Hi Peachy friends!! If you've come from Heidi's blog then your in the right place. I'm so excited to take part in the Peachy Keen Spring Blog hop!!

So please hop along today with us and don't forget to come back to hop on the 25th for more Peachy Keen Stamp creations.





Here is my spring creation:

Click on the picture for a larger view.


I used a ton of Peachy Keen Stamps on my project. What ones didn't I used? haha!! I love combining sets to bring out my ultimate vision.

Plus, I used a ton of my scraps to paper piecing these adorable Peachy Keen images. I love getting rid of scraps!

For my letters, I purchased the Hobby Lobby Chip Decor' letters. I then cut out the cover paper using Cricut's Chip Decor' and More cartridge @ 8 inches. Each letter I inked on the sides with color box cat eye inks.


On the S, I used a cut file called Think Spring by Kristi W. Designs. The sun comes from the Cricut Doodlecharm cartridge @ 2.5 inches.

S
PK Stamps Used:


The flower stem was cut from Cricut's Create a Critter @ 3.5 inches.

P
PK Stamps Used:

All were from Peachy Keen stamps. Except the clouds I paper pieced and the puddle I cut out freehand. The umbrella handle was cut from Cricut's April Showers Cartridge.
