$25.00 Gift Certificate to Peachy Keen Stamps!

We're going to be doing the links a little differently this time, using inlinkz.com. It will generate a thumbnail of your project as well as provide a link to your name. Please let us know if you have any trouble with the gadget. ;) Good luck everyone!

We overloaded our server!

Hi Everyone, yesterday Peachy Keen Stamps ran a sale to celebrate Green Bay's Super Bowl Win (we're located in Green Bay). We NEVER anticipated such a HUGE response to this sale and truly appreciate everyone's patience as I know it was difficult to place an order. SO.... we basically overloaded our server. Our hosting company acted quickly, and migrated us over to a dedicated server as soon as they could possibly process all the data. We are up and running on our dedicated server now and will be honoring our sale until 3 pm CST today.

We truly appreciate everyone's patience as we work to get back to normal over here and get caught up. That being said, the PKS Challenge post will be up later today, as well as the announcement of the last LFIF winner as promised. I know how frustrating it is to keep checking our blog only to see that something hasn't been posted that's been promised.

On behalf of PKS, we sincerely appreciate your business, your patience, your kindness, and your LOVE for Peachy Keen!! We're working hard to get everything entered today; please know we always work extra hard to make sure our customers and followers are first! :)

Let's Face it Friday - Altered Card Storage

Happy Friday! While I'm sure most of you are digging out from the snow and ice that covered most of our country this week, I feel like one of the lucky ones! We were in California for CHA, and coming home, had one of the only flights that weren't canceled (we flew through Minneapolis!).

I am so happy to welcome Joy of Joy's Life to our Let's Face it Friday Challenge! Joy has been doing an incredible job showing everyone how to create her fantastic projects with detailed instructions and lots of photos! Click this link to check out her posts - you don't want to miss a single one!

I know you are all anxiously awaiting the winner for the Valentine's Day Stamps! I have to apologize! With CHA and being "computer-less", I completely goofed and forgot to have our design team take a vote! So, I hope it's alright with everyone if we announce the winners a little later once everyone has voted to make it fair! Thanks for your understanding!

Ready to see what we have lined up next for you?

THE CHALLENGE

Card Storage

Create an altered container using Peachy Keen Stamps faces to store Valentines or cards you receive throughout the year. Our Design Team used mini-mailboxes from the One Spot at Target, but feel free to spruce up any container you might have around the house!

• Design must be new
• Project must include Peachy Keen Faces
• Link to Mr. Linky before February 17th

Check out these adorable altered creations!
