Welcome Baby Banner

If you are looking for the My Creative Time June Release Blog Hop make sure to scroll down to the next post.

Hi sweet Peachy Keen Fans. Today is my day to post on the Peachy Keen Blog and I have a fun little 'welcome home baby' door sized banner to share with you.

Here is the whole banner so you can get an idea of how it looks all together.

And here is a closer shot:

All of the light blue paper was stamped with a background stamp by Peachy Keen Stamps called Grampa's Pajamas. I think it looks so sweet on here. The banner pieces are cut from the Birthday Bash Cricut cartridge and the letters are cut from the Pooh Font Cricut cartridge. I added eyelets and inking to each banner piece. I also added some faux stitching around each letter.

I love how sweet these little babies turned out with their Peachy faces, so I have a closeup of each baby:

The babies are cut from the New Arrival Cricut cartridge and their sweet faces are from the Just Baby Faces Assortment by Peachy Keen Stamps. I chalked the edges and cheeks and added some Glossy Accents to the eyes. The banner is connected with some tricolor Trendy Twine.

I hope you enjoyed this banner and I hope you have a wonderful day. Hugs- Glora

Hello Peachy Keen friends. It is my first official Peachy Keen Design Team post and I'm super excited to share a couple of cards that I made with the January 2012 Stamp of the Month set by Peachy Keen Stamps. It is a super cute and very versatile set. I also wanted to let you know that we will be having a linky party over on the PKS Challenge Blog so that all of you can link up a Peachy Keen project too! I hope you will all join in the Peachy fun!

My first card uses the largest heart on the January 2012 Stamp of the Month set. I also used the XOXOXOXO A-2 Background Stamp for the background.

Isn't she a cutie? I just love that face. I colored her by inking her up with Distress Ink and Versafine inks in 3 shades of red (I've seen my DT sister Nikki do this with distress inks and had to try it). From there I did a little paper piecing. I will admit that I was too lazy to cut out all the little flowers so I added some Prima flowers and pearls instead. I also found out that this darling sentiment from the January 2012 stamp of the month set fit perfectly on Emma's Stitched Oval Die.

And here is my second card, I just could not get this idea out of my head until I made her up:

I used the smaller angel from the January 2012 Stamp of the Month set and colored her up. I trimmed her wings and halo off and added a face from the Just Baby Faces stamp set by PKS. I hand cut and inked up her legs. The bed is cut from the Sugar and Spice Cricut Lite cartridge. And the perfect sentiment for this scene is from Emma's Pain Pain Go Away stamp set.

Here is a closer look at this stamp set. Just imagine this full sheet of stamps at 8 1/2" x 11". They are big beautiful stamps. And there are SO many possibilities with this set, I just love the options just from interchanging the faces...

Make sure to stop by the Peachy Keen Challenge Blog to see what awesome inspiration the design team has for you and to link up your own Peachy Keen project too. Hugs- Glora

Sneak Peek #4 - My Creative Time September Release

Welcome to day 4 of sneak peeks over at My Creative Time. Can I say that this new release has been SO much fun to work with. Today we are working with an AMAZING die and stamp set called Build a Banner Kit. It is FABULOUS!!!! I am seriously SO in love with this set!

Do you see those beautiful polka dots and stripes on the main banner pieces? Those come with the stamp and die kit and are just the right size to stamp and then cut your pieces (they are 2x2 in size). In fact I also stamped the baby's outfit and blanket with the houndstooth background that comes in this kit! The kit includes 4 dies and 4 (2x2) pattern stamps. The letters in the middle of the banner do not come with this kit, but the alphabet that comes with the Anyday Bingo and Crossword set fit perfectly inside! I also used Emma's Scallop and Stitched Circle Dies along with the All Star Baby stamp set.

The darling baby is from the Baby Steps Cricut cartridge and to make it even cuter I stamped its face with the Just Baby Faces by Peachy Keen Stamps.

Simply Crafts with Glora and Pam #6

Hello, and welcome to the first Wednesday of the month and another fun cut challenge between me and Pam. It was my month to choose a cut. I recently got the Baby Steps cartridge and haven't had a lot of time to play with it yet so I wanted to use it. I said we could do either the baby boy or the girl sleeping on the moon cut. Mine is a simple shape card (but a little more tricky without my sweet Gypsy).

I LOVE this sentiment from Emma's newest stamp release called Encouraging Quotes. I think it is perfect for this cut. This particular cut doesn't include the stars, I just added some stars from the Baby Steps cartridge. I inked all the edges. And this baby would not be NEARLY as cute without that darling Peachy Keen face stamp from the Just Baby Faces assortment! It is just the sweetest set for baby cuts!

I hope you will make sure to stop by Pam's blog and see what she made with this cut. I'm a little late getting my post up and I already saw what she made. It is ADORABLE!!! You will LOVE it! So what are you waiting for click HERE to see her beautiful card and video!

My Creative Time - Release 7 - Sneak Peeks Day 2

I just got home from vacation and didn't have time to participate in Day 1 of sneak peeks but make sure you stop by Emma's blog (My Creative Time) for a lot of cute sneaks. Today is Day 2 of the sneak peeks and we are all using 'Inspiring Words' and 'Inspiring Words Accents.' These are two different sets and can be used separately or bought and used together. They are super cute and mix and match so well. And the Inspiring Words Accents comes with the super cute little shape that I stamped the sentiment in.

I recently bought the Playtime cartridge off of E-bay and I thought this little girl praying would be perfect with this combination of Inspiring Words and Inspiring Word Accents. I really believe in the power of prayer and I think this will be a great pick me up for someone needing that reminder. The darling little face is a Peachy Keen Face. It is from a set called Just Baby Faces.

Remember to comment on Emma's project and all the design team member's projects for a chance to win a set of your choice of Emma's stamps. And don't forget to share about it on FaceBook and Twitter. She may just chose someone spreading the news to receive that set of their choice.

Thanks for stopping by today! Hugs- Glora
