PPPR Deisgn Team Day

Happy Wednesday my fellow crafty friends!!  I have another project so share with you using some of the fun cutting files from Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons.  I need to increase my birthday card stash so I started with this one!  First off I used the "Center Panel Step Card "cutting files for my card base.  Then I used one of the flower and stem files to create my flower and I added 2 branches - all of these are from the "Flower Assortment" cutting files set.  I just love this flower set from Lisa and cannot wait to play with it some more - there are so many possibilities and it comes with a variety of flowers, stems and branches to work with.

It is design team day for Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons, so make sure to check out the rest of the team's projects by heading over to the PPPR BLOG.  You will get to see lots of creative inspiration as I work with some very talented ladies!  Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget that we want to see what you create with the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' digital papers, graphics and cutting files.  Post your projects at the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' Facebook page HERE.  

3d Watering Can with 3GJ ribbon

Happy Monday!!  I am here with another project using some wonderful ribbon from 3 Girl JAM.  I have wanted to make this 3d watering can from the silhouette online store for awhile now.  I added some "Baby Girl"  pink 3GJ ribbon on both sides of the can.  I used my 3GJ bow maker to tie a double bow for this project.  I just love the bow maker - makes tying ribbons so quick and easy!

My patterned paper is from last year's DCWV "Spring Fling" stack.  Thanks for stopping by today!!

We are do-it-yourself home remodelers so this card is perfect for my husband!!  I used Cardz TV Stamps' set "You're the Man" for both of my sentiments.  My toolbox is from Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' "Tool Time Cutting Files" and my sentiment frame is from Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' "Sentiment Spots Cutting Files".    The background paper is from Crate Paper and the twine is American Crafts.  Don't forget to check out the rest of the CTVS design team's projects and enter your "Father's Day" project too by heading over to Mary's blog.  Thanks for stopping by today!!  Have a great weekend!

"Ladybug Hugs" - PPPR Design Team Day

Today is another project day for the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons design team.  I decided to make a birthday card for a sweet little neighbor girl who turned 5 yesterday!  My youngest was invited to her party so I made this card especially with her in mind.  I used Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons "Ladybug Cutting files" for my ladybug holding the flower.  I also used PPPR "Layered Labels 2 cutting files" for the frame behind her.  I created a shadow layer for the yellow portion of the frame.  

My designer paper is from the Bo Bunny 6x6 "sweet cakes" pad.  My sentiments are from Cardz TV Stamps "Think Spring" and "Good Times" sets.   Thanks for stopping by today!!  Don't forget to head over to the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' BLOG to see what the rest of the team's projects and to see what's new in the store.
