Bookmarks Galore!

Hello Everyone!!!

This is Manu here and I have some really pretty bookmarks done with the new June release of PABD.

Before heading over to the bookmarks, Do remember to participate in the blog hop that PABD is hosting for this month, find all the details in the link below along with the information about the new challenge for this month. This month it's all about  using your new and old stamps!

http://peek-a-boodesigns.blogspot.in/2016/06/challenge-7-and-blog-hop.html

Lets checkout the bookmarks that I make!

The challenge this time around was to use the new release and the old stamps simultaneously into the projects!! Here's what I made

These sentiments are from the new release called 'Positive Quotes' and for the embellies, I have picked up the 2 old stamps known as 'Summer Cooler' and 'Chirping away'

Here are the stamps that I have used!!!

 

The Mandala stamp is probably one of the best stamps in this collection, with endless possibilities, this stamp set is a must have!!

In the left bookmark, I have stamped the flowers from the mandala onto a cardstock and arranged this floral arrangement onto the base of the bookmark. Seeing the leaves there, that also is taken from a mandala in this collection. The right hand side bookmark is a color riot!! I have tried to incorporate a lot of colors in this one!!

Here are the stamp sets used!

Think of bookmarks and none for the books?? Not possible, right, so this set is esp for the bookworms!!!! 

Stamp sets used!

I hope you all liked the bookmarks and will surely try these stamps for something other than cards!! I loved making these!!

Happy Crafting!

Challenge #7 and a Blog Hop

Hey crafty heads !!

We had an amazing time last month trying and finalizing all the new release items. You can buy the new release items from our webpage www.thepeekaboodesigns.com.

Without any further delay let me talk about the Challenge this month.

The basic theme is ANYTHING GOES and there is a little twist to the same.You need to use an item from your OLD STASH and mix it with something you added RECENTLY PURCHASED. Yep we generally ignore our old supplies and on creating stuffs from the new ones. So here is the time open your old supplies .. remove that small amount of dust from them .. and create some awesome project combining them with new ones.

 General Rules : 

1. Be a follower of our blog
2. Create a new project for the challenge. No back links please. Altered art, ATCs, cards, scrapbook pages, or any other craft projects are acceptable as long as they adhere to the month’s challenge. You may enter as many projects as you like.
3. USING STAMP/STENCIL IS A MUST
4. Please link to the exact post on your blog - not the home page URL of your blog - using the inlinkz icon at the bottom of the challenge.
5. You MUST mention our blog in your post AND link back to our blog or your entry will not be counted.
6. If you do not have a blog you can enter our challenges by tagging us on facebook and instagram with "#PABDchallenges". If you do not tag us we do not see your entry.
7. You may enter a card, a page layout, an altered item, a mixed media item, a mini album.. anything that fits the challenge, unless the challenge states that a specific type of project must be created. Please , no 100% digital projects. A part of the project can be digital.
8. No restriction on the number of challenges you can take part in - As long as your project matches our challenge, you may "pile on" the other challenges to your heart's content.
9. We will accept a maximum of three entries per person. Please add -2 and -3 next to your name for subsequent entries.
10. A Winner will be chosen on their merits. So submit your most creative projects. And that's all there is to it! International Crafters are welcome to participate in our challenges but their prizes would only be sent to an Indian address due to high shipping cost

To add some fun to the challenge and bidding a goodbye to the existing team we have a blog hop.. Hmm yeah I know we dint even realize the time flew by so quickly and a span of 6 months passed away with a blink of an eye.

Hi Peek-a-boo Design Friends,

This set is so dear to our heart. Designed keeping  in mind all the lovely scrapbooks and cards that we make for the adorable newborn babies, this set gives you a simple way to add a charm to those pages but keeps everything looking clean and cute..

Next up is a set that I am super in love with which we're calling Mandala. This stamp set contains a series of Semi Mandalas which you could stamp twice and make them full ones.. Yep we did that intentionally so that you get more in less .. The biggest Mandala when complete will be almost 2.8" in diameter .. 

When using this set and seeing what the Design Team does with them you will be amazed as to all the different pattern possibilities this set has! Loads of potential here!

And not to forget this set is designed by Purvi Gadewar ..

After that we have a set which all the crafters who have kids in school or send cards to their teachers as a note of thanks occasionally .This is a perfect Stamp set to create Teachers Day cards !!Or a Congratulations card for your children performing well in class .. the possibilities are endless..

This set is designed by Diljeet Kaur

The next stamp set is a seasonal stamp set .. With the onset of Rainy season in major parts of the country .. this was the right time to get this stamp out .. This is a stamp which can be used for the rainy season .. for making love cards and even encouragements/ support cards .. This is a beautiful set and im sure your would love it..

This set is one of those set which is would fit into number of projects from mixed media projects to motivational cards ..

This cute little stamp set is designed by Deepti Stephens,, It is a cute little mini stamp which has a bunny and a sentiment ..

This love in paris stamp set is an Exclusive membership stamp set .. and has the famous Eiffel tower and other elements to give it a vintage feel .. this stamp set again has endless possibilities .. make cards .. mixed media projects or  even use individual elements on  scrapbook pages .. 

And now for the new product that we are adding to our kitty .. Yes many of you people out there guessed it right they are STENCILS .. and to start with we are launching three very basic stencils which are a must have for all the card makers , scrapbookers, mixed media artists.. 

These stencils have a large working area of 7.75" by 7.75" and is perfect for making those huge 5-7" cards even when you rotate the stencil a bit .. Even after this big size they wont make a big hole in your pocket .. they are just for Rs. 200 each .. And not to forget they have a hole on the top for easy management and storage of your stencils .. Just attach Binder Rings and your stencils are good to store .. together .. none of them would be misplaced..
