Peachy Keen Sketch Challenge #17

Happy Mother's Day! I have been at the crafting today and made this card for a sketch challenge at the Peachy Keen Challenge Blog. I would love to see what you make for this sketch challenge.

My card is made with PK-116 We go together stamps and my Cricut Imagine Kate's Kitchen cartridge.  I punched circles to cover the original faces and added these darling Peachy Keen faces from the same PK-116 set.  (BUT how fun would it be to put a "sneezy" face on the pepper shaker...).  Just a fun way to mix up some of your supplies to make something new. 

Graduation Card

I made this for a fun challenge at the Cricut Circle.  Use and older Cricut cartridge and a new one.  The shape card is made for you with the Wild Card cartridge.  I added the year with my newer cartridge Letter Envy.  The paper tassel was replaced with a ribbon to give it a little more movement. 

Happy Spring

This Spring scrapbook page was made for a "scraps only" with cuttle bug folders challenge for the Cricut Circle.  I always have a bag of scrap paper that I pick through to make my Cricut cuts so this was right up my alley.  I even used the scraps of the scraps to make a funky boarder for my photo.  The bunny is from Simply Charmed and the rest of the cuts are from Seasonal Cakes.

Sweet Gnome

This card has been "in my mind" for a  long time.  I purchased the Gnomes and Mushrooms Cricut Craft Room Digital Cartridge a long time ago... and thought how cute the gnome would look with a Peachy Keen Stamps' Face.  Cricut Circle has a challenge to make a project using at least 3 cuts from Cricut Craft Room exclusives and this is my entry.  The Base and the heart is from Craft Room Basics.  He is a sweet gnome if I do say so myself.

Cricut Circle Art Inspiration Challenge

For National Scrapbook Day the Cricut Circle Blog has some great Challenges.  This challenge they wanted you to make a project inspired by a piece of art.  I was drawn the the rose and the shabby chic design.  I cut the bag with my Cricut Imagine from the Imagine More Cards.  I cut a tag from Jubilee (because I feel sorry for that cartridge... it is cute... I should use it more.) And added a tag on top from layers on a tag from the Imagine More Cards.  The rose was cut from Flower Shoppe with tan cardstock and inked the edges of the rose so match the design on the paper.

Think Big!

I made this SUPER sized burger with my brother in mind.  My burger is from one of the NEW stamps available this weekend at Peachy Keen Stamps, PK-114 Hot Diggity Dog. I masked off the top and bottom bun so I could add extra meat patties.  Be sure to check out the Peachy Keen Connection for some challenges to enter and you might win some of their new stamps.
