Stamp Scrap and Doodle Satuday

Hi Happy Saturday,
This week we have a sketch challenge for you and our sponsor this week is the wonderful Robyn's Fetish.

There are so many wonderful digital stamp there.
Here is the sketch.

I used this adorable cat called Too Kewl Kitty from Robyn's Fetish.  He reminds me of my Max.
The sentiment is from My Creative Time by Emma.

I hope you will join us over at Stamp Scarp and Doodle Saturday. This is a fun sketch and I look forward to seeing your creations.

Window Envelope Swap

Hi Everyone,
Well I am back at home after a 6 day road trip from WI to up state NY. It was a lot of fun. I went with a friend to pick up her sweet little granddaughter. She is 6 years old and just finish first grade. She was so much fun to travel with. She never wined or complained and showed so much enjoyment in everything from the sights along the road to us pushing her on the luggage cart.  On the way out, before we picked her up, my friend and I hit a couple of wonderful bead shops and some really special shops in Andes, NY.  That is the neatest little town. No cell reception but wonderful little shops. I will tell you more about that another day. Today I want to share a video I made a while ago.
I was in a Window Envelope Swap at TracysTreasures24. It was so much fun and I want to show you what I made. The charm is from the the Etsy shop of the friend I went to NY with. It is called The Wooden Hinge. Her hubby and her have some wonderful products. I hope you will check them out.
Here is what I created.


Not the best picture I took it from the video with the screen camera.

I would love to hear what you think.


Thanks for stopping and watching,

Peachy Keen Stamp Winner

Happy Saturday!
Wow it has been an exciting week. I have been reading all your wonderful comments on my phone and I can’t tell you how much they mean to me. I haven’t been able to answer all of them because I am on a road trip with a friend.  We are driving from WI to up state NY to pick up her granddaughter.  We would drive and stop at bead shops and by the time we got to a hotel at night I couldn’t keep my eyes open.  



Now the  winner of the Peachy Keen Stamp set is Jessica and her blog is Paper Deckerations 
I will be contacting you Jessica for your address so that I can send you PK 288 Skunk Cheer Up Set.  

Thanks again to everyone who visited both blogs and left a comment.  I wish I had more sets to give away. Remember to visit Peachy Keen Stamps every day because the guest DT has a set to give away. That is a new chance each week.

Thanks again and a Big Peachy Hug,

Stamp Scrap Doodle Saturday

Happy Saturday it is time for another Stamp, Scarp and Doodle Saturday Challenge!

Today we have a Photo Inspiration Challenge for you. You can use it anyway you would like.  Our sponsor is our very own Ike.  She has a wonderful digi store ike art and the winner will get to choose three free digis.

This photo may look like a real challenge but remember you can use it any way you wish. So have fun, be creative, and let those Mojos run wild.



 Here is the card I created.

I just love this digi from Ike.  I used the colors from the challenge for the bird. I added a little white feather under the ribbon. I think I created a new kind of bird. What do you think?

I can’t wait to see what the photo inspires you to create. Remember it can be a card, scrapbook page or what ever you are moved to create.

Thanks for stopping and have a wonderful weekend!
