Let's Face it Friday - Designer's Choice!

Good Morning Peachies! Hope you all had a wonderful week! We loved seeing your organization ideas using Peachy Keen faces!

The winner for our last challenge is:

The remaining Top 4 entries:

Congratulations! Please email me: angelica {at} peachykeenstamps {dot} com for your TOP 5 badge!

I received a couple of emails asking why this challenge closed a day early. From time to time, we'll choose a TOP 5 (as in our last challenge) and we close the linky a day earlier than normal so our designers have time to look over the entries and choose a winner. Each time we've had a TOP 5 we've closed a day earlier, and I'm really sorry for any confusion.

We have a guest designer for you today - Jessica from Denim Glitter Creations! Jessica has been showcasing her Peachy Keen Faces and projects all week long on our Peachy Keen blog and we're delighted to have her join us today!

Let's move onto this weeks' challenge!

THE CHALLENGE
Designer's Choice
Designer/Player's CHOICE project using your FAVORITE Peachy Keen faces!

  • Design must be new
  • Project must include Peachy Keen Faces
  • Link up before June 9th {the collection actually closes at 2:00 a.m. Pacific Time on 6/9}

Please welcome the very talented Alison of Stretch and Bubbles to our challenge this week! I just LOVE Alison's use of color and her stampin' style - I can't wait to see what else she has for us on our home blog this week! Be sure to leave her a comment all week on our blog and on her blog for a chance to win a set of our pink Round Acrylic Blocks at the end of the week! 
THE CHALLENGE
Sketch Challenge w/ A TWIST
  • Create a card based on the layout provided AND pop up a stamped image (the silhouette image is for placement only, feel free to use any stamp you wish!) 
  • Project must include basic elements AND TWIST from provided sketch
  • Link up your creation before May 17th
Today's sketch was inspired by our very own talented Lorie Souther's card here. It caught my eye as the focus was on the image and finished off nicely with just a bit of some dimension at the bottom and three small embellishments! You don't have to use buttons, feel free to use whatever embellies you love!
