Peachy Keen Sketch Challenge

I'm so ready for Christmas, so I decided to make a Christmas card for this week's Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge.  We have a Secret Santa Christmas exchange at my school, so I decided to make a card to use for one day that week.  It has been a while since I have been able to participate in a challenge, so I am so excited to finally get the chance!

 Supplies:

Simply Charmed cartridge-Santa cut at 2 1/4in.

Plantin School Book-circles cut at 2 1/2 in. and 2 3/4 in.

Peachy Keen Sketch Challenge 17

I was so excited to see this week is a sketch challenge at Peachy Keen.  I decided to create a layout instead of a card.  I am a scrapbooker at heart.  I am MONTHS...no YEARS behind now.  I am still scrapbooking 2010 right now.  I make a chronological album per year for each of my children.  We recently welcomed our third child in February, so now I REALLY feel behind!  Needless to say, I feel very compelled to do a layout...or several for that matter!  So here it is...

This was really fun to make.  I've learned so much about layouts over this past year of following blogs.  The details make all the difference (when I have time to put them in there).

Supplies:

Perfume, lipstick, blow dryer-Paisley cartridge-2.5 in.

Tag behind title-Once Upon a Princess

Pretty Princess-Life's a Party-2.5 in.

PKS-Happy Lashes Assortment

Cardstock-Papertrey Ink

Patterned Paper-from my stash

Ek Sucess-Scalloped Border Punch

Ribbon-Raspberry Fizz-Papertrey Ink

Gel Pens and Chalk

And here it is with my oldest little girl's pictures:

Have a great day!

Peachy Challenge 16: 3D Objects SOUPer Fun

This week's challenge at Peachy Keen was to use a soup can to create a 3D object.  I decided to make a pencil can for my classroom.  I ALWAYS have students who need to borrow a pencil.  I thought this would be cute for that purpose...and of course it is PURPLE!  My whole classroom has a purple theme, hence, the name of my blog...

Supplies:

Recollections patterned paper

Papertrey Ink cardstock

Gypsy Font Cartridge for monogram cut at 3.25 in. and 3.5 in.

Create-a-Critter worm cut at 1.5 in.

PKS Wide Eyed Kids stamp

White gel pen, chalk

Lavender Stickles

Have a great day!  Also, check out some of my Teacher Appreciation gift ideas.

Peachy Challenge 15: Just Cards

 This weeks Peachy Keen Challenge was to create a card with your own background.  I was excited because I've been wanting to try this out.  I used white cardstock and embossed it using the flower from My Pink Stamper's Simply Sweet Occasions stamp set.  I'm new to the whole embossing stuff, but I thought it came out pretty okay for my first time to do this.

Supplies:

Peachy Keen Happy Lashes Stamp Set

My Pink Stamper Simply Sweet Occasions Stamp

My Creative Time Bloom Where You Are Planted for the sentiment

Cardstock and ribbon-Papertrey Ink

Flower-Create-a-Critter-cut at 3.25 in.
