It's Fall.....{PKS Challenge Card}

Happy Saturday everyone!

Hope you are all having a great weekend so far and not digging into the kid's Halloween stash too much (oh wait that is me...LOL!!)

 Time to share another Peachy Keen Stamps challenge project.

This week the challenge is:

 Just Cards:Leaves

and here is my Fall inspired card. Hope you like it!

Didn't it turn out cute??

For my card I used a Kraft Card stock base and added a layer of designer paper from Simple Stories~Take a Hike paper pack. I did add some machine stitching around the border and then added a few candie's from my stash. 

For the main image, I used my PTI tag die and stamped my sentiment using PKS~ October SOTM kit.  Then using my favorite leaf dies from My Creative Time~Piles of Smiles, I cut 3 in the matching Simple Stories designer paper and then stamped those cute PK faces on them using the same PKS October SOTM kit. 

To finish my card up I added some Natural Hemp Cord from The Kraft Outlet as well as some Jute String from Sparkly Sweet Craft Notions.

So there is my fall inspired card.

Hope you have enjoyed it!

Thanks for stopping by and have a GREAT rest of your weekend!!

Valentine's Pillow Box

Hi Everyone!!
I wanted to pop in and share a Valentine's Day Pillow box I made to enter into a few challenges.
I have never played in the Make it Monday challenge w/PTI and while reading my email and checking out the new challenge I thought I would give it a try. 
I LOVE my PTI cardstock so I used some Sweet Blush for the base of my pillow box.
I do not own PTI's pillow box die but I was able to use my Cameo and cut one out :)
The challenge, besides making a pillow box was to do stamping on it so with My Creative Time's~Coffee Break Stamp set and Tim Holtz Spun Sugar Distress Ink...I stamped the entire pillow box with the polka dots background.
Not only do I love the extra it gives to the pillow box...it also matches my digi's dress :)

 The super adorable digi is from By Lori Designs~Sweetheart Valentine - Four (Puddle Jumpers Ella).
I was lucky enough to win a FB contest and the prize was the adorable Sweetheart Valentines Bundle~ 4 Super adorable images.
I colored her with my copic markers, die cut her out using my FAVORITE tag die from PTI and attaching her to my pillow box with a Black Organdy Ribbon.
Not much in the way of embellishments...I wanted to keep it simpler to really showcase the cute digi and the great texture on the pillow box.
This will make for a great treat in the hub's lunch :)

So I hope you have enjoyed my project!
Thanks so much for stopping by
and have a GREAT night!!!

TAWS~ I'm Nuts and Bolts About You

Morning!!

It is my DT day over at The Alley Way Stamps and 

I am here to share another Valentine's Day card using the new stamp set~ 

Lighter Than Air

I have already shared a card using the adorable light bulb so I thought I would make something using the cute nuts and bolts...more of a manly man card but still all lovey lovey....LOL!

I hope you like it!!

I used TAWS sentiment and stamped it on the outside of a mini bitty bag from

My Craft Spot

That cute heart die is from My Creative Time and to attach it to my card I ran a line of stitching through the heart as well as added some stitching to the outside.

And here is the cute tag that fits into the bitty bag.

It is a newbie die for me from PTI...I have been eyeing this Tag Die forever and finally bought it as a gift to me from me :)

I stamped it a number of times using the nuts and bolts from the stamp set and then colored them in using my copic.

I added some 3 Girl Jam crinkle ribbon in white from the seasonal Red/White/Blue bundle and tied a bow using some Midnight Trendy Twine!

So what do you think??

I sure hope you like it!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a GREAT weekend!!!

LOVE it!!!

So time to see my project....

Walking through the store the other day I found this adorable fleece scarf that had the same colors as this month's Trendy Twine color we are showcasing so I thought...

why not wrap it up and tie an adorable tag around it for a gift...

Seeing that I have boys...anything cute and pink and cute...(yeah I said that twice..LOL) I eat up...and this is something I think turned out adorable..

I used my new tag die from PaperTrey Ink~(I just can not get enough of it)

and the adorable PKS~Critter Faces for the adorable penguin I cut using a file from the Silhouette Store. 

Here is a close-up of the tag and all the fun Watermelon Taffy Twine that was added.... on the buttons, as a scarf on my penguin and to help tie my tag onto my scarf.
