Amber Kroening :: Merry Christmas Sweets!



Hey there, Amber here, from Bella Rose Cards!  I decided to stick with our Christmas in July theme for today's post.  I love the little peppermint candy stamps this month!  I stamped these on white card stock and used a circle die to cut them, and then colored them with copics to match my Echo Park paper.  I drew three lines with a glitter pen to "hang" them, and adhered the candies with foam adhesive.  Below I stamped a duel-color sentiment using stamps from the July set of the month. I tied a bow near the top of the panel and adhered it to my card. Super easy and sweet! ;)



Also, don't forget about the sale that is going on this week!

Gigi McKellips :: Holly Jolly Christmas!

Hello everyone! This is GiGi from The Cricut Bug to share a card with you.
Did you see that Peachy Keen is all about Christmas In July this month? And how CUTE are the new stamps?
Well, I am continuing with the Christmas In July with a fun card to share.


HOW cute is this fun tree?!?!?!




I used Peachy Keen's Santa Tree stamp set for this card. This is such a fun stamp set! I had a ball creating this card...I almost had to turn on my Christmas music! LOL!
I stamped and paper pieced the tree and I used some Copic markers to highlight and shade him. I also stamped the face and colored it in with copics and a white gel pen.
The background of this card is heat embossed using some sparkle embossing powder and I used the larger "HO" stamp. 
I stamped the sentiment onto a Tiny Doilies Die and stamped the sentiment onto the snow layer. 
To finish I added a line of glitter using a Viva Decor Glitter Pen.

Here is the stamp set that I used to create this fun card!

I hope you all enjoyed seeing my card and thanks for visiting! Have a great day!

GOOD MORNING!!
We are THRILLED to introduce you to our Guest Designer for the month of July!
Please join us in giving a BIG Peachy Keen Welcome to
Brianna Loffelbein!!


A little about Brianna in her own words...
Hello, my name Is Brianna aka Happy Scrapper. I am a wife to a wonderful husband and a momma to the most precious two year old son. We live in a quite little town, in northern Minnesota, don't-cha know!! When I am not working full time you can find this momma in her craft room. I enjoy all things crafty, sewing, crochet, beading and of course paper-crafts. I started my blog in March of 2012 and have been hooked ever since. I have been crafting for the better part of 10 years now. I have been very fortunate to be apart of many fantastic Design teams and am very thankful for all of the opportunities I have been giving. 
 I felt like a little kid on Christmas morning when I was asked to be a guest designer for Peachy Keen!! I have been a Peachy fan for quite some time and my love for their products has now grown into an obsession! Thank you so much for this absolutely outstanding honor. 

HUGE THANKS to Brianna for joining us this month!  
We are all looking forward to each and every creation and hope you will drop by her blog and let her know how much you appreciate her work!!

Hello Everyone, It's Brianna from Happy Scrapper! I am so beyond excited to be guest designer for Peachy Keen stamps for the entire month of July. My excitement reminds me of that one TV commercial where the kids find out they are going to Disney world, and they tell their parents, that they are to excited to sleep. Yes, I did just compare me being a guest designer for Peachy Keen Stamps to Disney world, lol!! 
The first card I am going to share with you this month, I made using a couple different stamp sets, here is what I came up with.


 Stamp sets used:
PKSC- 16 April 2013                                                                                 PK-279 Faceless Bugs
 
                                                               
I decided to do a shaker card for my first project, I think it turned out pretty cute. The entire time I was working on this card I was humming "I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee". I cut the jar out twice using the svg set for the somk. I used my x-acto knife to cut out the inside of the top jar and added a piece of acetate using my atg gun. This was pretty tuff just for the fact that I had to cut my foam tape really narrow in order for you not to see it and keep all my elements in my jar. The time it took to do it was well worth it, don't you think!? I colored my bee and the jar using my Spectrum Noirs. My papers are from a digital paper pack called "Sweet Girl" by Echo park. I hope you all enjoyed my 1st project and I hope you will be back to see the rest of my creations throughout the month!!
