Peachy Keen New Release Blog Hop

If you arrived here from Heidi's blog, you are on the right track.  If not, you will want to start at the beginning of the hop HERE.  The new Peachy Keen stamps ROCK!  I had so much fun creating with these stamps.  Although three of the sets were intended to be get well/sympathy sets, Kathy got the ingenious idea to create an  accessory face set to go along with these sets so you could make them look happy.  The sets I was assigned to was the PK-287 Ballin' Bunnies and the PK-291 Sampler Package of Faces to swap the faces. I loved so many of the sets that I had to do more than one project and I mixed and matched the greetings from two of the sets in my projects.  The other set I used is the PK-288 Skunk Cheer Up.

BLOG HOP CANDY ALERT!!

Kathy is not only giving away several awesome prizes on the PKS Challenge blog, but she is also awarding a $25 gift certificate to each of the Design Team members to give away to their readers!  How awesome is that?  So, are you ready to win some prizes?  Leave a comment here and you have a great chance of winning a super prize!  Take the time to visit the other stops and you increase your chances of winning!

Card Instructions:

Ballin' Bunny T-Slide card

Cut the following pieces:

4 1/4" x 5 1/2" Cardstock or designer paper for card back

4" x 5 1/4" designer paper for card front

3 7/8" x 5 1/8" white card stock for inside card

3 7/8" x 3" white card stock for bunny front

4" x 3 1/8" cherry cobbler card stock for bunny front

3 3/8" x 4 1/4" designer paper for bunny front

1" x  4 1/2" card stock for T slide pull

1" x 3" card stock for T slide pull

For the card assembly, follow my basic instructions for the T-Slide card HERE.   The only difference is that you won't be cutting a slit or creating a pop out message for the inside of the card (skip steps 5 through 7).  For the A2 cutting and scoring diagram, go HERE

For the Bunny, you can use masking to replace the sad face.  Heidi has a great photo tutorial on how to do that HERE.

5 x 7 Double Twist Easel Card

Cut the following pieces of card stock:

7" x 7" Old Olive

two 3 1/2" x 3 1/2"  Soft Sky

1) Fold card stock in half and sharpen crease with bone folder.  Cut at 3 1/2" on opposite side of crease to the center fold line as shown.

2) Fold the inside top corners of the 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" top sections to the lower outside corners as shown.  Unfold triangle and fold flaps down towards bottom of card as shown in step 3.

3) Apply strong adhesive to triangular flaps as shown.  Attach 3 1/2 x 3 1/2" pieces of soft sky.

4) Embellish card.  I stamped, colored and cut out skunk.  The flowers were created by layering Boho Blossom punched flowers and the small flower for the Itty Bitty Punch pack.  I used the jewel pearls to embellish.  Stems of the flowers are from the 2-Step Bird punch.   The grass is die cut and embossed with square lattice embossing folder.  Clouds are from the 2-Step Cupcake punch.  For the inside of the card, cut a 4 7/9 x 6 7/8" designer paper.  Stamp and die cut greeting.  I used Nestibilities Label 14.  The designer paper I used is from the Flea Market line by Colorbok.
