Peachy Keen New Release

It's that time of month again!  Peachy Keen Stamps has a new batch of stamps out and they are FABULOUS!  The June Stamp of the Month set will knock your socks off!  This set not only has a fabulous array of greetings and images, but the faces are the cutest yet.  I couldn't resist modifying the little frog image to use the turtle faces on it.   Both of my projects feature stamps from the June Stamp of the Month kit and the June Peachy Picks Paper kit.


There are so many wonderful projects at the challenge site.  Check them out HERE.  Be sure to check out the site every day until the official release day party on the 5th!  

Frog Box Instructions:
Stamp the little frogs on the green polkadot paper from the kit and then cut off the eye bumps at the top and stamp the turtle face instead.  The little bellies were paper pieced using scraps from the kit.  Since these images bent perfectly at the feet to make them stand up, I made a little frog couple holding hands.  I wanted to give them a home so I punched an Extra Large Oval and cut out a little wedge to create the lily pad then sponged the edges with garden green ink.

The box is a very simple one.  Box base is 6 x 6 scored at 2" on all 4 sides.  Clip score lines on 2 opposite sides and adhere the corner tabs on the inside to form box bottom.  Cut a piece of 3-1/16" x 3-1/16" and score at 1/2" on all 4 sides for the lid.  Assemble the same as box bottom.  Iie a ribbon from the kit around box and tied bow in front.  Attach lilypad to top of box with dimensionals.

For the little sign, cut a strip of paper from the kit and stamp greeting with garden green ink.  Clip the pointed ends.  Curl the ends around a pen to make it "wavy".  Attach flower from the paper kit to sign and then attach to top of lily pad.

  2. Your projects are absolutely perfect. I love the idea of changing up the frogs a little bit so you could use those face stamps. And your bird card is ADORABLE too! Hugs- Glora
