Peachy Keen Stamps Challenges

Hello friends!!  Today there is a new challenge over on the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge Blog.  It is called Chalk It Up! and the challenge is to make a card using chalk.  For my card, I stamped the mailbox image from the new July Kit of the Month from Peachy Keen Stamps and colored it in with some chalk.  Love the soft color effect......
The sentiment is stamped from My Creative Time's All Around Everything stamp set.  The stitched circle is cut from the Scallop and Stitched Circle die from My Creative Time.  I also used some scraps pieces of paper and a little bakers twine from The Twinery on my card.  So, why don't you pull out some chalk (you know you have some somewhere) and join us for this super fun challenge over at the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge blog.

Right now over on the Peachy Keen Connection, there is a super fun July Release Party going on and I am hosting Challenge #2.  I created a sketch and you all can play along to win some AWESOME prizes.  You gotta be quick, you only have until Sunday night to get your entries in over on the Peachy Keen Connection.  Here is the sketch and my card:
I used the new Thank You Dolls stamp set from Peachy Keen Stamps (this is a stamp set you could win for participating in my sketch challenge on the Peachy Keen Connection).  I colored in the dolls with some Copic markers and then paper pieced their clothes.  I added some pen stitching to the card to match the stitching on the dolls.  To the card, I added some ruffled paper strips to the bottom and tied it all off with a big bow and added the Be Happy! sentiment from the July Kit of the Month and I used the tag die from My Creative Time's Teen Tag Greeting stamp and die set.

Don't forget that you have until Sunday to get your entries in for my 5th Blogiversary Giveaway....there are three different prizes up for grabs.  CLICK HERE to get entered today!!  Thanks for stopping by!!

Hugs,
Amy
