Peachy Keen Guest Designer Week 6: Day 4

Happy Thursday! This is day 4 of my 5 days as a guest designer with Peachy Keen Stamps. I want to thank you so much for all the lovely comments. I read each and every one of them and they always make me smile. I hope you all have found at least a little inspiration this week. Peachy Keen faces really are a blast to work with! I can't get enough of them! There are many to choose from and I always get asked about what set to start with. Honestly, if you just pick a set of faces that YOU really like, it is easy peasy to incorporate them with most any project. For example, I often use the Princess faces on animals, etc. Hope that helps some of you that are new to Peachy Keen Stamps. I have used a different set each day this week, highlighting some of my favorite faces (now, that was FUN!).

Today's card kind of took on a life of its own...LOL. I started making a cupcake and ended up with a baby bunny!! Long story. I do this ALL the time. That pretty new Graphic 45 paper was sitting on my craft table and I just couldn't resist using it. Just didn't work with the cupcake. So...from cupcake to this:

I used the Peachy Keen Stamps Everyday Character Face Assortment-PK 490 to stamp the adorable face. This set was my very first Peachy set. Very special to me! This little baby bunny was cut from the Simply Charmed cartridge. I used the Swiss Dots cuttlebug folder on some kraft cardstock and inked up the very top of the embossing. A little ribbon, some buttons and teeny tiny pearls, a Pink by Design stamp, all layered on top of that yummy Graphic 45 Once Upon a Springtime paper, and VOILA! A Peachy-fied card for somebunny special!

Oh, and don't forget about the Laughy Taffy Face Assortment stamp set giveaway going on NOW. Leave a comment on ANY of my posts this week here and/or peachykeenstamps.blogspot.com, for a chance to win. I will pick a random winner on Saturday morning. Have a FABULOUS day!

ETA:  I have a fun little tip for you. The sentiment I used is from Pink by Design Go Green Stamp Set and is all on one line. Well, this card is a mini, 4.5" x 4.5", and I just didn't have the room to stamp it that way. No problem! Just ink the stamp as normal, put a piece of tape over the second word, stamp, ink it up again, tape over the first word, stamp the second word underneath the first. Easy peasy and you can get even more versatility out of your stamp sets!
Peachy hugs,
Kimmy

Peachy Keen Guest Designer Week 6: Day 1

Happy Valentine's Day!! I am so excited to be a Peachy Keen Stamps guest designer this week! I have to admit that this is my favorite time of year to make cards. Hearts are my favorite shapes and pink is my favorite color! Needless to say, I was in heaven making this card with my favorite Peachy Keen Stamps set!

I used one of my favorite faces from the Laughy Taffy Face Assortment . (Warning: I LOVE all of my Peachy Keen Stamp sets, so you will probably hear me say the word "favorite" ALL week). I really like the versatility of this stamp set and I find that I use it A LOT! So much fun!  I used the Rock Princess Cricut cartridge to cut the adorable heart and wings and glittered them up with some gorgeous Martha Stewart Tourmaline glitter.

 I used my Spica glitter pens to add some color to her eyes and lips.

Included in the Laughy Taffy Assortment, is also this cute little stamp:

How fun is that?! I just HAD to stamp that on the back of my card! Too cute!

Guess what?  The generous folks at Peachy Keen Stamps are letting me give away these:

One lucky random winner will get the Laughy Taffy Face Assortment!!!! All you have to do is leave a comment over at the Peachy Keen Stamps blog and/or here on my blog.  Easy peasy! I will choose a winner on Saturday morning.

Kimmy 

Shaken, Not Stirred...

Hi friends! Well, when I woke up this morning it was COLD! I am so happy...LOL! I'm sure it won't last long, but I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts and even though it still gets warm during the day. I have been loving the new digital Smiley Cards download on my Gypsy and here is a card I made last night. I recently got the Jump & Jive stamp set from Pink by Design and as soon as I saw that sentiment, I knew exactly what I was going to make. I also just added Laughy Taffy to my Peachy Keen Stamps collection and I just HAD to use this face...lol!  I am LOVING this set! So much fun!  Enjoy and have a HAPPY FRIDAY! I'm going to head out to the grocery store and get some hot cocoa...hehe! :)
