July Peachy Keen Sneak Peeks!


Hello! I'm so excited to share some sneak peaks of the brand new Peachy Keen July Kit of the Month! Once again - Kathy has outdone herself with one ADORABLE bunch of stamps! I really wish I had managed to sneak in a few more days to play with them, but we are out of town right now (and hopefully this is auto-posting successfully!) - so this was all I was able to get put together before leaving. Can't wait to get home and play more though! Anyway, here is the first of the two cards I have to share with you:
Great banners, huh? Would you ever guess that they are actually the cones to go with ice cream? LOVE how versatile these stamps can be! I stamped and cut them out of some Basic Grey PB&J paper to make my banners. 
I cut a circle of kraft paper with my Spellbinders Nestabilities, and embossed it with my Cuttlebug.  
Strung some twine across the card, anchoring with staples, and attached my banners over the top with some pop-dots and glue.
Added some lace from Ribbon Carousel, some more twine and a PTI button, and a sentiment from the new kit as well. Also inked the edges of everything with Tim Holtz distress ink. 
And here is my second card: 
I LOVE the faces on this months release! Definitely can't wait for an assortment pack of these!  
I colored this one with Copics on another circle I cut and embossed with my Spellbinders Nestabilities, and stamped the sentiment right below.
I used a MFT Die-namics border die to cut the orange border.
All the papers on here are from My Minds Eye. I also tucked some burlap underneath the colored image. 
Finished off with some crinkle ribbon, jute twine, and a PTI button.  
Thanks for stopping by again for a sneak peek! Can't wait to share the entire release with you! Have a wonderful day!

New May Peachy Keen Kit of the Month Sneak Peaks!


Good morning! I get to share some sneak peeks with you today for the brand new May Kit of the Month from Peachy Keen! You will be able to find all the info on the new releases HERE. I have two cards I made with the new sets - one for Mother's Day, and one for Father's Day! LOVE that this set has a sentiment for each! Here is the first one:
As soon as I saw these images, I instantly thought of this paper from my Basic Grey Konichiwa 6x6 paper pad - isn't it perfect? 
I colored the images a bit with my Copics, then cut them out by hand. I then punched a tiny hole in each lamp, then threaded through some PTI twine to "hang" the lanterns, and pop-dotted them from the card base.  
I placed the sentiment on a piece of cardstock, inked the edges with Tim Holtz distress ink, then tucked it under the center panel of patterned paper.  
And here is the next card:
Isn't that image so cute?!?!? I added a face to it as well, and colored with some Copics. When I showed it to my husband, he said it needed smoke. So...I cut the steam swirl off of the top of the tea cut from last months KOTM, and cut a slit to tuck it in close so it looks like smoke coming out! Here is a pic of the kit:


The tools are also from the brand new May Kit, colored and tucked behind the sentiment banner (which I hand trimmed) - and then pop-dotted on the bottom for a bit of dimension.  
I used My Mind's Eye 6x6 paper for the denim background, and the gingham paper was from a Lily Bee Design 6x6 paper pad. 
Also inked the edges of everything with Tim Holtz distress ink. 
And here is a pic of the new Kit! Isn't it darling?!?!?!


Well - if you made it to the end of this long post - thanks for sticking around!!! Make sure and check out the new releases HERE!!!
