Peachy Keen Stamps :: Sketch Challenge 55

Good Morning Peachies! I hope the sun is shining where you are today - if NOT, I will send some to you because we finally have some here in NE Wisconsin! Hooray!

One thing I LOVE about summer is all the out-of-state visitors we get. Today, my aunt, uncle and cousin are visiting from Massachusetts. My aunt is the one who introduced me to stamping at a VERY young age (think preschool)! So I am super excited to have a "live-in" stamping buddy for the next TWO whole weeks! Hmmm think I can get her hooked on PKS? :)

Let's Face it Friday - Old School

Good Morning everyone! Thanks for joining us for another Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge! I think you're *really* going to love this one! I had a blast looking at our design team's creations!

Here in the U.S., Independence Day is right around the corner, and seeing everyone's Patriotic Inspiration on our last challenge was AMAZING! Loved, loved, loved all the creations! Our random WINNER of the Sampler Face Pack and our new Skunk stamp is.....

#15 - Megan!
(EDIT: The entry # was corrected. We had the correct winner just hand-keyed the wrong number! So sorry about that! We've opted to provide both #9 Victorias and #15 Megan with the gift certificate.)

Congratulations, Megan! Please email me with all your shipping deets -

angelica {at} peachykeenstamps {dot} com so I can get your prize off to you!
