MAY CRAFT KIT CLUB... by PINQUETTE Kimberly

Hello everyone, today is my day to show you some
crafty goodness from Pinque Peacock.
This month I was provided the May Craft Kit. I love the pieces I received
and went right to thinking, "What can I do with this fun product".
 

I made a couple of items this month, however, if you want to see
the second item, you will have to visit my blog.

The first item I made was a charm bracelet. I have been wanting to make a charm bracelet for the longest time, so I was really excited to get this.


I received four heart charms, so I spaced three of them evenly from the center, then added the fourth one near the clasp of the charm. the one near the clasp is stamped with the words, "handmade with love".

 


However, I wanted something different, so used a small piece of purple ribbon and weaved it through the bracelet. Near the ends of the bracelet I added two silver beads. I thought this added quite a bit to the bracelet. My biggest problem now is how to get the ribbon to stay. I have added some Glossy Accents to the ends in hopes this will help protect the knot.


 
I hope you will take some time to go to the Pinque Peacock shop and purchase your own Craft Kit. I know you will not be disappointed.

How are all of our Pretty Little Peacocks Today?

Hey Everyone! I hope you all had a fun and safe holiday weekend, and hopefully got to spend time with family and friends. I first want to take a moment and honor all the people who have fought or are currently fighting for our country, because that is what Memorial day is truly about. I pray that all the soldiers over there return home safely to their families!

Now to my post today…I made my tag for the Pinque Peacock Challenge Blog which you should all check out HERE and you can enter as well to win some very nice goodies :). Well the challenge this month has been altered tags and I decided to play around a lot with mine.

  Here is my Altered tag that I made...

I had this amazingly awesome Peacock Fabric Splendid Swirl that is from the Pinque Peacock Shop.
The gold Tissue Paper and Sticky Gems are also a wonderful product I ordered through the Shop.

 Hello Crafty Peeps!!!
Hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend?!?!
Today I want to share with you a fun project I did for a cousin of mine...
she has no idea what it looks like till its debuet today. She is a HUGE Disney fan and
while on her last trip with her daughter's and mother, I asked her to take some head
shots for me. When PINQUE PEACOCK came out with these Disney Themed Vintage Mickie and Minnie Mouse Fabric Covered Buttons she was the first one I thought of... Along with the WONDERFUL Pinque Peacock products I used SVG Cutting files from Paper Piecings by Nikki and
Scraptastical Kreations that I cut out on my CAMEO... and just a tone of fun
embellishments I had been collecting just for a project like this! Hope she and
her family enjoy this for many years to come... I still have to put it in the 12x12 frame I have for it, but have some altering I want to do on it as well..... ENJOY!!!!





 
Thanks so much for stopping by
I hope you enjoyed my fun project as much as I did ...
now hurry on over to the PINQUE PEACOCK shop to order yourself
some of these cute Fabric Covered Buttons to create with!!!... and check out
the "FABRIC OPTIONS" album to customize your own buttons!!!

TUTORIAL: A panal card using a Layered Garden Beauty... by PINQUETTE Rebecca

Hi Everybody! 
Today I'm here for another tutorial to make this lovely card!




What you Need:
(1) Double sided designer paper, 5.5 x 12 inches
(2) Pinque Peacock large Layered Garden Beauty flower to coordinate with your paper
(3) Sheet of coordinating card stock, 5.25 x 3.75 inches
(4) Sheet of white card stock, 5 x 3.5 inches
(5) Coordinating twine about 16"
(6) Decorative or Sentiment rubber stamps and ink to decorate or the inside of the card



Tools:
- Adhesive (double stick tape, glue gun, glue dots)
- Cutting Board
- Score Board

- Ruler
- Round punch and scrap of card stock (the punch I used was 1.75 ")


STEP 1:
Take the decorative paper and score it at 2", 4", 8", and 10". This will give you 4 panels two inches wide, and a center panel that is 4" wide. Fold back and forth to loosen. Open back up flat.




STEP 2:
Measure 2.75 inches from the bottom of each side of the designer paper along the 5.5" side. Mark it with a pencil. With a ruler, draw a straight line from the mark you made to the top edge at the 2nd score line. This will give you two diagonal lines - one on each side of the designer paper


Here's a picture to give you a visual…


STEP 3:
Cut along the diagonal lines you just made. Reserve the cut pieces (You are going to use them!)




STEP 4:
Decorate the white card stock (5 x 3.5") as desired. Layer it atop the coordinating card stock. Adhere this to the center of section of the designer paper. Add the twine. Phew. That was a big step.



STEP 5:
Flip the designer paper over as in the photo from STEP 3 above. Adhere to the front and bottom of the card You will take the piece from the cut made on the opposite side. (See in above photograph from Step 4.)

STEP 6:
Fold the card as shown in the photograph from Step 4.

STEP 7:
Take the scrap of white card stock and punch a circle with the punch. You are going to adhere this circle to the back of the Layered Garden Beauty to give it a little more stability before attaching to the card.





STEP 8:
Adhere the flower 1/2 way onto the front left side of the card…like this:


STEP 9:
Enjoy your creation immensely. THIS is the most important step.

And there you have it. Now, here's a wee better photo showing it open.
If you visit my blog, I have a couple different ones on display!


 
Hope you are having a wonderful and memorial day!
(I know, corny play on words, but I couldn't help myself)

Now Go Make Something Beautiful - Maybe This - Then, give it to someone to bring a smile to their face.
Cheers!

Happy Thursday, hope your week is going great so far and tomorrow is Friday!
Weekends are always fun, long weekends are the best!!

Today is my day on the blog and I always look forward to it. Wish I could do more fun crafts, but I've been so busy lately with the house (inside and out). So much to do and so little time in a day.

So my project for today is a card, thought the saying was cute. I will more than likely save it for my mom's birthday in September. lol I used a Large Fabric Covered Button and a beautiful Pearl Stick-Pin, check out all the Pinque Peacock items on HERE.

~~**WHOOP WHOOP**~~
Guess who's here... It's PINQUETTE Laura!!!


♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Hi It's Laura here from sunny Ontario! (finally)
Today I made a retirement card for you.
It's a screen card.
I haven't done the sentiment yet
as I want something special but I havne't
found just the right one yet.
I used a yellow gingham splendid swirl.
(they come in two sizes and lots of fabrics!)


It is very plain but I was looking for rustic.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
 
The back side of the card was embossed then
white washed then stamped.


The front was modge podged with a napkin
(which you can't see at all) and then all kinds
of mediums on it.. finally stamped.
I love these screen cards but I think I
will make the next one shorter.
Hope you like my card and if
you have any ideas for sentiments for this card
come and see me at the my blog
www.lauraleesdream.blogspot.com

Thank you PINQUETTE Laura, this screen card is AWESOME!!
