It's the Most Wonderful Time...

Hi, Ruth here from Paper and Musings.

Do you enjoy this time of the year? Even with all the hustle and bustle there's so much to love about Christmas!
My project may not look a lot like Christmas, but it's about something that happens every December in my neck of the woods - the Lego Train Show!
I used the awesome Master Builder Cutting Files and Lego Mania Title Cutting Files to create my page.





I used some of the single bricks like picture frames while others are a decorative border near the bottom. The big block of bricks was cut down for my journaling and the block guy and gal anchor each side. Of course, the title - is perfect! I used print and cut for everything (I used photo paper to get that shiny Lego look), but cut some extra pieces to add dimension on different images.

My kids loved Legos, so this is just the beginning of layouts with a Lego theme. How about you? Do you have lots of Lego creations that need a scrappy page to celebrate them? I sure hope you'll have as much fun scrapping your pictures as I did mine.

Happy crafting!

Ruth :-)

Guest Designer ~ Faith Wallace plus New File and FREEBIE Friday!!!

TGIF, everyone! Our Guest Designer this week is Faith Wallace. Faith may seem like a familiar face here at Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons...but that's because she's a devoted fan and creator of all things PPPR. You'll see a lot of PPPR on her blog ScrapbookerPhD! We  love that Faith! We also love the creations you share with your readers as well! 

She created this super sweet card that would be nice to receive! How lovely are the colors?!?!? Faith used the A2 Card Bases 1 Cutting Files, Flourishes 1 Cutting Files and Heart Lock Cutting Files



I am so excited to tell you that I actually got two sets of files designed this week. WOO HOO!  It seems that things have been so crazy around here lately that I haven't gotten a set done in so long! But, I got some sweet Christmas themed sets finished for you. So, here's what's new in the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Store




Finally, there's a new FRIDAY FREEBIE in the store. This file will be available as a free download for one week, then it will be moved to the 99 Cent Downloads section of the store.  This freebie includes SVG., DXF, .JPG, and .PNG files. YAY!

The card base is from the A2 Card Bases 1 Cutting Files. The trees are from the Christmas Tree Car Cutting Files. The Deer are from the Deer Family Silhouettes Cutting Files.  The snow is from the Snow Globe Cutting Files.
I just resized the snow to fit the bottom of my card and then ran it through the embossing folder.

Christmas cookies layout

It's Nanné here and it's my turn to share a layout with you that I created as my design team project..

I baked and decorated my very first sugar Christmas cookies last year and thought it was time to scrap a page of it :)

Here is what I created:
I used the Christmas Cookies Cutting file for all of the cookies and the title "Christmas!"..
I added details using twine, ribbon, Zazz glitter glue and liquid pearls..

How about some close ups and details:

I added a photo of my cookie decorating..LOL Not too bad for my first attempt..
framed my photo using one of the labels from the Layered Labels 3 cutting file..

I used the top part of the Christmas cookie phrase from the Christmas cookies cutting file.
 Love this font..


I wanted a fun play on words style of title and so added two wreath cookies to replace the O's in the work Cookies.. Those are in the Christmas cookies cutting file.

These cute little guys are also in the Christmas cookies cutting file..


I also added two little tags and tucked those behind a few cookies..
The tags can be found in the Layered tags 1 cutting file..


and there ya have it, my post  for today..
I wanna thank you for stopping by today and do stop by Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons store and check out what adorable cutting files Lisa has..

Till Next time..
hugs
Nanné
