Look what the Grinch dragged in.

Hello Pinque Peacock fans. Today I have to share these darling little boy notecards I made for a friend that just had a precious package arrive at their house. I thought these would be great to give the new mommy so that she could send out thank you notes. The notecards are 3 x 3 with matching envelopes. I packaged them up with twine and put this precious Felt popper from Pinque Peacock on the front.

Easel Card Merry Christmas

Easel cards are so fun to make. It makes it easy to display your handmade love that you send out to people. Today I have an easel card that I made using Sweet Stamps Artsy Fartsy AF12 ( Love Birds) stamp.

I will be linking this card up to:

This release is showcasing some NEW products as well as some products that have been available in the shop for a while. This is a great way to see the Pinque Peacock Products in action and to get your creative imaginations in "Full Speed Ahead" mode!

I made two projects with the Pinque Peacock products I received from Jessica.
I am in the middle of getting items made for a craft show coming up next weekend. I fix up the tumblers that are so popular right now. This one I put two little blue birds in a nest on it, and topped it off with some white tulle and the fabulous Felt Popper that you can get in the Pinque Peacock store. 

Next I got this cute fox button. OF COURSE I had to do something with him to go along with that CRAZY , Can't get out of my head song. What does the Fox say ?
So I made a note card with the "saying" on the front in a banner style pennant wrapped in twine, and the cute button on top of some burlap. Used my pearl pens to add some extra pizzaz and I stamped Merry Christmas inside. Cause that is what My fox is saying. 
Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!
Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!
Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!

Hope you have enjoyed the Hop so far and now you are off to see

So make sure you stop in all this week, catch some inspiration and enter the giveaways!

There are so many talented ladies on this week hop that I was nervous about making my project. Kimberly is such a sweet heart for inviting me to join in today. We met on FB about 3 years ago and became friends through our love for the craft, I finally got to meet her this year for the first time face to face. Let me say she is even prettier in person, and is a hoot to hang out with. I wish we lived closer together so we could hang out more!!

Here is my project for the hop.

All papers are from my scrap stash so I could not tell you what brand it is. I made a tag with my Big shot and stamped Happy Halloween from a Stampin up set. Put some feathers and stick pin around it. I put Trendy Twine around the neck of the Bride. If you know me, you know I LOVE bling, so I put two strings of black rhinestone mesh to make it sparkle. I hope you are enjoying all the projects this week. Have a Spooky Day!!!

Fall is in the Air

Hi ladies, hope you are enjoying this Fall weather. I know I am! Today I wanted to share with you my Fall necklace that I made. Of course I had to put some Pinque Peacock Goodness on it. I started with the glass stones you can get at the Dollar Tree. I used a piece of scrap patterned paper and punched out a circle. I adhered it to the back of the stone with Mod Podge and let it dry. I got some metal findings at Hobby Lobby and used E6000 glue. I used 3Girl Jam ribbon and tied it around the chain and hot glued my favorite burlap button from Pinque Peacock. I am going to enjoy wearing this little piece!

Sweet Stamps Linky party challenge

Good Morning Crafters!! I am participating in the Linky party over at Sweet Stamps. I hope that you will join in on the challenge as well. This challenge is using a Step Card. If you have never made a step card, then you are in for a treat. You will fall in love with the design of the card. You can purchase the die from Sweet Stamps The item number is B348. I have started making my Christmas Cards this year and love how they turned out.

As you can see they are addicting.  

I hope that you will Hop over to Sweet Stamps and grab you some awesome items to use in your projects.

Most of all just BELIEVE!! 

A new Linky Party at Craftin Desert Diva's is going on and the theme is 

"Anything with a sentiment."  So I thought I would link up my fall project for the fun of it.

I love to alter notebooks. I am working on items for a upcoming craft fair, and these sell very well. I used Pinque Peacock burlap button and Stick Pin, 3 Girl Jam ribbon, and some leaf die cuts. MME paper pack and Unity stamp. Hope you enjoy this little project. Go on over and link your project today. 

Also Becky over at Just B Creative Crazy is having a linky party also. Its October Just because. So start getting linky!!!

Welcome to Pinque Peacock’s

SEPTEMBER BLOG HOP
"A PIRATES LIFE"

DAY #2

We hope you will enjoy your time as you hop and that you feel inspired to create after visiting the Talented Pinquettes' Blogs! This hop will showcase projects that have been created using some of the Newer Products from Pinque Peacock.

We are thrilled to have you joining us this month! This release is showcasing some of the Products that have been in the shop for a short time already. But now, the PINQUETTES get to DO THEIR THING, and show how wonderful and fun they are to work with on a variety of projects and creations.

Our September Release will focus on the theme: "A PIRATES LIFE".... Arrr!!!

I wanted to do a little something different for this project. When I think of pirates I think of them sitting on the ship all dirty and drinking up some RUM!! So I  got my Cricut out and went to town on making a vinyl skull. I thought it would be perfect on the front of the Stein. I had to add some red bling on the bottom for us girl pirates!   I made a grungy tag by inking up the sides with distressing ink , sprayed it with a silver misting spray, and used my brown viva color pen to add the "pearls" on the sides , stamped a skull and cross bone on it and put the AWESOME Pinque Peacock boat button on the tag to represent the pirate ship! The tag has a pocket so you can store your treasures inside! 

Don't you just love the Stitched Tugboat button!!


I also got this very cool fabric skull in my PP goodie bag and had to use it, so I made a simple card to go along with the theme. Hope you are enjoying all the wonderful projects this weekend. And come back tomorrow for some more from some talented ladies that I call friends!!! 

Your next stop is Mary. You will be amazed at her project! 

A wide array of products were pulled together to work the PIRATE THEME this Month

                                                  You Make the World a Better Place.
Hello on this beautiful Wednesday! I have been so busy this summer, I have neglected my blog. I did get to play a little in my cove on Labor Day. So I wanted to share with you what I made. My sweet and talented friend Donna from Created by Donna K let me borrow a card die from her so I had to get working real fast to make some cards so I could get it back to her. I had fun whipping up cards left and right. The sentiment on the front of the card is my message to her.

HELLO!!! Well I don't know about you, but I have had a tough week. I knew what would make me feel better. So I went to the scrap cove and worked on my Pinque Peacock project. And YES, I felt so much better when I got this beauty finished. 

I made a notebook 4 x 6 in size. I covered it in Zebra paper, I figured it would go with my CRAZY week that I had. My precious friend Donna K had gave me some paper stacks and this big Tag was in the stack and I loved the quirky little flowers on it. I glittered them up a little, added some 3 Girl Jam ribbon around it, and added the BEAUTIFUL Pinque Peacock stick pin from the new July release Disney theme. It had all the colors of my flowers on that one bead and I thought it would go perfect. Added me a little 3D butterfly on top. 

Be sure to go shopping at Pinque Peacock and get your Stick pins!!

JULY New Release
"When You Wish Upon A Star"

BLOG HOP Day #2

WELCOME TO DAY #2 OF OUR BLOG HOP...

We hope you have enjoyed your time as you have hopped with us these past two days and that you feel inspired to create after visiting the Talented Pinquettes' Blogs! This hop has showcased projects that have been created using some of the JULY NEW RELEASE Products from Pinque Peacock.

Today I have made a Disney themed Layout and showcased the Pinque Peacock button and swirl flower on my page. My nephew went to Disney and had a blast. If only I could get my sister to hurry up and print out the pictures. I decided while I'm waiting on her, I would go ahead a create a two page spread. He loved the parade with all the fireworks, so I based the pages on that.

 Here you can see the button on the right inside the firework

 Here I used the swirl flower
