Happy Bird-day! ~Peachy Keen Inspiration and Challenge

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Today I am providing a little Peachy Keen inspiration here and on the Peachy Keen Blog.

 

I created this card with the Birthday Challenge in mind that is currently open on the Peachy Keen Connection.

 

 

I used the cute little chicks that are on the brand new PKSC-16 April 2013. This set was just released on Friday. I colored these cuties with Copic markers and added some glossy accents the their eyes. I placed them in a nest that I cut from the Sugar and Spice Cricut Lite cartridge.

 

I cut a shape from Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge and stamped it with PK-107 Cloudy Day background stamp. This is one of favorite background stamps. I find myself using it quite often.  The ink I used was very pale so it is hard to see in the photo.

 

For more definition, I inked all of the edges of my cuts with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

 

Since this is a birthday challenge I cut some balloons from Create-A-Critter Critcut cartridge. I added some Twinery Baker's Twine in Maraschino, Denim, and Lemon Drop and a button from my stash.

 

I used sentiments from PK-142 Lil' Tweets Bird Day and PKSC-12 December 2012.

 

Here's a another close up for these adorable chicks:
