Peachy Keen & Quick Quotes Blog Hop

Thank you so much for joining us for the Peachy Keen Stamps and Quick Quotes joint blog hop! 
If you've just came from the Quick Quotes blog, then you are hopping along just fine. I'm the first designer on the hop today.  You'll have until Sunday night to complete the hop and leave comments for a chance to win a prize!

Peachy Keen Stamps and Quick Quotes have partnered this weekend to bring you incredible creations from both Design Teams. You'll see how versatile our products truly are!  I used paper and vellum quotes from the Live Out Loud collection at Quick Quotes.  Please note that the pretty orange and lime green print papers are the back side of the papers shown on the product page.  I also used 2 of the Peachy Keen face sets to create my punch art characters.  The faces on the birds are from the PK-482 Winter Wonderland Face Assortment.  The face on the frog prince is from PK-741 Baby Animals.
