'Tis the Season...For Beautiful PPPR Files

I'm sharing a Christmas card with you today....because 1...it's my birthday and I can :) and 2...because it will be here before you know it and finally 3...to show you a different spin on Lisa's cutting files. 

I created this card using Snowflakes Cutting Files, but instead of cutting them and piecing them, I used Silhouette Sketch Pens and traced each part of the snowflake in white card stock. I was so excited about this, it bordered on abnormal...(the counterproductive part of this is that I fussy cut all of the parts and pieces...but it's worth it, I promise!) used watercolors on them. I layered them and just look at that??! How fun is that snowflake?!?! Add some glitter glue for a sparkly snowflake feel if you want, and adhere it to the card front!

Here's a close up of that snowflake:

THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME SHARE!

Wedding Dress Shopping Survival Kit Tag!

Hello my crafty friends!  Sarah here with you all today and I am delighted to share with you my project for today.  Over the weekend I did a little wedding dress shopping with a friend and of course I had to craft up a little something special for all of the ladies who attended.  So I created little gift bags with some fabulous tags!  The tags were by far my favorite part of the bag :)  Hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them!

The tag I created to go on the gift bags!

The awesome cut files I used:

Happy Halloween Double Layout

      Oh my goodness! Leah Schaeffer here and I'm so excited to share this with you! I very rarely do double page spreads and so this was an extra treat. Then include the fact it's been awhile since I've done a scrapbook page and I'm a happy girl! Using Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbon die cuts are always the perfect starting point for any paper crafting project....adore these images! 

   I think I can say for sure that I have a bit of a style at this point when creating layouts and it's to use the die images big and bold on a page! I love how little else a project needs when you do this! There is a bit going on but I think the simple color palette kids this from getting overwhelming.

   I added lots of shimmer and shine, from spraying the background to the glitter behind the lite-up jack o' lanterns, to the Wink of Stella added here and there. Oh, and lots and lots of Glossy Accents!

   I hope that you enjoy this project today! It was a labor of love! Not to mention the fact that I got to scrap these precious photos from a couple years ago. My youngest 2 and my best friends youngest 2! Great memories...this is why we scrap!     Ok, ready for the list of sets I've used images for? I think I'm in need of a nap after setting up this list! LOL! Check it out...

Skeleton Couple 

Little Witches

Potion Bottles 

Haunted Scenery

Pumpkin Patch

Pumpkin Patch Photo Mat...

Well, sadly, this weekend is coming to a close which means there's less than a week left 'till Halloween and about a month 'till Thanksgiving!

We plan on going to the Pumpkin Patch this week since it's rained all around us all weekend!

I had grand plans to make this on a larger scale but a migraine prevented me from doing so. Never fear...I just adjusted my plans and made a 4x4 photo mat that I can either use in my 4x4 mini album (I use it for a lot of Instagram photos) or I can create 3 more of these and put them on a 12x12 layout!

Here's a look...a cute little 2x2 photo or a 2x3 photo can go in that blank space!

--------------------------------

Again...LOVE all the layers of PPPR Files!

Here are the files I used...

Fall Borders

Fall Festival

Don't forget....this month's challenge is FALL IN LOVE and either one of these files I used would be PERFECT for a Fall-themed project! You have until October 31st to link up!

Thanks for stopping by and leaving some love!

Welcome Little Pumpkin

Hi, and Happy Thursday!

Gloria here from Gloria's Goofy Craft Spot. I hope everyone is doing well. 

For my project I mad a Fall theme Baby shower card which is perfect for the PPPR Fall in Love challenge that is going on now till October 31st. Click HERE for more info.    

The adorable little pumpkins are from PPPR Pumpkin Couple Cutting Files. The couple receiving this card have a little boy and are now expecting a girl. That is why I added a little boy pumpkin to the front of the card with mom and dad and the little girl pumpkin in the inside of the card. I used peachy keens stamps for the faces. For the hearts I used a Heid Swapp stencil along with Tim Holtz Tea Dye Distress Ink. The sentiments are from Pink By Design Vintage Greeting and Baby Love stamp set.

Java Nice Day!

Happy Wednesday Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons fans!  It's Michelle from Purple Monkey Moments, and I am here to share a project that I created with some amazing PPPR files. 

I really like the two new gift card holders that Lisa recently created.  This is the folded one, and you can find it HERE.  

I decided to decorate it with the cute coffee cup from the Java Great Day cut set.  I just LOVE that set!  The faces are all SO cute.  You can buy your own HERE.

You can see all of the cute SVG files from Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons in the SHOP and be sure to check out all the details of my card over on my blog.

A la prochaine,

Spook-tacular Halloween card

Hi fellow crafters..
It's Nanné here to share a "spook-tacular" card I created using some of the Halloween themed cutting files from Lisa's store..

here is the card I created:

Fun in a spooky kind of way..LOL 

 I absolutely love Halloween and I love to create fun Halloween themed projects and cards..

Here are some close ups and details:

I found some cute tombstone sayings online and used some free fonts I have in my stash to add them to the tombstones, just print and cut around edge.. These great tomb stones and the iron gate are in the Haunted Graveyard Cutting File.

I decided my card needed an over sized moon with some spooky bats lurking about :)

I found the perfect images in the Haunted Scenery Cutting File.

I decided it needed a banner and found the perfect one in the Sentiment Spots 5 cutting file.. 

I did the same as with the tombstones, added some fun fonts, print and then cut around edge..

The grass which was a must have, is in the Flower Assortments Cutting file.

and their you have my Spook-tacular Halloween card..
Thanks for stopping by today..
Till next time..
hugs
Nanné


Welcome to the Neighborhood

Happy Monday!!  I hope you had a great weekend!!  Nicole here today to share with you a "floral pick" I made to insert into a mum plant that I gave to my new neighbors.  The Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' "Home Sweet Home" cutting files worked perfectly for this!!  I cut out the tall house at approximately 61/2 inches high.  I used some fall colored washi tape to adhere a wooden skewer to the back of my house cut and inserted it into the plant.  Voila!!  A great welcome to the neighborhood gift :-)  I had plenty of room on the back to write a quick note too!!

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Happy Birthday!

Hi everyone,

It's Melissa with Moe Creations, I hope everyone is doing good this Sunday Morning?!? It's my day here at PPPR, I have another shaped card for you. I think I have found what I enjoy making, I use to create shaped cards all the time and got away from it, but I am back at it!! How long, well that's another question...lol.

One of my co-workers wanted me to make her child a card with a chihuahua on it for a birthday card and this is what I came up with.

Chihuahua Cuttin file

Birthday Critters Cutting Files

He turned out so cute, I hope you enjoy the card!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a blessed day!
