Sneak Peek w/Shar #4

Welcome to another day of Threads n' Scraps guest designs! I decided on a Halloween project for today. After all, we are in the second half of October, right! The background numbers are the Peachy Keen, What time is it? stamp. It can be used for almost anything really. Love it.  

The sentiment, isn't is cute!?, is from Peachy Keen Fruit Sentiments Two. I'm not so sure that cauldron contains any jam I would like to try, how about you? LOL

Just a flower and flags. Cuz I like it! ;) I hope you're enjoying my projects this week. I have just one more to share tomorrow, so be sure and come back for that. I'm having a blast!

Sneak Peek w/ Shar #3

Happy hump day, crafty bloggers! Today's Peachy card is a sweet get well message. I love puns so this one is very fitting. Plus I love to bake, so it's very me. :)

Again using Peachy Keen's September kitchen/baking release-- sentiment, batter bowl, and whisk. 

I added glossy accents to the batter and whisk. Kinda cool...almost makes you want to lick it. Hahaha! Kidding...cuz I do that. Kid, that is!

Stop by again tomorrow for more peachy goodness! Thanks for visiting and I hope you'll find some inspiration to create your own peachyness. Product List: Peachy Keen Stamps, PKSC-21 Peachy Keen Stamps, PK-1337 Quickutz, label die Stampin' Up pattern papers Button, sheer ribbon, twine, corner rounder, glossy accents

Sneak Peek w/Shar #2

Welcome to day 2 of my guest spot with Joy, Threads n' Scraps. For my card today, I've used this adorable hand mixer image, and the perfect "you make me dizzy" sentiment. Isn't this sweet.

You can see a little better here that I added glitter pen to parts of the mixer.

And of course, I had to add a flower. For new readers, flowers are sort of a signature look on many of my projects. I love making paper flowers! This one is a die by My Creative Time. The yellow is so pretty with the red polka dot bow.

Thank you for joining me this week as I share projects showcasing Peachy Keen Stamps. Tune in tomorrow for another peachy project! Product List: Peachy Keen Stamps, PKSC-21, September 2013 My Creative Time, rolled flower die My Creative Time, stitched leaves dies My Creative Time, stitched doily die Quickutz nesting circle dies Stampin Up, pattern papers Ribbon, glitter pen --

Sneak Peek w/Shar #1

Guess who is guest designer at Threads n' Scraps blog? You guessed it,....me! I'm thrilled to be guest designer for Joy at Threads and Scraps this week -- AND I'll be showcasing Peachy Keen Stamps! These are such adorable stamps and so much fun to work with! For today's card, I used the large coffee cup and coffee sentiment from the September stamp of the month release. If you didn't already know (I've been known to share this info all over facebook LOL), I won this entire release after having my kitchen/baking idea chosen for the September theme! I LOVE these stamps extra-much of course! :)

The cutie-patootie tiny sentiment, "Life's short" is from the In The Kitchen add-on set, also in this release.  I used a small oval die to make a saucer, and glossy accents for the coffee in the cup. I think I might need a real life mug that says this on it. LOL

Product List: Peachy Keen, PKSC-21, September 2013 Peachy Keen, PK-1337, In The Kitchen My Creative Time, You're Perk-fect stamp set (coffee beans) Quickutz oval die My Favorite Things, fishtail tag die October Afternoon, cherries washi tape Stampin Up pattern papers
