Peachy Keen Blog Hop - Episode~83

Good Morning and Welcome to another SPOOKTACULAR Peachy Keen Blog Hop!! If you just arrived here from Janice's blog, then you are hopping in the right direction!;) WOW, this is my FAVORITE blog hop EVER! Today is the BIG day for you to FINALLY feast your eyes on these GORGEOUS NEW Halloween Stamps! The Peachy Queen has done it again! Let's get right down to business! I wanted to make a project for EVERY SINGLE image, but unfortunately, Time was NOT on my side! So for today, I have 2 cards for you! The 1st card is a Tri-fold card I designed using my Gypsy Girl and the stamp set I used for this one is

 "Halloween Sweet Folks"! AND for the 2nd card is the "Reveal" of my Sneak Peek from Saturday! Isn't it just TOO ADORABLE!! I REALLY LOVE how my card turned out! I am ESPECIALLY proud of myself that I actually used my little "Pixie" sewing machine FINALLY!;)

I wasn't satisfied w/how my card came out so I landed up using my sewing machine to sew each of the panels on the front of the card!

The "REVEAL" of my Peachy Keen "Sneak Peek"!

Winner of Crikit Pens & another Pen Tutorial - Episode~82

Hello My Creative Friends! I hope everybody had a GREAT weekend! I've had several questions on what else can be done w/these AMAZING pens! Well, I decided to show you in my video just how you can ALSO make your own background paper w/them! For my CUTE ghosts, I cut them out using my Mini Monsters cart AND the background was ALSO drawn w/the same cart! I used 3 different face stamps for my ghosts and they were:

"Monster Mash Face Asst.",  "Make a Monster Face Asst." and "Pumpkin Faces"!

ALSO, if you were one of the many people who tried to order these pens last week, the "ADDITON" coupon code was not working properly! So I recieved an email from Crikits.com letting me know for You to use the link below and that will take you to a page where you can add the free pens to your cart! Then you can click on the "products" link and add whatever other pen sets you want into your cart. They will not send any orders that only contain the free pens. Here is the link:   http://www.asecurecart.net/server/orderform.aspx/cri-kits?ID=additon

I hope you enjoy my video & CONGRATS to the winner!;)

I FIXED my page!! LOL...... I had it say "Trick or Trick" at first until my friend Julie let me know! lol......

See you back here tomorrow for the BEST PEACHY KEEN BLOG HOP EVER!;) Have a GREAT night everyone!;)
