Saundra Rega :: Teddy Bear Cuteness :: THANKSGIVING SALE!

Hi Peachy Friends! Saundra here from Luv Scrapping Together!

We are only one day away from Thanksgiving! Many of you are very busy getting ready. I know I am!

Well, I finally succumbed to all the cuteness and bought myself the Teddy Bear Parade Cricut cartridge. I just couldn't resist all those images and great projects that I had seen all over the internet and from all you talented people!

With that being said, for my Peachy Keen feature today I put together a card using one of these cute little bears. Not only that, I put together a few more bears so that you can see several different Peachy Keen Face stamps that will bring these cuties to life!

Get ready for some cuteness overload!

All of the bears I am showing you today were cut from the Cricut Lite Teddy Bear Parade cartridge at 3 inches. I used the blackout for each bear so that I could use my Peachy Keen Stamps.

For the little bee bear I used the eyes from PKSC-10 October 2012. I filled in the whites with my White Gelly Roll Pen and added some blue to his eyes with my Copic marker. The little elf's face comes from PK-146 Piles of 1" Smiles. Again, I used my gel pen and Copic markers.

This cute little santa was stamped with PK-441 Cute and Cuddly 1 1/8" Faces and the reindeer was stamped with PK-755 Critter Faces Large. I added white highlights with my gel pen and I gave shine to all of the bears eyes and noses using Ranger Glossy Accents.

You will be seeing these bears again on my blog in the near future. :)

For my last bear, I created a card. Again, I cut my bear at 3". 

I used PK-135 Medium Bear Facial Features. For this cute little turkey, um bear, I created some texture on his body using my Cuttlebug and the Houndstooth embossing folder. I also embossed the brown strip behind that turkey using Swiss Dots.

I thought it would be fun to put this little guy on an Action Wobble. I'm thinking he looks a little peacked. Poor little guy! I stamped and heat embossed my sentiment using PK-141 Lil' Tweets Thanksgiving.

The inside sentiment is from PKSC-10 October 2012.

As you can see there are many different options that you can use with these bears. I've only given you a few to start. Peachy Keen Stamps offer tons more!

I hope you all have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

Kim Score :: Slider Card Tutorial

Hello, this is Kim Score from Paper Punch Addiction.  If you've been to my blog before, you know that I have a real love for interactive cards that pop up, slide and move.  Today I'm going to show you how to create a slider card that reveals a cute little punch art snow girl.

I was really excited when Peachy Keen came out with the newest set of face stamps called Piles of Smiles. This set is available in both a 1" and 3/4" size, perfect for punch art!  The set contains all of my favorite faces from the past few Stamp of the Month sets.  You will definitely want to add the PK-146 Piles of 1" Smiles to your collection.   Check out this awesome assortment!

Here is my card with the slide in both positions.  If the instructions I provide are not detailed enough, you can check out the original double slider tutorial at the Splitcoast Stampers site HERE.  Obviously I modified the card to show my pop up character on the front instead of a sentiment.

Supplies:

Note: all punches, ink pads and card stocks used are from Stampin' Up!

PK-146 Piles of 1" Smiles stamp set

PK-859 Christmas Greeting Words stamp set

1-3/8" Circle, Full Heart, Boho Blossoms, Cupcake Builder, Modern Label, 1/2" Circle, Word Window punches

Pink Pirouette, Chocolate Chip, Cherry Cobbler, Bashful Blue, Wild Wasabi, Shimmery White card stocks

Designer papers of choice

Basic Black, Pretty in Pink, Not Quite Navy, Garden Green ink pads

Pentel white gel pen, quicky glue pen, dazzling diamonds glitter

Dimensionals, sticky strip, tombow liquid glue

Instructions:

Step 1

To create the girl, punch the following pieces:

(1) 1-3/8" Circle from pink pirouette - HEAD

(2) Cupcake Builder (top) from chocolate chip - HAIR

(3) Modern Label from polkadot print - SCARF

(1) Full Heart from red print - HAT

(1) 1-3/8" Circle from red print - BODY

(6) Boho Blossoms from Shimmery White - HAT

(2) 1/2" Circles from cherry cobbler - MITTENS

Stamp the face with basic blank ink.  Color in whites of eyes with gel pen.  Color pink onto nose with blender pen and stipple/sponge pink onto cheeks.  Sponge edge of head with pretty in pink ink.

Step 2

Glue hair onto sides of head.  Glue hat onto top of head.  Glue 5 boho blossoms along hat brim and add blossom with dimensional to top of hat.  Glue head onto body.  Cut one modern label in half and glue at neck.  Glue other modern labels onto scarf at neck.

Step 3

Cut bashful blue cardstock 4-1/4" x 11" and fold in half.  Using word window punch, align side of punch at score line and slide towards center of card as far as it will go and punch.  

Step 4

Repeat step 3 on other side so you have 2 slots side by side.  Punch four 1/2" circles from scrap card stock. Add a dimensional to the center of 2 circles.  On each slot, place dimensional into slot from back and attach other 1/2" circle to create sliding circles.

Step 5

For the slider card, cut a piece of wild wasabi 3-1/2" x 5-3/8".  Decorate top of card as desired (keep in mind how much will show when card is assembled).  Glue 1-3/8" punched circle folded in half at top of card.  With the card base open and slots positioned on bottom half, lay card onto top half.  Add glue to the two slider circles and close card.  The circles will stick to the slider card.  Allow glue to dry.

Step 6

Open card back up and add sticky strip along outer edges as shown.  Close card to adhere sides.

Step 7

On front of card, glue snow girl body to one of the sliding circles.

Step 8

Cut a 3-1/2" x 4-1/4" piece of Shimmery white card stock and tear along the top.  Apply glue and glitter along top torn edge.  Attach to front of card (along side and bottom edges) with dimensionals.  Tear several other pieces of shimmery white card stock.  Add glitter to edges and layer onto front of card to create "snow bank".  The snow bank should cover most of the girl.  Attach mittens at top of snowbank on each side of girl.  Stamp a greeting onto the front of card.  Note: I changed the design of my sliding card after the pictures were taken. Adding layers to the top of sliding card has a tendency to "catch" the upper edge of the card base when sliding in and out.
