Hi everyone!

Thank You for joining us for the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons and My Craft Spot Blog Hop.
I hope your enjoying your Saturday and all the beautiful Spring projects that both PPPR and MCS design team have made featuring different Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons files & My Craft Spot Stamps.

If you came here from Gwen's blog, you are in the right place.  If you just stumbled upon this post and would like to start from the beginning, please visit Lisa's blog.



 

 



For my project I made a project life pocket page scrapbook layout. I used PPPR "Hoppy Easter Cutting Files" for the "Hoppy Easter", eggs and bunny. For the grass I used PPPR "Flower Assortment Cutting Files". The super cute sentiment is from MCS "Happy Easter" stamp set and I stamped it on the second image from PPPR "Layered Labels 2 Cutting Files".

 

 

 I used Heid Swapp Color Shine to splatter some color on some of the page. The colors I used are Black Velvet, Primrose, Mustard and Teal. First time using and I really like the way it came out. I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink around the eggs and around most of the paper. For the grass I used chalk.

 

 The Welcome Easter Bunny card and the pink egg shape card is from Becky Higgns Mini Holiday Project Life kit. The yellow polka dot card is from Becky Higgns Blush core kit. The arrow is from PPPR "Best Buddies Cutting Files". The love you sentiment is from  MCS "Happy Easter" stamp set. I only used part of the sentiment. The whole sentiment said "Some bunny loves you. I used Peachy Keen Animal Faces stamp for the bunny's faces.

PPPR DT DAY ~ PL St. Patrick's Day layout

Hi and Thank You for stopping by.

Today is Design Team posting day over at Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbon. Make sure you stop on by the blog to see the rest of the design team's projects HERE.

For my project I made a St. Patrick's Day project life layout. The left side is a We R Memory Keepers page protector and the right side is a Becky Higgins page protector. All the shamrocks are from  PPPR Shamrock Faces Cutting Files. I stamped two of the shamrocks with Peachy Keen "The Cornies Face" Assortment Stamp Set. The horseshoes are from PPPR Luck of the Irish Cutting Files. I inked them up with Tim Holtz Mustard Seed Distress Ink and added some Yellow Stickles as well. The arrow is from  PPPR Best Buddies Cutting Files and I used Lime Green Stickles on them. The tabs on the right are from PPPR Layered Labels 2 Cutting Files and PPPR Layered Labels 3 Cutting Files. I forgot to write down the name of the fonts that I used.

 The Happy St. Patrick's Day sentiment is from PBD "Lucky" Stamp Set. I added some washi tape to the top left and to the bottom left side. I also did some stitching around the shamrock with a white gel pen. I used  Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn Distress Ink around the page.

 

I made the arrow on the left from the same arrow on the right. I just cut the arrow apart and put it back together in a different way.

 

 Once I had it the way I wanted it I welded it.

 

For the Smile tab I cut an image in half from the PPPR Layered Labels 3 Cutting Files. The Friends tab is also cut in half from PPPR Layered Labels 2 Cutting Files. The "Smile" sentiment is from  PBD "Everyday Banners" Stamp Set and the "Friends" sentiment is from PBD "Friends to the End" Stamp Set. The 3 green 3X4 cards are from Becky Higgins "Holiday" Mini Kit. The yellow 3X4 card is from Becky Higgins "Kraft" Core Kit.

 

I will also be entering this PL layout into the "Make it clear or cut it out" challenge going on over at Pocket Page challenge blog HERE.  

 

Before I go I want to remind you about the PPPR "Just for Kids" challenge going on now till Saturday April 5, 2014. One random participant will win a $20 Gift Certificate to PPPR. Link up your project HERE.

PPPR ~ Just for Kids Blog Hop

Hi everyone!

Thank You for joining us for the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons "Just for Kids" blog hop.

Make sure you  start the blog hop at the beginning over at Lisa's blog HERE if you just happen to be passing by. You don't want to miss all the wonderful and super cute "Just for Kids" projects that were made using PPPR files. If you're coming here from Brianna's blog than you're in the right place.



 For my project I used PPPR "K-Cup Treat Cutting Files" to hold two E.O.S lip balm along with two packs of  Wrigley 5 gum. For the side borders I used PPPR "Borders 2 Cutting Files" with the heart from PPPR "Valentine Kids Cutting Files" and added some yellow stickles to the hearts. For the girl I combined superwomen from PPPR "Superheroes Trio 2 Cutting Files" and the Native American Girl from PPPR "First Thanksgiving Cutting Files" to make her. Her headband is from  PPPR "Valentine Kids Cutting Files" and cute little face is from Peachy Keen Princess Face Assortment stamp set.  The sentiment is from PBD "Birthday, Birthday" stamp set and stamped it on one of the images from PPPR "Layered Labels 1 Cutting Files".

 I was also able to make a little pocket with the two pieces that cut out from the handle to hold some cash. Also please note that you do need to make the circles a little smaller. I can't seem to find my file. I really hope I didn't delete it:( 

For the shirt I cut the bottom half off, made two straps and welded them to the top.

For my project I made a St. Patrick's day treat .  I used  PPPR "Fancy Pillow Box 1 Cutting Files" along with PPPR "Shamrock Faces Cutting Files". I inked up the edge's of the box with Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn distress ink and added some Lime Green stickles to the trim in the middle of the box. For the cute little shamrocks I stamped them with Peachy Keen "The Cornies Face" stamp set. I used green chalk for the cheek and inked around with Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn distress ink. The sentiment is from MCT "Chocolate Greetings" stamp set. Than finally I added some sequins.
