new stamp/metal die set set up for grabs at every stop in the hop.

Today we are showing sneak peeks of the new Feel Better Soon stamp set.

So for my last sneak peek project, I have a fun get well kit. I was inspired to make this when I found those super adorable Hello Kitty Band-Aid's! LOL!

I created the hinged box by cutting 2 simple boxes. Once they were all together, I cut a strip of paper the lenght of the box and 2 inches wide. Then I scored it down the center and attached the two boxes to it. Super simple way to make a hinged box. 

For the front of the box I cut a 1 3/4 inch circle and quartered it for the corners and added simple strips to the sides and for the handle. I also cut a 1 1/2 inch wide strip for the closure and added some velcro to it.  I cut Hello Kitty from Hello Kitty Greetings and welded the nurses hat from Everyday Paper Dolls in my Gypsy. I stamped the RX in the center of the heart with the new Feel Better Soon stamp set and also the tag which I heat embossed. I attached it with some Black Trendy Twine.

The inside I added all the get well items by tying Cherries Jubilee Trendy Twine around each piece and glued them onto the backs of the box. 

Thanks so much for visiting all week long for the sneak peeks! I hope you enjoyed all the projects I shared this week and have inspired you! Make sure you go to My Craft Spot for the daily prize and come back tomorrow for the BLOG HOP! There will be lots of great projects and a stamp/die set will be given away at each blog in the hop! Have a great day!

You're EGG-cellent!

Hello everyone! This is the second card that I made for the Release Party Challenges going on over at the Peachy Keen Connection. For this challenge you were to either heat or dry emboss.

I chose to do a heat emboss. 

I started by stamping the clouds with a Versa Mark ink pad and covered them in clear embossing powder. I used my heat gun to melt the embossing powder and then used my white gel pen to add some highlights to the clouds.  The card base was cut from Birthday Bash and I added a pattern piece of paper to the front. The egg and bow were stamped using the NEW PKSC-15 March 2013 stamp set. I colored the face with copic markers and added the bow to her head. The long strip of grass was cut from Everyday Paper Dolls and the rest of the grass pieces and sun were cut from Create A Critter. I stamped the sun's face with a Peachy Keen Sweet and Silly face and mounted it on pop dots. To finish, I stamped the sentiment from the Peachy Keen Easter Bunnies stamp set. 

I hope you all liked my card and will come play along in the challenges! Have a great day and thanks for stopping in!

Grad Card

Hi everyone! The challenge over at Exploring Cricut this week is to use a cart that you HAD to buy and never use. When 3 Birds On Parade came out,  I HAD to have it! And guess what? I have used it ONCE! So this is the cart that I chose to use for this challenge. I even opted to use the font too!
I cut the graduate bird and stamped the face with a Peachy Keen face. The diploma was cut from Everyday Paper Dolls and I added twine to it and the grad cap. I cut the font and shadows and matted them to square blocks. The bottom strip I double matted and stamped the sentiment across the entire bottom. This card turned out so cute, I might just have to use this cart alot more! LOL!

CTO Challenge # 35

Hello everyone! It's time for a new challenge at Celebrate The Occasion! This time the challenge is "Male Birthday" and you must use METAL.
I cut the truck from Everyday Paper Dolls in several colors and cut apart the pieces for the different layers. I used a silver pen and colored the bumpers and added silver brads to the center of the tires. The wood crate on the back is cut from Freshly Picked that I sized in my Gypsy to fit. I tore a piece for the background and crumpled it up. I then inked the edges and high spots. The metal on the side I embossed with Mesh Texture embossing folder and I also inked this. I attatched it with brads and added more to the side of the mat. The sentiment is stamped and matted.
I hope you will play along this week and don't forget to check out what the rest of the amazing DT has come up with. I can't wait to see what you will create!

Heard You're Feeling "RUFF"

Good morning everyone! Before I get to my card I just want to say THANK YOU to all the men and women that help protect our country everyday. I also want to say that I will never forget the tremendous service these people provided us on 9/11. God Bless You All!
This is the card that I made to enter into Tacky Tuesdays challenge. This time the challenge is to use a dog and the words "RUFF" or "WOOF".
I cut the dog from Everyday Paper Dolls at 3.5 inches and stamped his face with a Peachy Keen Wide Eyed and Bushy Tailed face stamp. I didn't want the tear so I masked that off before I stamped it. I chalked around the edges and used a black and white pen to do the highlighting. The thermometer was cut from Smiley Cards and the bed was cut from Four Legged Friends. I printed the sentiment off my computer and added "tissues" to his bed. I did this by cutting small squares of tissue paper and crumpling them up to look like a tissue. I pop dotted the top layer of the bed and glued the tissues in between the layers.
I hope you all are having a wonderful day and thanks for looking!

BBQ Invite

Hello everyone! Here is the invite I made to enter into Bug Bites Bug Hop Grillin' and Chillin' Challenge. Your project must include 1 Cricut cut and a "critter" found on the blog hop projects.

The hot dogs were cut at .75 inches, the burger at 2 inches, and the watermelon at 1 inch from Simply Charmed. The BBQ was cut from Robots at 1 inch and I printed the inviation information from my computer. To finish I did some balck stitching and for my critter I drew an ant on top of the watermelon. I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend! Take Care!

Congrat-MOO-lations!

Hello everyone! Here is my FIRST Imagine project! I am REALLY liking this machine! Unfortunatly there is a minor problem with it so I have to send it back. Which makes me sad because I was so looking forward to playing with it and it will be gone for 2 weeks.

For my card I cut the cow, poka dot mat and Mem-moo-ries with the Imagine More cart at 3 inches. I added the grad cap from Everyday Paper Dolls at 1 inch and rolled a piece of paper and tied some floss around it for the diploma. I trimmed the Mem-moo-ries down to just the Moo and stamped the sentimet. I added Glossy Accents to the cows eyes, face and the "MOO". I hope you all like my first Imagine project and thanks for looking!
