You're The Cat's Me Wow!

The Peachy Keen Connection had it's February Release Party the other day and has 2 Challenges going on to celebrate this newest release.

You can head on over to the Peachy Keen Stamps store and check out February's Out Of This World Release... it will send you to another Galaxy!

I have chosen to do the fun pattern filled Challenge #1 hosted by the talented Gigi McKellips.

Gigi's Challenge: Use both polka dots and stripes in your creations.  Make anything you choose, as long as it includes polka dots and stripes And uses the Peachy Keen Stamps of your choice.

It was a coworkers Birthday the other day and she loves cats, so I pulled out the Animal Kingdom cartridge.

I attached some Score Tape to white cardstock  and cut out this cute little cat then used some Martha Stewart Flocking Powder in Swan for her body and Peony for the tips of the ears.

I used the Peachy Keen Critter Faces Set A Small for her adorable face stamped in Staz On Jet Black. Her collar is some pink ribbon I had in my stash that I cut in half then added some tiny rhinestones... so cute!

What Kitty is complete without a few balls of yarn? I cut them from the Create A Critter cartridge and used Zots to attach Divine Twine in matching colors for my paper.

 My Polka Dots and Stripes paper is a Recollections Fruit pack that I got at Michaels and the ribbon is from my ever growing stash... heeehee.

The sentiment is from the Pink By Design's Rock On stamp set and embossed in Recollections Petal.

The inside sentiment is from Pink By Design's Joyful Tags stamp set.

There's a $25 Gift Certificate up for grabs in each of the challenges, so pull out your Peachy Keen Stamps and get into that crafty space and reach for the stars!

Happy Haunting! PKS Blog Challenge #37

There's a fun Sketch challenge going on over at Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge Blog.

Create a card or layout using the provided sketch! They will be awarding "TOP PEACH" to the player who uses their Peachy Keen Stamps this week and the runner ups will receive a spiffy badge to display on their blog!

So here is my card for Challenge #37 - A Sketch.

I started by embossing the purple cardstock with the Cuttlebug and the Haunted Damask folder, then used some Ornate Green Gate paper in the Spooky and Kooky pack by Bazzill.

Using the Spellbinders Standard Circles Dies I cut several circles in different colors.

I used the Recollections Haunted House stamp set, Martha Stewart's Elegant Witch stamp set for the bats and the Peachy Keen Happy Haunting Ghosts stamp set for the ghost and the sentiment, which are all embossed in black.

I used the Peachy Keen Happy Haunting Ghosts stamp set for the inside of the card as well.

Here I layered all the circles together and embossed BOO! onto the smallest circle. I stamped, embossed and cut out another cute little ghost from the set and added him to the inside.

I just love these little ghosts, they are so cute! I actually won the stamp set over on the Peachy Keen Connection a few weeks back  and was so excited to get them in the mail and use them.

Head on over to both the PK Connection and the PKS Challenge Blog and check out all the fun and amazing stuff going on.
