Birthday Wishes for Somebuggy to love ☺

Hiya! My friend Drew asked me to make his wife a birthday card, and here it is. I can share it now because yesterday was her birthday and she got her card. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TERESA! ☺ I know it pretty much looks like a Valentine's day card, but after I saw what he wanted me to write inside, I HAD to make it super "lovey"!!! I cut the "lovebug" and the birthday hat from my Simply Charmed cricut cartridge. I ADORE this cartridge! Just too cute!

I stamped the faces with the Christmas Character Face Assortment from PeachyKeenStamps.com. Yep, Christmas faces on a lovebug and birthday hat! The birthday wishes stamp is from PaperTreyInk.com and the sombuggy to love is from My Pink Stamper. I hope you're having a GREAT day! ☺

Hog Wild

Hi Ya'll! ☺ For today's card I used the Country Life cricut cartridge. It has some super cute images on it, and when I saw these pigs I knew they NEEDED PeachyKeen faces! So, I used the Critter Faces Small for their lil' faces. And I decided the sun needed a face too! I used the Cutie Pie Face Assortment for it. 

The "Hog Wild" sentiment is from the Punny-licious set by My Pink Stamper. I hope you like my lil' card for today.  Hope you're happier than a hog in mud!

Dino-Mite!

Hey there guys and gals! I think you're all super groovy in a far out way! ☻For today's card I used the Hippie Surfer Van die from The Scrapping Cottage. It actually has super cute flowers and a surfboard too, but I chose not to use those this time. I wanted my van to be more 70's rather than surfery. Ya dig? I just kept this card really basic, but I just ♥ that cute little van!

I used silver glittery glazed brads for the hubcaps. I hope you're have a great day...and that ain't no jive turkey! ☺☺☺

☻Nikki☻

Whooooooo loves you?

Hello! I have been DYING to post this card for a long time! I made this for my Uncle to give to my Aunt for her birthday and her birthday has come and gone, so I can post it now! ☺ Actually her birthday and my husband's were both on Sunday. I would post my hubby's card, but there was an unfortunate diet coke explosion on our road trip over the weekend...and, well, the card kinda bit the dust! LOL...But I digress...back to this card! I was able to make it really bulky because my Nana drove the card back to Illinois with her so it could be hand delivered. I used my fiskars scalloped border punch to punch a strip of paper. I then scored in between all the scallops and did an accordion fold with the strip. Then I busted out the hot glue gun and put glue in the center to make my very own medallion. I think it turned out pretty darn cool! ☺

I cut the owl from the Hoot 'n' Holler cricut lite cartridge. I stamped his hootin' adorable face with the Critter Faces Small from PeachyKeenStamps.com. Well, I hope you like my card...It's actually one of my favorite cards EVER!

PeachyKeen Challenge # 35

Hello! It's challenge time again. For this challenge we have a sketch and a color combo to follow. I have to admit that I goofed and used orange rather than apricot. OOPS! We all make mistakes, right?! ☺ I flipped the sketch vertically for my card, and here it is.................

For my card I used the Cute Kitties stamp set. I just LOVE that set! I stamped the paw prints from the set with versamark ink and then used ultra fine clear embossing powder to heat emboss my own patterned paper.

I hope you will hop over to the Challenge Blog and play along with us! There will be one judged winner this time and that lucky person will  get a $30 gift certificate to PeachyKeenStamps.com. ☺

Happy Stamping!

♥ Nikki ♥

p.s. I used my FAV circle and scalloped circle from Winter Woodland. ☺

p.p.s. The sentiment and all paper are from PaperTreyInk.com

2nd Grade

Hello! Here is another back to school card for my friend Trina's lil' guy Hunter. Hi Hunter! ☺ Oh, wait, don't look! Just a super simple card designed in my gypsy while watching t.v. {Big Brother I think} ☺ Nothin' much going on here except for my prerequisite faux stitching.

The "2nd grade" sign is from Locker Talk and the little boy is from Everyday Paper Dolls. His face is from the Everyday Character Face Assortment by PeachyKeenStamps.com. Have a cricut tastical day! ☺

♥ Nikki ♥

Get WHALE soon

Yep, that's a pink whale alright! ☺ I thought this was a cute idea for the breast cancer fundraiser! Just a super duper simple card, but I think she's a cute lil' gal! Her sweet face is stamped with the Critter Faces Large set from, of course, PeachyKeenStamps.com. She is whaley cute. HAHAHA

The solid cardstock is from PaperTreyInk.com, and the patterned paper is from the Itsy Bitsy Baby Girl stack by K and Company. Thanks for stopping by!

♥ Nikki ♥

where flowers bloom, so does hope

Hiya peeps! Here is another card that I will be donating to my friend's breast cancer fundraising event. I used Simply Charmed for the flower, and it would have been cute if I had just used the face the cartridge cuts...but it is ADORABLE with the addition of the super cute PeachyKeen face! ☺ This face is from the Basic Paper Doll Face Assortment.

Sorry for the quick posting, but I gotta get back to my card assembly line! ☺ Hey, these cards aren't going to make themselves! hahahahahah

HAVE A GLORIOUS DAY!!!

♥ Nikki ♥

Think Pink *Rock Princess*

Hellllooooooo! Today was an AWESOME mail day!!!! I got Rock Princess, Winter Frolic, Country Life, October 31st, and Pumpkin Carving. So, here is my first card with Rock Princess. ☺ I am making up a few sets of different cards to donate to my friend Gail for her breast cancer fundraising event she has every year. I just ADORE this cute converse shoe!!! AHHH SO CUTE!!!! I thought it would be a great encouragement card for someone who is doing a Relay for Life walk. I hope you like it as much as I do! ☺

♥ Nikki ♥

i love moo

Today is my day to post over on the Cottage Blog. For this card I used the super cute Cow Peeker die and stamp set. I made her a diva cow. ☺

Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you're having a great day! I should be receiving 3 of the newest cricut cartridges tomorrow, so stay tuned! ☺

♥ Nikki ♥

Kindergarten Card...and Coloring page ☺

Hello all! The UPS man brought me the new cricut cartridge called Simply Charmed yesterday and boy is it CUTE! My friend Trina's lil guy is starting kindergarten soon, so I made this card for him. ☺ The crayons are from Simply Charmed and the kindergarten sign is from the Locker Talk cartridge.

I popped up the top layer to the crayon box and also did two score lines to make like a little flap. Just kept this one pretty simple, but I bet lil' Mason will get a kick out of it! Geez I remember being TERRIFIED on my first day of kindergarten, and the pictures I have are solid proof of my memory! LOL

Have a GREAT day! I'm off to PLAY! ☺

♥ Nikki ♥

And PLAY I did! I picked up some cricut markers a while back and decided to give them a go. So, I designed a coloring page in my gypsy to go with the kindergarten card. I bet Mason will enjoy coloring it in! ☺

The faces I used are from the Fun Kiddie Face Assortment from PeachyKeenStamps. I just ADORE these sweet little faces!

Ok, bye again! hehehehehe

Sandpaper kisses ☺

Hi everyone! Here's just a quick card made with the Meow cartridge. LOVE this cartridge! I used my gypsy to hide their faces so they could have cutie patootie PeachyKeen faces. I used the Critter Faces Medium set.

Sentiment stamp is from my stash. Thanks for stopping by! Have a nice day!

♥ Nikki ♥

PeachyKeen Challenge 34

Hello! It's challenge time again, and we have a sketch for you to follow this time! ☺ I used the Cute Kitties set for my card. I colored her to look just like my Jinxy girl with her white "socks" and all. ☺ I swear it looks better in person! It just wouldn't photograph well for some reason!

Side view ☺ and here's the sketch....

I sure hope you will pop over to the Challenge Blog and play along with us! There will be one judged winner, and one drawn at random! So you have 2 chances to win....Judged winner will win Happy Birthday Kids...and the random winner will get Trick or Treat Ghost....OMG....GASP!!! I don't have either one of those! LOL guess I'm gonna go shopping! ☺

Happy Stamping!!!

♥ Nikki ♥
