Is he cute or what?!?  I used the Little Otter files.  He is so easy to cut and I love him!  I decided to make a shape card.  I created that with the Pool Fun Title file.  I stood it up on it's end, and welded two of them together - voila!  A shape card!

Smiling Sloth

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.

Sunday morning, we all watched the first episode of the new Planet Earth 2.  They had a segment on sloths.  My daughter LOVED them, so I decided to make this little card for her:

Don't ya LOVE it?? This little sloth is adorable!  I'm not sure what it was about the sloths that spoke to Gabrielle, but I was so pleased to remember this little cutie in the PPPR store.

I also used a PPPR card base to create my card.  I think this one is SO versatile, I especially love using it as a base for banners, but today it is my cute card base.  You can find it HERE.

Football Season

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 an amazing PPPR file. 

With football season upon us, I decided to make a cute little card.  We do a family football pool where the winner gets a gift card to a local book store.  

This is a bit of a modified shape card.  I shadowed the Little Football file in my Silhouette Design software.  Then I welded a rectangle to it, to create the mat below.  I think it worked out really well!  You all know how much I love Lisa's files with faces, and this little football is no exception.  The teeth kill me!!

Jam Tags

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.

It is finally summer in Nova Scotia, and I love to use the local (short) summer harvest to make delicious jams and pickles.  We make tons, and then give them away as gifts through out the year.  I decided to make some tags, with one of Lisa's newest files, that I could add to the jam jars for that perfect home made touch!

I just love the adorable Silly Fruit cutting file!!  I can't resist cute faces on things.  This was also SO easy to cut out, which for me is always a HUGE bonus!

I ask you, could you resist this cute little guys face??  I didn't think so!   You can find this fabulous new file HERE.

The tags are made with, what I consider to be a must have set.  Layered Labels 1.  I use these as tags, card mats, and have even made shape cards out of some of them, on my Silhouette.  You can find them HERE.

We Are Family Mini Album

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 am LOVING making Mini Albums these days!  I wanted to try to use products I had, instead of buying a bunch of new tools, and PPPR came to the rescue!  Let me show you how:

I wanted to put a frame on the cover of my album, but I don't own a lot of die cut shapes.  I did a quick search of PPPR, and found a bunch of options!  I chose this pretty scalloped frame.  I was able to change the size in my Silhouette program.  You can find the frame HERE.

The mini albums I have been making, have pockets for large tags.  I like putting a pull tab, so you know exactly where to find the tags.  I found a set of GREAT pull tabs HERE.  I chose the oval one, and they are AWESOME!!

I decided to make a video, to show you just how amazing these files are in my mini.  You can find it below.

Did you know that you can find MANY of Lisa's designs in the Silhouette Store??  The tabs and frames I used are all there, the tabs are HERE and the frame is HERE.  You can find full sets, and individual cuts that you can't live without HERE.
