For my project today, I created a layout!


I used a super cute file from Scrapping Bug Designs called I'm Walking On Sunshine. Here is the link to this adorable file: Walking On Sunshine 
Here is a close up of 2 of the cuts available in the file. When I did the cuts I did not change the sizes at all.
I did use a kraft colored cardstock and did a second cut a little larger then layered the cuts and out lined it with a faux stitching using a white gel pen.
 Now here is a close up of my dragonfly. To make it I used a beautiful Pinque Peacock Pearl Pin and 2 of the new colors of Trendy Twine that are available right now. I used Lime Orangesicle and Lime Grapesicle. I made a bow using both colors of twine and cut a small piece to tie it together in the center I pulled both ends of that piece up to create the antennas. I then wrapped the end of the beautiful pin with Lime Grapesicle and glued the pin to the top of my Trendy Twine bow. I added 2 drops of lime liquid pearls to the top of the antennas to hold them down. Now here are your links to these great products:

Storage that has Been Pinqued

Hi everyone! Today is my day to post for Pinque Peacock. This time I chose to do a storage solution.
Here is the picture of the finished item.

I started with the zebra hat box which was a great 3.00 find! I added 2 trims. The velvet Pink and the black rose and I think they are both Maya Road. I added a Tim Holtz Clip in Bronze and used the trusty old glue gun to attach it to my box. I then added a Farm Fresh covered button to the top of the clip.
Then I added a Layered Garden Beauty and the Butterfly Stick Pin. Then I added my ultimate Fav Pinque Peacock Item a Elegant Floral in Cherry Lipstick. You can use the clip to label the box so you know what is inside. Because it is a clip you can change the label anytime! Want to see what is inside?
Yes a whole lot of beautiful Pinque Peacock Blooms

Now here is a close up of the items used
  
Thank-you for stopping by today! Be sure to take a peek in the shop!!!

Cheery Happy Birthday Card

Hi, I made a little card today that I wanted to share with you! I used 2 fabulous
products on this card that I will share links to also :)
Here is the card:

Unfortunately as usual I am behind the times in using 1 of my cut files and the puppy is no longer available
but Melissa at KaDoodle Bug Designs has so many more adorable files available
so be sure to check out her shop. Here is the link:

The base of the card itself is available in the Silhouette Store. and is a layered Scalloped card.
On the top scallop I threaded 3 Girl Jam ribbon in Cherry Lipstick.
This ribbon is amazing and I can't get enough of it!! Here is a link to 3 Girl Jam:
The cut file I loved as is and didn't add my usual bling. I did faux stitch it with a white gel pen and did the same to the card base. This card was so easy to do with the awesome cut file and fab ribbon!!! The paper is BoBunny Double Dot

You should have come from Pinque Peacock if you didn't please start there.
Now before we get to the Great hop prize here is the picture of my Hop project!

I chose to do a wedding layout that is just waiting for my nieces wedding picture.
I of course started with my Pinque Peacock!!!

 We have 2 Fabric Splendid Swirls one in Black with the red polka dots and 1 pure white! Then we have that cute polka dot fabric Covered Button and then we pull it all together with a fabulous
Beaded Stick Pin. Now who couldn't build a project around all of this fabulous product!!!
Then I found this great wedding dress print and cut from Jessica weible illustrations. It was a freebie but is still available on her site!! The trims I used are loose trims I had on hand and I have no idea which companies they may be from. The small roses and the flourish are Prima. The ribbon around the waist of the gown is 3 girl jam. The 3 girl jam ribbon is so easy to work with I love it!
I embossed the gown and photo mat with a Cricut Cuttle Bug Folder it is a Anna Griffin design that is called Poppy. It is a large folder and I love it. I inked the edges of the gown with a black ink pad then again in silver. Now this is our little secret because I told the Queen Peacock that no stickles were involved... totally forgot I used it on the hanger... What can I say there has to be a crazy stickles girl in every group right :)
