Peachy Keen Guest Design Week - Day 1

Good Monday morning!!! If you're visiting from the Peachy Keen Blog - WELCOME!!! (If not - click HERE to head over there and leave a comment there for another chance to win something fun!) 

I'm so excited this week to get to share with you my love of Peachy Keen stamps. They have so many fun things to offer, and I used some things newer to me that I will be sharing with you this week, but my first love is definately their face stamps! It is amazing how much fun and character you can add to a project with them! So this week I thought I would share with you some of my favorite sets. I started today with the Laffy Taffy Face Assortment.


I used my Cricut and the Birthday Bash cartridge to cut out the candles, and after doing a bit of inking, added the faces. I use an eye make-up applicator and a pink stamp pad to add the "blush" on the cheeks, a white gel pen to color in the mouth and eyes, and a red copic for the lips. I ran the white behind the candles through my Cuttlebug, then pop-dotted the candles, as well as the sentiment from the background. This picture shows the dimension a little bit better:


All the pattern papers are from the Echo Park Happy Days 6x6 paper pad - my favorite for cardmaking. I used some Tim Holtz distress ink on the edges of everything - my new favorite for inking! The sentiment is from Emma over at My Creative Time - her stamps are also manufactured by Peachy Keen! Finished off with some Baker's Twine behind the sentiment. 


Here is the set I used for my card today:


Laffy Taffy Face Assortment - $25.00

And...of course what you have been waiting for!


 Peachy Keen has been kind enough to allow me to select something to giveaway this week to a lucky commenter!!! So...I thought I would let the winner choose what they would like! So, one lucky person this week will win a $25 gift certificate so you can shop for whatever you would like!!!

Thanks for stopping by to visit - look forward to seeing you back here tomorrow!!!

Here are links to some past posts where I used the same set:
