Hey there, I'd like to share a fun notebook I re-covered.
  It's a simple note book I bought from The Dollar Tree!
 The Image is by Unity, it was a freebie she offered during CHA last week.
 
 

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 
I used alcohol to spray the butterflies and crochet flowers
then dripped reinkers on them and allowed them to dry
over night. I added some red bling to the image and to the pen.
 
 
Then to make it extra special, I added a beautiful PINQUE PEACOCK 
Pearl Beaded Stick Pin. It adds a bit of elegance I think.
Thanks for stopping by, head over to my blog if you want to see more.

PINQUETTE Kimberly is in the house today sharing
her project she did with some COOL stuff she got while at CHA!!!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Hello everyone, today is my day to post for the wonderful Pinque Peacocks. I just love this group and all the ladies here. I love the products that we get to play with and use for our projects. It is always such a hard choice for me to decide which products I want to use and when. If you have not already checked out the products, you need to strut your stuff on over to the Pinque Peacock Facebook site as soon as possible.

Last week was a busy week for me as I spent the week at the CHA (Craft and Hobby Association) Convention. I learned so many things it is impossible to put it into words, or even begin to tell you how much fun I had.

While at CHA, I experienced a lot of demo’s and even got some free products. One of those free products I received was the Sizzix Birds and Trees Framelits and Stamp Set.
This is the set I used to create this adorable“You Are Tweet” card. However, what makes this card really pop are the Pinque Peacock products I added to it. Isn’t that Spendid Swirl flower just the “tweetest” flower you ever saw? In addition, who would sing beautiful music to get their hands on the gorgeous beaded pearl stickpins?

Check out more of my card on my blog at KP Kre8tions Bringing Memories to Life  to see how I made this cute card.

That girl with the ponytail…she just drives me insane!... by PINQUETTE Lisa

PINQUETTE Lisa in the house with a
VERY creative project she has made!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

…old school baby…..

 

 



Straighten the hair, curl the hair, crimp the hair, blow out the hair….we ALL go to the ponytail when we can get what we want.  Let’s make it stylish and sexy, shall we?  Let’s upscycle one of those much hated slapbands, shall we?  Let’s cover it with our fabric of choice (mine is denim).  It’s so easy to do that.  
 
Then, let’s take our ponytail….and slap the hell out of that slapband around it.  When it places, find your middle point….(It will not be the middle point on the band when straight).  I placed a Pinque Peacock denim fabric popper in the middle, and placed, on each side, a coffee filter fabric rose and a glitter blast!  When “slapped” this looks awesome….try it…you’ll like it!

Happy Crafting and enjoy that Peacock fun!

Lisa

~~**WHOOP WHOOP**~~
PINQUETTE Shelley is here to share a
storage solution she has made for herself!!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 
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 fabric 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!!!

"From Trash To Treasure"... by PINQUETTE Susie

PINQUETTE Susie.... and her
awesome  too cool trash to treasure
project she has created!!!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I'm always excited when it's my turn to post on the Pinque Peacock Blog, but again time goes by so quickly that I'm caught unprepared! Being the crafter that I am, I always have so many projects going at once that I can run into my craft room and finish one up really fast! lol

A few months ago I was in the backyard on wasp patron and went around the side of the house where I never go (afraid a critter may get me) and found this old beat up pot half buried in the dirt. Of course I dug it up to check it out. Looked like it had been there for years and don't know how I'd never seen it before. It was rusty and banged up, but I loved it! Asked hubby if it was his and if I could have it, of course he said yes. So got out a mallet and tried to pound out some of the dents, got out the steel wool to sand off the rust. I did think about leaving it like that, but wasn't sure yet. Next time I went to the hardware store I was checking out cans of paint and found something by Krylon called Silver Hammered Finish and thought it would be perfect. I wanted it to look beat up, but 'pretty' at the same time.

Here is the pot before I painted it, but didn't think to take a photo before I beat it and sanded it.



So it sat on one of my craft tables after I painted it until I decided what to do with it. I had read somewhere about using toilet paper rolls to organize stuff and thought I could do that!! So I started saving toilet paper rolls and putting them in my pot until it had enough. Then I started adding treasures inside all the toilet paper rolls (paint brushes, foam brushes, etc.)

I love the Pinque Peacock fabric covered buttons (I actually love everything PP) that I had to use one for my pot. Of course I am a ribbon/lace junkie too, so I used one of my favorite pieces of lace and threaded some pretty red ribbon through it. For some reason I couldn't make a bow to save my life today, but after like 5 trys I gave up and figured the pretty checked button would cover up the weirdness of it!

So here is my pot all prettied up!! Tried to get a picture without the glare, but it just wasn't happening! lol


Here is a close-up of the button (ignore the bow). hehehe Isn't the lace beautiful??


Thank you so much for checking out my project

PINQUETTE BIRTHDAY IN THE HOUSE...
we have another Bithday here at PINQUE PEACOCK...
and the birthday girl, Robin is here to share
her project to herself with all of us!!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥



♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 
Happy birthday to me...happy birthday to me.. lol!!!
It's my birthday and I'll craft if I want to :D
Yep today is my birthday and I made myself a little something hehe.

The bottom is open on this so I figured I could hide my candy under this and no one will be the wiser!! Around here you have to be creative in order to keep your goodies :)

Good morning and welcome to Pinque Peacock. I hope you are having a great day and thank you for taking the time to stop by and check out my DT post. I have said this before, but I really do LOVE the fabric covered buttons from Pinque Peacock. They are so versatile and you can do so much with them. I decided to make myself a present hehe... I made a bow for the top of it and used the Pinque Peacock purple chevron fabric covered button for the center of the bow. This is actually the present lantern from the sil store. But, I just added some white paper to cover up the openings so that you couldn't see through it :) I then used my MS punch to make the ribbon for the sides and added the bow and button on top with a little happy birthday tag.
 
 
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 
Here is a close up of the oh so cute button on top of the bow.
How cute is that!!

Donna K here with a BIG, BEAUTIFUL Hello from Eastern, NC!
 
 
I've created a greeting card for my post today using a variety of products.
The feature is the big chunky Fabric Covered Button from Pinque Peacock.
Chevron fabric...of course, because chevrons are the rage these days.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 


That button is bright..and it's purple and it's Fabulous, don't you agree?

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 

 
I used the designer paper left overs to line the inside of my card and also my envelope.
I think this card will make someone's day...at least I hope so!
Stop by my blog to read more about the deets on this card and be sure to stop by Pinque Peacock on Facebook and take a peek at what's new... Jessica is always cooking up something amazing.

"For Some Special Folks"... by PINQUETTE Janet

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Today we have an adorable and very special
project from PINQUETTE Janet

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 
Janet R. here with a very special project today!
I work with Seniors and Disabled in a lunch setting and I try to celebrate special days with them. One of the clients is approaching a 90th birthday! I used a Sizzix die to cut my flower, inked the edges, added a banner piece and a small banner that says Wish Big! At 90 I think she deserves everything she wishes for! Added a blingy dragonfly and of course the center is a cute Fabric Covered Button from the Pinque Peacock. The flower pattern just gives this 3-D flower more layers I think!
Today will be my last post for the Pinque Peacock, but I'll be following all the design team and their projects! Due to some health problems I feel I can't give the attention Pinque Peacock deserves and with the new design team call, I'm sure there will be some great new ideas and projects to enjoy.
Check out my blog for more details or to just keep in touch!
 
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Thank you Janet, for sharing your adorable creation!!
We'll sure miss you here at PINQUE PEACOCK...
we wish you all the best!

PINQUETTE and BIRTHDAY GIRL Marji
is in the house with us today sharing
not only her special day with us,
but her adorable project too!!!



♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I'm happy to share this with you today, for two reasons, I LOVE how this turned out AND it's my Birthday!!
My best friend shared this project with me and helped me make it.
She is a Stampin Up demonstrator and ordered me 7 or 8 packs of paper on clearance so I had lots to choose from.

I love this project for several reasons, for us paper hoarders out there, this is a great way to hang on to that paper we just love!! AND a great way to hang on to embellishments we love too! This way you use your stuff and get to keep it too on a beautiful display!
 
 
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 
So, moving on, you can see I used my favorite Pinque Peacock Fabric Poppers, I love that little rose bud fabric and have been holding on to them not wanting to let them go. As well as this TH bird cage, when I took the class from him we used one on one of the necklaces we made and I bought one after the class because it's so cool.
 
 
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
More TH goodies and another beautiful Layered Garden Beauty. I glued all the embellishments on with E6000, you can see it in the first photo. Aren't those papers beautiful?!
 

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 
Thanks so much for stopping by to visit me on my birthday! I love you all so much!!
If you want to see more and see how I did this head over to my blog.
If you have any questions feel free to ask :)

PINQUETTE Paula is sharing a CA-UTE
notebook she has created!!!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Hello!!!...
Well I don't know about you, but I have had a tough week.
I knew what would make me feel better. So I went to the
scrap cove and worked on my Pinque Peacock project.
And YES, I felt so much better when I got this beauty finished.
I made a notebook 4 x 6 in size. I covered it in Zebra
paper, I figured it would go with my CRAZY week that
I had. My precious friend Donna K had gave me some
paper stacks and this big Tag was in the stack and I
loved the quirky little flowers on it. I glittered them up
a little, added some 3 Girl Jam ribbon around it, and
added the BEAUTIFUL Pinque Peacock stick pin
from the new July release Disney theme. It had all
the colors of my flowers on that one bead and I
thought it would go perfect. Added me a little
3D butterfly on top. Be sure to go shopping at
Pinque Peacock and get your Stick pins!!
