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:

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

I have been in the moving process from what seems like forever! Our family moved from North Carolina to Pennsylvania in February. It was not without some problems but we are finally in our house and I am starting to get my craft room together. I still have quite a few boxes to unpack but I have enough unpacked to start creating again.

Today I am sharing inspiration using products that can be found at Shop Pumpkin Spice.

 

We were welcomed to our new neighborhood by some very friendly neighbors so I needed to make some thank you cards. I am in the mood for spring so this is what I put together.

 

 

To create this card I took an image of a kite from the Sugar and Spice cricut Lite cartridge and used this bright and cheerful cardstock from Fancy Pants designs "Be You" 6x6 pad. The string for my kite is from The Twinery's Baker's Twine in Pink Sorbet.

 

I punched a scallop circle from Fisacars and stamped it with stamps from Technique Tuesday "Sweet Somethings." I just tucked it behind my rectangle.

 

This was super fast to create and I have another sitting on my desk ready to be put together.

 

You can find these products at Shop Pumpkin Spice along with many more. For daily inspiration and challenges visit the Pumpkin Spice blog.

 

Thanks for stopping today.

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!

Hi Crafty Friends! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I have a card that I made for Peachy Keen's Let's Face It Friday challenge. The theme for this challenge is Furry Friends.

I happened to find a Four Legged Friends Cricut Lite cartridge at Walmart in the clearance that is going on with thier lites. I wasn't going to buy it but once I saw this cute hamster I decided that I just had to have it! :) And, I just had to use this sentiment again. It is from Scrappy Moms Stamps newest release Raining Cats and Dogs.
