PKS Inspiration

Hi There, Peachy Fans! Welcome to  Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Today I am sharing inspiration using her and on the Peachy Keen Blog.

 

For my project today,  I decided to make some mini greeting cards that are perfect for a little pick me up or to use as a gift tag.

 

 

These cards measure 3.25"x 3.25".

 

I cut a scalloped square and ran it through my Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots embossing folder.

 

The fruit is from PK-239 Faceless Fruit. I paper-pieced each one.

 

The sentimentes are from PK-162 Fruit Sentiments ONE and PK-164 Fruit Sentiments TWO.

 

Here is a close up each:

 

As you can see, I added ribbon or twine to each card. I made a total of eight cards, 2 of each design. My plan was to have a box finished for you but, as you all know, this is a busy time of year and time is like a vapor!

 

Visit my blog sometime and I may have a box for you in the future!

 

Thank you for stopping today!

 

Until next,

Happy Crafting!

Sweet on You ~ SMS Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

This week we are challenging you to make a project related to comfort food or fun foodie favorites. The designers have all used our SMS Mom's Diner stamp set....

 

Here is my card for the challenge:

 

 

For this card I created the base using my Gypsy and the Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge. I welded 2 of the book cuts together.

 

The cupacke is from the Cricut Sweet Treats cartridge. I added some Ranger Glossy Accents to the heart and sprinkled it with some Martha Stewart coarse glitter.

 

The sentiment is from this Scrappy Moms set:

A Pretty Little Flower ~ SPS Inspiration

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

If you are looking for the PKS and SVG Cutting Files Blog Hop click HERE.

 

Today I am featuring a card made with products that can be found at Shop Pumpkin Spice. This is also my inspiration card for the Pumpkin Spice Blog.

 

The challenge this week at Pumpkin Spice is Flowers. So I decided to create a shaped flower card.

 

 

I chose papers from Carta Bella's Traditions 6x6 paper pad. These papers are gorgeous!

 

I created the base of the card with the shadow cuts from Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge and welded them together. The layers are also from Elegant edges. I inked everything with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

 

For the center I used my new circle dies that I wond from My Craft Spot. :)

 

I stamped the center with a sentiment and added this beautiful brad from Crate Paper's Pretty Party Eclectic Buttons.

 

I added some pop dots for dimension and I, now, have a beautiful card on hand to give to someone special!

 

If you haven't joined in the current Pumpkin Spice Challenge you still have time to link up!

ABC and 123 ~ PKS and SVG Cutting Files Blog Hop

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Today Peachy Keen Stamps and SVG Cutting Files are teaming up for a blog hop. This is a 2 day hop and this is Day 1.

 

If you arrived her from Gwen's blog: This and That by Gwen, then you are in the right place. If you just happened upon my blog and want to start from the beginning then head on over to the Peachy Keen Stamps Blog.

 

The goal of this hop is to inspire you to use your Peachy Keen Stamps with SVG Cutting Files. There are so many files to choose from and boy, are they ever cute!

 

For my project I created a teacher's gift using the 3D Book Box SVG cutting file.

 

 

I combined the file with several Peachy Keen Stamps. I used PKSC-08 September 2012 for the cute little apple, face, and sentiment. The sentiment was heat embossed with white embossing powder to look like chalk.

 

I, also, used PK-155 Lucy's ABC's and 123's outlined and PK-156 Lucy's ABC's and 123's solids.

 

On the side I used PKSC-09 September 2012 for the thank you sentiment.

 

I added some Twinery Baker's Twine to the front to create a bookmark and Trendy Twine for the bow on the apple. The brads are from my stash.

 

It's a little hard to see from the picture but I took a few strips of white cardstock and ran it through my paper crimper to give the look of pages.

 

The box opens up to reveal a chocolate treat but you could put a gift card or some other small gift inside.

 

All the paper used for theis box is from My Mind's Eye "School Daze" 6x6 paper pad.

 

Before you leave, I wanted to make you aware that there are TWO $35.00 gift certificates ( 1 from Peachy keen Stamps and 1 from SVG Cutting Files ) up for grabs for each day of the hop! (remember this is day 1) All you have to do to win is leave a comment on each blog along the hop.

 

Thank you for stopping today!

 

Now it's time to go see what Jaymie from This and That Scraps has for you today!

 

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!

 

Coming Tomorrow!

 

Hope to see you there!
