Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #36

Sorry there wasn't a post yesterday.  We had some family time on Tuesday night and played a board game together.  We should really do that more often!

I made this card for the the new Peachy Keen challenge this week.  I didn't use any Cricut on it (gasp!).  It was late and I really wanted to make something but not wake up my daughter.  The challenge this week is a color and sketch challenge.  Here's my take on it!

• Peachy Keen Happy Bird Stamp
• My Pink Stamper Tweet Hoo Puns stamp
• EK Success border punch
• white ribbon
• 1 blue skittle
• Frosted lace Stickles for wings and cheeks (you can click the picture to see the sparkle better!)

I used colored pencils for the bird and used a blending pen to even out the color.    Make sure to visit the Peachy Keen Challenge Blog to see the sketch and enter yourself.  There's a great prize this week :-)

Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge 17

Here's my card for the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge 17. You can check it out at this link:

The "rules" were to use:

• polka dot(s)
• a border
• stripe(s)
• stamped image(s)

I found the paper in a DCWV Winter Pack from last year so it would coordinate. The bird stamp is from Peachy Keen--I'd really love to win this one so I can you different stamps on my entries :-) The greeting is from the dollar bin at Michaels. I almost forgot about the border so I used the MS lace edge punch and put it on the inside sticking out. You can see some of it behind the tag which is from George. I had to add some stickles to the eyes and scarf.

I got the card idea from Cardz TV. She is awesome!! You should go over there and see what she makes. http://cardztv.blogspot.com/

Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge 16

For this week's challenge, you need to use some Peachy Keen Face stamps. You should really head on over there and enter--the more people who enter, the bigger the prize!http://peachykeenstampschallenge.blogspot.com/2009/11/peachy-keen-stamps-challenge-16.html#comments

I used the base snowflake tag from Very Merry Tags (love this cart!) and the hello stamp is from some cute owl stamps I got at Archiver's. The face stamp is Peachy Keen of course! I keep all my stamps in CD cases and have no idea of the names, sorry. The snowflake paper came from JoAnn's. I added some stickles and skittles. Super easy!!

Peachy Keen/Mojo Monday Challenges

This card is actually for two challenges. I found the card sketch at http//mojomonday.blogspot.com/ and thought it was so cute!! And I really wanted to particpate in the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #14. http://peachykeenstampschallenge.blogspot.com/ So I'm going to enter both!!

For the Peachy Keen Challenge you had to:

***Make a card
***Use the colors PINK AND BROWN as the main color scheme.
***Use a stamped image (preferably Peachy Keen Stamp - but not required)
***Incorporate a piece of ribbon
***Use some type of glitter (stickles are fine!)

The bird stamp is from Peachy Keen and the round one and snowflakes are from Studio G. Patterned paper is DCWV sweet stack. I did use Stickles on the birds eyes, holly and the snowflakes right around it. The round stamp says warm up with a cup and then hot cocoa--don't know if that will show up very well. I used the Cricut George cartdrige for the rectangle and circle and shadowed them.
