Peachy Keen Stamps and Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons Blog Hop

Welcome to the Peachy Keen Stamps and Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons Blog Hop. You should have come here from Melisa's blog. If not make sure to get the whole hop in by going to the start at Lisa's Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons blog.

I used several Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons products as well several Peachy Keen Stamps to make my two shape cards.

I used the awesome print and cut features on my Silhouette machine to make both cards. I love my Silhouette for that. It worked terrific with these Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbon cutting files too. The cute little girl that I used is from the Fourth of July Kids Cutting File. I added corn to her hand instead of the flag she is normally holding and gave her fall colored clothing. The corn, berry basket and pumpkin come from the First Thanksgiving Cutting Files. Her cute little head band and feathers come from the Thanksgiving Wear Cutting Files. The shape of the card is made by using one of the banners from the Simple Banner Shapes Cutting Files. The darling polka dot paper is all digital paper from a Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons set called Pumpkin Spice Circles and Spots. I used a couple of fun Peachy Keen Stamps sets as well. I used The Moodies Face Assortment for her adorable face. I also used the October 2012 Stamp Kit of the Month for the sentiment.

I also made a fun turkey shape card.

I used the awesome print and cut feature once again for this card. The Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbon cutting files I used were the First Thanksgiving Cutting Files (for the turkey) and the Simple Banner Shapes Cutting Files (for the card shape). Once again the darling polka dot paper is all digital paper from the set called Pumpkin Spice Circles and Spots. I used two stamps by Peachy Keen Stamps the were The Cornies Face Assortment (for the turkey's eyes) and the October 2013 Stamp Kit of the Month (for the sentiment). The cute stitched die that the stamp is on is by My Creative Time. It is called the Scallop and Stitched Circle Dies. I finished it off with some hemp twine and then some faux stitching with my GellyRoll pens.

Let Us Give Thanks

Here is a quick and easy little treat bag that I made for the Peachy Keen Stamps November Release Party Challenge #1. The requirements are to make a treat bag using the colors green and orange and to use at least 1 button. If you join in the challenge you have a chance at a $25 Peachy Keen gift certificate! YAY. You can join in the challenge HERE. You have until Tuesday, November 12th at midnight to link up a project in the comment section.

Here is mine:

For my tag I used the pumpkin and sentiment from the October 2013 SKOTM. I also used the new Wiggle Stitch size A2 stamp for the background of my tag. I just used some watermark ink to give it that tone on tone subtle look. The tag I used is the Stitched Round Tab Arrow and Tag Die by My Creative Time. I used a button from my stash along with some pretty twine from The Twinery!

There is also another challenge. It is Release Party Challenge #2 and it is to upcycle something into a holiday decor item. I haven't done this challenge project yet but if I do I will send out another reminder. You can find the 2nd challenge HERE.

I hope you will join in the fun! Hugs- Glora

Game On Football Frame

It is time for a new Peachy Keen Challenge. This challenge is to make something 3D and that has the theme of FALL SPORTS.

My brother played lots of football and I thought this fun altered frame would be a great way to display one of his favorite football pictures.

The 'game on' sentiment and the awesome football with the stitched circle around it both come from the October 2013 SKOTM by Peachy Keen Stamps. I used a circle that I had cut out on my Cricut machine to stamp the football image on and I used a die from the Chunky Jar Accessories set by My Creative Time to stamp the sentiment on.

Simple and easy but I think he is going to love having this little visual reminder of his football days.

Make sure to stop by the Peachy Keen Challenge and join in on the fun too.

Hugs- Glora

You're Sweet!

Today I am posting over at Peachy Keen Stamps and I wanted to show you a clean and simple note card. I love having something cute and simple (and not too bulky) on hand.

The darling pear and it's face along with the perfect sentiment come from the October 2013 Stamp Kit Of The Month. The cute little scallop circle is also a stamp. It is from the Clear Canning Pint Jar all from the newest release at Peachy Keen Stamps. I also used a My Creative Time Die from the Build a Banner Kit as well as some pretty coordinating twine from Timeless Twine called Watermelon Sorbet.

All this took was a little bit of stamping, cutting and gluing and it was done in a flash. I think it would be a great way to brighten someone's day and let them know how sweet you think they are.

I hope you are inspired to make some quick and easy note cards that you can send off to encourage or brighten up someone's day. Have a great day! Hugs- Glora

Peachy Keen October Release

It is the 3rd day of sneak peeks of the new stamps that will be released over at Peachy Keen Stamps. I have a few projects to share with you using these new stamps.

This card uses two of the add on sets called Clearly Autumn Quart Jar Contents and Clearly Autumn Pint Jar Contents. For the Die I used the Stitched XL Label Die and the XL Label Die by My Creative Time.

My Gift Card holder is made using only the October 2013 SKOTM. My gift card holder was made using a die by My Creative Time called the Embossed Gift Card Holder.

And this card also uses the October 2013 SKOTM for the sentiment and for the pumpkins and their faces. I used a My Creative Time die called Stitched Round Tab Arrow and Tag for the tags.

Make sure to check out the Peachy Keen post to see what all the other designers have made. Have a great evening. Hugs- Glora
