Peachy Keen Guest Designer Day 4

Hi everyone!  It's good to be back again for day 4 of my week as a guest designer at Peachy Keen Stamps.  I can't believe the week is almost over:-(.  I have LOVED reading everyone's sweet comments about my projects and have been having a blast making them and using my Peachy Keen Stamps!
Alright, so onto my project for today.  I decided to post my card for the latest Let's Face It Friday challenge over at Peachy Keen Stamps and I also used a sketch from the latest Mojo Monday challenge.  The challenge from PKS is to use leaves on your project and to of course, use your face stamps!

For this card I used the adorable set, Vivienne and Friends for the little girl and the wagon, along with the everyday faces for the leaves.  

The card is based on this sketch from Mojo Monday:

Supplies Used:

Stamps: PKS Vivienne and Friends and Everyday Face Assortment

Ink: Momento Tuxedo Black Ink, Copics to color in the girl and wagon

Paper: Stampin UP and DCWV

Pennant Die from Taylored Expressions

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Don't forget to leave a comment on this post and the post on the Peachy Keen Blog, to enter to win the Make a Monster face Assortment set.

Peachy Keen Guest Designer Post, Day 3

Hi everyone!  Welcome to day 3 of my guest designer posts.  I am so happy to be here:-)  I've decided to let go of the Christmas projects and show you a Fall project I made.  If you follow my blog then you will know that I like to make calendar pages to put in my Scrapbooks.  It helps me to look back on them while I am scrapbooking to remember what we did that month and I love to hang them on the fridge!

Here is the page I made for this month.  I used the Mini Monsters and the Designers Calendar Cricut Cartridge for this page.

 This one-eyed face is from the Monster Mash Face

 This little froggy face is from the Make a Monster Face

 These two adorable candy faces are from the Everyday Character Face Assortment set

Thanks so much for visiting me today!  I'll be back tomorrow:-)  Don't forget to visit the Peachy Keen blog today, http://peachykeenstamps.blogspot.com/, and leave a comment here and on the Peachy Keen blog for a chance to win the Make a Monster Face Set!

Peachy Keen Guest Designer, Day 1

Hi all!  Today is my first day as Guest Designer for Peachy Keen Stamps and I am SO EXCITED!  I am so honored to be chosen as one of the guest designers for the year.  I absolutely LOVE Peachy Keen Stamps as I am sure that most of you do too!  I also love the fact that they are made right here in the midwest not too far from where I am outside of Chicago.  It's always good to support product that is made in the USA!
  
Anyway, let's get on with my first project.  So last week I was out with a friend at a local mall and I literally gasped (!) when I saw the Christmas decorations and Christmas trees in the windows of Macy's.  Didn't we just end summer?  Is it technically even Fall yet?  I couldn't believe what I was seeing!  So as I started thinking of what I wanted to make for this week I thought all I would make would be Fall themed project to keep with the season BUT I just got the CUTEST little elves stamps (Lauri and Skip) from Peachy Keen Stamps and thought I HAD to use them in a project!  I hope all of you aren't too shocked to see a few Christmas projects from me this week as I was to see the Christmas trees at Macy's.  I just couldn't resist doing something with these!  The photo is one of my adorable children from a few years ago.  I love how this scrapbook page came out:-)

Supplies Used:

Paper: All the paper used is Stampin UP!, Old Olive, Real Red, and a retired Christmas DSP

Ink: Stampin UP! Real Red for shading around the ornaments

Cricut Lyrical Letters for the wording

I colored the cute little Elves with my Copics

Breast Cancer Awareness Blog Hop

Good Morning Everyone!  Welcome to the Breast Cancer Awareness Blog Hop.  If you came here from Julie over at Cricut Chick, then you are in the right place.  If you just happened upon my blog today and want to start at the beginning, please go back to Andrea at Andrea's Coffee Time.
I signed up for this blog hop as a chance to again step out of my box and hopefully make some cards for women who are going through a tough time.  I plan to take the cards I make from this hop and mail them off to someone who is collecting cards for women with breast cancer.  This disease affects so many and has affected women in my family in the past.  I am hoping that maybe this card will bring some joy to a women who really needs it.
This card was made with a new beautiful stamp set from Monica over at Stampin Daisies called Hope.  Monica just released a bunch of new sets so if you get a chance, take a peak on over there and check them out.  There are some really cute ones!  The address is http://stampindaisies.com/.  I also used a Market Street stamp for the "Believe" sentiment on the bottom.

Thank you all so much for visiting today!  This is the last stop on the hop:-).  I hope you enjoyed it and have a great day!!
