Tanya Adams :: Back To School Notebook

Hi there Peachy friends, how are you?  This is Tanya from Nonna's Craft Corner with a fun back-to-school project to share with you.  My granddaughter will be starting the 3rd grade in a few days and I wanted to make something special for her first day back at school.  I decided to go with a notebook to help her keep with all those important things 3rd graders have to keep up with.....

To put this little cutie together, I covered some chipboard (4.5 X 5.5) with some school patterned paper.  I cut paper for the inside from plain computer printer paper and bound everything together with some red wire and my Cinch.

I added some pretty twine and those cute little red glasses that I found in the jewelery making section of my local craft store.  Next, I pulled out my PK stamps and got inky!

I love the notebook paper stamp from the August 2012 PK Stamp Club - PKSC-08.  I stamped it onto white cardstock to use as my background mat.  I wanted to personalize Emma's notebook so I pulled out my Lucy's ABC's & 123's set - PK-155 and stamped the letters for Emma's name onto my background mat. I love these letters because they can be colored in to match anything!

Next, I hand cut a bit of grass from some green polka dot paper.  Then I colored up this darling little schoolhouse (from the PKSC-08 set) with my Copic markers, cut it out and glued everything together.

Okay, now for the inside.....

I made a little pocket and tag for the inside cover. The front of the pocket is peachied up with another cute image from the PKSC-08 set.  I just love that apple with the silly face and glasses!  And, because my granddaughter is so smart (spoken like a true Nonna), I added the A+ stamp in the bottom right hand corner of the pocket!

Using a few more images from this stamp set, I randomly stamped a few pages inside the notebook for Emma to doodle on...in her "free time" of course!

And, here's a photo with the tag removed from the pocket....

Isn't that little pencil just too cute?

Well, I think that about wraps up my back-to-school project. Thank you so much for stopping by today - I always enjoy sharing my PK projects with you!  And, speaking of sharing, before I let you go I want to share this awesome PK Sale with you.....

Pretty awesome, huh?  You don't want to miss this one!

I hope you have a Peachy day!

Emily Kluender :: Coolest Crayon In the Box

If you're looking for the Spring Fling Blog Hop, please CLICK HERE.

Hi Peachy friends!!! Emily here from Creations of an Army Wife, and I've got a layout to share with you today. This is was my son's first day of preschool. He was so excited to start and picked this shirt out at the store. So his shirt was the inspiration for this layout. 

The title was stamped using Lucy's Solid ABC's and 123's. The adorable little crayons, two sweet faces, and the sentiments come from PKSC-08 August 2012 Stamp of the Month Sets. I also used the "you're" from the new Honey Sentiments.The rest of the faces come from The Moodies face assortment and Simple Simons face assortment. For the middle crayon, I just stamped the Simple Simon face and filled in the glasses with a black gel pen. 

I cut the crayon box using Cricut's Simply Charmed Cartridge @ 4 inches. The three PK crayons fit perfectly. The arrow was cut from Cricut's Art Philosophy Cartridge @ 2 inches. The crayon scribble was cut from Cricut's Calligraphy Cartridge @ 1.5 inches.

Other products used:

Memento Bahama Blue, Lady Bug, Tuxedo Black Inks

Recollection's Pop Dots

Color Box Red Cat Eye Ink

White Gel Pen

Target Dollar Twine

Seasonal Banner Frame :: Melissa Haas

Hello Peachy Friends! It is Melissa here to share my seasonal banner frame.

I enjoy decorating for the seasons and with the kids in school

a "Peachy ABC" school theme banner seemed like a fun idea.

The banner pieces are hung with wooden clothespins that hang on floral wire.

This way I can switch out the banners for different seasons. 

The school house and apple are from PKSC-08 August 2012.



This cute bus is from PK-128 School Bus and Lunch.

And my cat is sleeping purrrrfectly on a bed of daisies

made with PK-118 Flower Power Frame.

The sweet calico cat's face is  from PK-110 Here Kitty Kitty Face Assortment.

 Above is a close up of Ms. Calico and the Dress.

The dress is from the girl stamp in the PKSC-7 July 2012 set.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your week!
