Hello everyone, today is my day to show you some great Pinque Peacock Products. And this cute card is loaded with products you can get from the store. Fun papers, and a great fabric covered button.
I am in the process of making Easter cards and thought this cute little chick from my Cameo software would be the perfect fit for the spring colored papers. Both the pink and the green papers come from Pinque Peacock. I made a double looped bow and added a fun button to top off the card.
I hope you like it.
 
Thank you for taking the time to stop in and visit my blog.
I always love to read your comments.

Product Spotlight - with Pretty Little Peacock, Faithe W.

Hello all Pinque Peacock People!

My name is Faithe. I am a member of several design teams, a blogger/crafter, and I am super excited to be telling you about a really cool, and in my opinion, highly underrated product in this edition of Pinque Peacock's Product Spotlight: The Sponge Dabber.





I first saw the sponge dabbers at Scrapfest (a scrapbook expo in Oshawa, Ontario) a few years ago. I was at a stamping booth trying out their new line of stamps and making a Christmas tag. The lady at the booth suggested I add some pop to my project by inking the edges. I had no clue how to go about this as all that was in front of me were big ink pads.  Surely, if I tried to ink my small project it would make a huge mess right? Thankfully make and take ladies are there to help you learn new things.  So she told me to take a sponge dabber and dab it onto the ink dabber.

Then place the sponge dabber along the edges of your product. For an example, I am using a paper flower ornament that I would like to make look more distressed.




Continue doing this until all the edges of your product are covered.


Mine has more ink in some parts because I was going for a more rustic, distressed look.  It is, however, also easy to use this method to achieve clean smooth lines. 
(Here is an example of cleaner lines on a Christmas tag)

Please note, that after use of one color, you should clean your dauber well, or just buy one for each ink you intend on using it with . . . .or else this happens L :


I believe that the sponge daubers are an underrated product because they are easy to look over in a store. 

However if you get a chance I highly suggest going to the Pinque Peacock store and picking some up yourself because the possibilities are endless with use of these daubers. 
Direct Shop Link: Sponge Dabbers

One example of a use besides inking the sides of your projects is to create a cloud effect. We all know clouds appear to be light and fluffy.  In order to achieve this type of look, simply dab the dauber first on the ink pad then on your project in a random placement. Try to then go back over and layer your dabs. This creates a light and fluffy look to the clouds. Shown here I used black ink, which in turn created a storm cloud look.


You could also use your dauber to create flowers (shown here), fluffy and full trees or caterpillars all of which are perfect for spring.



So tell me, Pinque Peacock Friends, have you used this product before? 
If so, what unique ways have you used your dauber?

Hello My Crafty Friends and Happy Sunday To You All!!
I'm excited to share another Pinque Peacock project. 


Today I'm share an oh so cute mini sticky note book. This book measures 3x3. I used some chip board to create my back and front cover. I used some Tim Holtz Fired Brick distress ink the covers and paper doily. For my banner and sentiment I used My Creative Time dies and stamps.  Now for my awesome Pinque Peacock products I used the the Layered Garden Beauties felt flowers and Beaded Stick Pin. You can find the flowers HERE and the Beaded Stick Pins Here

For my post today I've made a 'Hoppy Easter' card. I couldn't find the stamp that I wanted so I decided to just write it in. My son keeps telling me I need to use my own writing on things I make, so figured why not on a card.

So for my 'Hoppy Easter' card I used only things I had on hand, still keeping to my use up what I've already got and not buy anything new. I used 3 of the 3/4' fabric covered buttons from Pinque Peacock, love the colors!


So please stop by my blog and look around, check out some of my other projects at Scrappy Randomness!

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Thank you PINQUETTE Susie for sharing your
adorable Easter Card!!!

Hello Everyone TGIF!!!
 I am excited today it is the start of Spring Break at least it will be in a few hours. I have a simple journal to share today. Princess Buttercup got invited to a Bday party and I'm thinking this might go in the present with the girls name on it.


I got this journal at Michaels on clearance a long time ago. It had a letter on the front. I covered it in some cute papers and then added a Pinque Peacock angel stick pin and splendid swirl. I ran the swirl through my sticker maker to make sure it stuck to the journal.

Have a great weekend.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Thank you PINQUETTE Jessie, You did
an AWESOME job on this... any young lady would love to have it!!!
