I'm so glad you could join us for another Peachy Keen Challenge!
WOW you all really did some amazing things with our 3-D Potluck Challenge last week.
Such cute and creative ways to display food and food related items for a potluck celebration! Thank you to everyone who played along. We will get to our winners in just a bit, but first, I want to remind you that we still have a goal to switch this challenge over to the new website by the first of October.
REMINDER: The plan is for this to be our last week to post on this blog, and we would love for you to head over to the new website this week and share your challenge projects with us there
just so you'll see how playing along in the forum where we will be from now on.
All you need to do is go to the new website www.peachykeenstamps.com, and click on the "Community" tab. Once you're there, click on the Challenges link, and you will see the most current challenge at the top of the challenge page. Simply reply with a comment that includes a link to your blog or gallery post, but please copy and paste the actual URL of where your entry can be found. That's it! We'll follow the links to visit your blog or gallery to choose our Top 3 and Top Peach.
So, now that you've been updated with all the above info, let's get to our challenge for this week, and then our winners from last week!!
PKC 13-39 :: Just Cards :: Can I Have That Recipe?

Create a card using the theme of Recipe. Ever been invited to a shower that asks you to include a recipe for the bride-to-be? Maybe a friend or loved one is moving to a new home and could use a welcoming gift of a dish and it's recipe? Use your creativity to somehow include a recipe with your card.

You don't need our stamps to play along, but only entries using Peachy Keen Stamps can earn Top Peach!
Sorry, any entry that does not meet the guidelines for this challenge will be automatically removed without notice.
Each week, our designers create eye-catching, beautiful samples for ideas and launching points for your own design. Check out how our DT interpreted this week's challenge:
The time for a new challenge has come, but before we get to the new challenge this week I want to mention that we are posting this challenge on our new website, and we'd love it if you would join us there. We'll be posting here for a couple more weeks, just to give you time to make the move, but after that, we'll be at our new all inclusive site full time.
Just go to www.peachykeenstamps.com, and look for us in the Community tab under challenges.
The set up will be a little different, but we'll still bring you your favorite challenges to play along with as always. We're REALLY excited about it, and we hope you will love it too!!
Now that you've got that exciting info, let's see what's up with this week's challenge.
Create a 3D object of your choice following the theme Potluck. Ever gone to a potluck and had no clue what a dish might be? Here is your chance to make an item to give a heads up of what your dish is. It could be toppers, placards, a banner, or anything else that sparks your creativity! Or maybe you have an awesome way to display your dish, that would work too. Use your amazing creativity to make a run with this challenge!!
Design must be new
Design must be 3-Dimensional and follow the guidelines above.

Boy has it ever been a busy week at Peachy Keen Stamps!
As many of you know, we've been in the process of switching over to a new all inclusive website, and we've hit a few bumps along the way. Please rest assured that we have been working double over time to get everything up and running in a timely manner, and as I said, it's been a bumpy endeavor at times. We know that all this hard work is going to be worth it and we just want to make sure we get it right! We want to be able to bring you a fabulous, user friendly site where you can enjoy everything PKS related in one place. That's the plan anyway! We're still working on some areas of the site, but we will DEFINITELY let you know when EVERYTHING is running like we intend. Feel free to drop by and look around, but do take note that you will need to create a new Log In for the new site, as your old Log In information will NOT transfer over. That should do it, though. Once you have that, you'll be good to go! Here's a link to the new website.
You'll notice when you get there that Kathy and Dave have a special little surprise for you to thank you for your patience with us this week. Enjoy 25% off ALL stamps on the website through the end of this month!! We have the best customers ever!!!
It was so exciting to see what each of you came up with for our Anything Goes Challenge, and there were truly some creative things happening. It's always fun for us to see what YOU'RE creating with your PKS stamps. Before we get to our winners from last week, let's see what's on tap for this week!
