Hello and happy Friday,  friends!

As the weekend gets ever closer, we find ourselves wrapping up another fun and exciting week here at
Peachy Keen Stamps!

morning, and our 5 winners of the $150 worth of gift certificates will be announced

Before we move on to our challenge for this week, it has come to our attention that we haven't yet announced our $30 Gift Certificate Winner from August.   As our regular challenge players know, if you play along and link up to each  of our challenges within the month, players are automatically entered into a random drawing for a $30 Gift Certificate.  With all the busy-ness of the past couple of weeks, we completely forgot to announce our winner from the August challenges!!!  So without further ado, a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS goes out to 

ALVINA!!!
From Alvina's Creations

Alvina, please be expecting to hear from Peachy Keen Headquarters about how to claim your prize, and thanks for being so patient!!! 


Now on with our new challenge!
Our crafty mission  for this week is a dandy!  DoBea consistently brings us one great challenge after another, and without a doubt, she's done it yet again.  Finding new ways to use your stamps, is always exciting, and 
 I think you're going to LOVE DoBea's challenge for us this week!
