     Hellooooo my crafty friends! Pinquette Mary here to show you my Holiday project using the fabulous Pinque Peacock Fabric buttons. If you just came from Jessie then you are in the right place. If not then you want to start with the head Peacock HERE.With the holidays bearing down on us, I don't know about you but I always feel somewhat embarrassed whenever someone stops buy and I don't have a gift for them. That doesn't happen any more not when you have a supply of gift card holders and some PP embellishments on hand!


     This is so easy to make. I save my toilet paper rolls and just cover them with any scrap paper I have on hand. Be sure to cut your paper 1/2" larger than the height of the tp roll. This finishes off the top edge nicely.
     I use my Bind It All to punch holes in the bottom edge and then weave some cording to close it. After adding a small bell I had on hand I pulled out a fabric button from this month's holiday release and Voila a simple yet thoughtful presentation ready for a gift card, candy, $$$ or even lip gloss. The ideas are endless! I also used an eyelet to add some cording for the "handle". Your Christmas tree would look so festive filled with these beauties! Can you picture a bunch of these  adorned with Elegant Florals for a Victorian look?
     I truly hope you will try these and keep a stack on hand. Of course you will have to stock up on supplies @ Pinque Peacock Shop.

Breast Cancer Awareness Card


♥ ♥ ♥ WELCOME PRETTY LITTLE PEACOCKS ♥ ♥ ♥
Make sure to become a Follower
then Stop by the 300 Follower Giveaway
TO ENTER TODAY
     Good Morning my pretty little peacocks. Pinquette Mary here to not only show my support for Breast Cancer Awareness month but to also show you some fabulous products from Pinque Peacock Shop. Boy is time just flying by!!!
     A while back I was able to snag a wonderful digi from the Saturated Canary called "boobie love". These are the cutest images to color! You can find more of her images HERE. Even though I colored it a while ago I was just waiting for the perfect embellishments and, of course, PP products filled the missing piece.
      I started with a 5" x7" printed card stock and layered scrap pieces of card stock to match my Copic colors. The 2 main layers are cut with spellbinders large rectangles. I love to use X-Press It paper to do my coloring as it blends so well with Copic markers. This image was so much fun to color and I love the flower in her hair.    Isn't she so cute?
3 Girl Jam Ribbon
 
      I love how the 3 Girl Jam ribbon just adds the perfect feminine touch. The fabric covered button was one I received a while ago and was just the perfect finishing touch. I had to add a little bling so I used some Stickles to create some small dots. Sorry I don't have my Copic colors that I used (it's been a while, lol).
Pinque Peacock fabric Buttons

     Now be sure to head on over to the Pinque Peacock Shop HERE. You can find the most beautiful fabric buttons as well as gorgeous fabric flowers, stick pins, beads etc.
     Are you looking for some great deals on crafting supplies? How about the 3 Girls Jam ribbon used here? Well you can find them all HERE.

Nashville Hardrock Cafe-Yee Haw!

Pinque Peacock
     Hi everyone I am back!!! I hope you all had a chance to join our  A Pirate's Life Hop this past weekend. I am so blessed to be on such a talented Design Team with such creative people. Jessica is so generous with us and today I am going to show you what you can do with one of her fabulous fabric covered buttons.
 Photo: Quirky Queen Peacock wants to know . . . . .
What would you create if you won some of this "Pirate Booty"?
     My hubby and I were fortunate enough to go to a convention in Nashville Tennessee this past August and one of the places the company booked for our last night was on the waterfront . We went to BB King's, the Waterfront Saloon and the Hardrock Cafe. Since my husband will be retiring really soon we have been racking our brains as to what he should do in his retirement. I am always busy but he needs to have a Hobby. It finally dawned on him while we were eating....he should take up the guitar. I agree as long as it is acoustical, lol. So I decided to scrap at least this stop on our itinerary keeping in mind his future goal.
    
     As you can see we were surrounded by Guitars. Actually the company gave away a Kenny Chesney guitar (no Fran did not win!).
     After I had glued my pics down I had this brainstorm to add guitar strings but they didn't show up too well so I used some metallic cording instead and used this fabulous button to hold them all together. The other embellishments are from me & my Big ideas. I am so glad I hold onto my scraps. The yellow/gold cardstock was left over from some flowers I made for a custom order this Summer. Quick and easy!!!!

      That's all I have to show you today. I hope you gained a few inspirations today and that you will visit the Superb, spectacular, and ever popular Pinque Peacock Shop.
     Hope you have a great week!!!!!

September is A Pirates Life

We hope you will enjoy your time as you hop and that you feel inspired to create after visiting the Talented Pinquettes' Blogs! This hop will showcase projects that have been created using some of the Newer Products from Pinque Peacock.

     If you just came from the ever talented shipmate Paula then you are in the right place!

We are thrilled to have you joining us this month!  This release is showcasing some of the Products that have been in the shop for a short time already.  But now, the PINQUETTES get to DO THEIR THING, and show how wonderful and fun they are to work with on a variety of projects and creations.

 Our September Release will focus on the theme: "A PIRATES LIFE".... Arrr!!!

A wide array of products were pulled together to work the PIRATE THEME this Month
INCLUDING (but not limited to)
Small Chevy Metal Fabric Covered Buttons
Large Chevy Metal Fabric Covered Buttons
Felt Poppers (in Fushia, Stonewash, Midnight Black and Seaside Blue)
Beads from many selections in the Bead Buffet
Beaded Stick Pins (not shown in image above)
Small Black Neon Snakeskin Fabric Covered Buttons

Pinque Peacock is PROUD to INTRODUCE A NEW PRODUCT that is 
in the works at the Shop

FABRIC DIE CUT EMBELLISHMENTS

Fabric Die Cut Shapes with a Stiff Card Stock Backing to use
on your CRAFTY PROJECTS!

     Aren't these the cutest embellishments? When Jessica sent me my DT pack I was so thrilled to have my hands on these new fabric dies. I had taken the month of August off  from the Pinque Peacock Design Team and it was a good thing I did. After a long and event filled Summer it was time to start on some Fall  projects. Among other things I make clothing for 18" dolls so this was perfect to add to her outfit. Next on the Runway is Mary in her Pirate themed outfit:




     This fabric embellishment is so easy to work with and the possibilities are endless. See they are not only for cards or scrapbooks but also for cute clothing add-ons.


     Here's what I did to make it work for for T-shirt material: first I removed the cardstock backing. I used the black as a template for cutting fusible interfacing to the back of the white polka dot fabric. After I  ironed it in place I did a quick zigzag around the edge. I have a brand new sewing machine that I am still working on mastering the sizes! (I am getting there, lo). Now it was time to dress her up.


     I used some i-Rock metallics for the eyes and nose and a cute little hair bow. I am sure if you were using this for a child's shirt Jessica would be able to do these without the cardstock backing. These would be adorable with a fabric glitter glue around the edge if you do not sew. How awesome for a quick craft for your next Pirate themed party! T-shirts, embellishments, Glitter glue and bling=successful Party.

     Well that's it for my project. I hope I have helped you get those creative ideas flowing using Pinque Peacock.new Fabric embellishments.

Snow White Layout

~~~~ Click HERE for the 300 Blog Follower Giveaway ~~~~

Hello to all of our Pretty Little Peacocks

Welcome to Pinque Peacock’s
JULY New Release
"When You Wish Upon A Star"
BLOG HOP Day #1


WELCOME TO DAY #1 OF OUR BLOG HOP...

     Good Morning Pinquettes! Mary here and welcome to everyone's favorite theme Disney!!! If you have come from Shelley's  then you are in the right spot.If not then you want to start at the beginning HERE.
     Are you ready to see my project? We have been to Disney World many times so it is about time I scrap some of these pictures. The beautiful swirl flowers Jess sent me fit perfectly in this layout. So, here we go:

     
        This is probably one of the quickest layouts I have ever done. I just grabbed my pics and used the scalloped circle spellbinders and used them to cut the pictures and the layers of matting. I used a scrap piece of ribbon that was hanging around on my craft table (I never throw anything out, lol). This was a great way to to connect the 2 photos. Let's take a look at the Pinque Peacock Splendid Swirl flower and how I used it on this layout:
     Isn't this beautiful? I had a premade set of Snow White from Michaels and it had some cute jewels so I just stuck one in the center of the flower. Love the look of this. I also used one of the cute fabric covered buttons for the opposite side of the layout. 

     
     This was perfect so show Alexis love of the Princesses. Again I used some of the premades to scatter the flowers throughout the layout. To finish it all off I did some doodling around the edges and also some "grass" under Snow White so she had something to stand on!

     I am committed to using up supplies I already have so these rhinestone pieces were the first thing that came to mind with this layout. I also used a metal frame rather than a journal tag to complete the project.
     Although I have showed you how I used the Pinque Peacock supplies for this Disney layout, I hope you can see how useful they are no matter what project you are creating.
     Now its time to hop on over to Kimberly's and see what she has to wow you with!!!!
