Here Comes the Sun...

Well, ladies and gents...this is one my last posts for the SOUS Die-Cut Team. Sadly, as you may have read, this is the last month of the SOUS Challenge Blog. I've enjoyed my terms here and will miss the Sketch Challenges and, of course, the Die-Cut Challenges!

Well...enough of that sad, mushy stuff! Let's get on to my SUMMER project!






I would love to tell you what file I used but for the life of me, I can't find the origin. To recreate this you could easily just slice any title out of the sun!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you'll head on over to the SOUS Blog and leave some love to all the DT Members as they share their last posts.

Totally AWESOME 80's Blog Hop with PPPR...



Welcome to the much-anticipated TOTALLY AWESOME 80'S BLOG HOP!!! I am in LOVE with the 80's...so much so that it's playing in my car! I hope you'll be inspired by the projects you see on this hop featuring the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons cutting files!

If you came here from Kathy'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 the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Blog.

We are creating Totally Awesome 80's themed projects using Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons files. I don't know about you but ROLLER SKATES were a BIG part of my childhood and as soon as I saw the 80's Child Cutting Files...
---------------------------------------------
I just LOVE all the layers that Lisa includes in her PPPR Cut Files...it creates so much dimension. Even though I pop-dotted some of the layers with some Thing 3D-Foam Tape, the other layers didn't need it because of them being designed to layer on top of each other...
----------------------------------------------------
I duplicated the image twice, hid all the top layers then welded the extra two black bases to make a card base...can you see the peek at the sentiment inside???
------------------------------------------------------
I used the Totally Awesome 80's Cutting Files for the RAD sentiment on the inside...
-----------------------------------------------------
The blog candy for this hop is a $15 GC to the PPPR store. For a chance to win, you must be a follower of each blog and leave a comment on each blog. For extra chances, you can also "LIKE" Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons on Facebook and/or sign up for the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Newsletter and be notified of NEW Files and Friday FREEBIES!!! A random winner will be chosen for the prize on Tuesday, June 16, 2015.



This week's FRIDAY FREEBIE is only FREE through Saturday and would fit perfectly for any 80's project!!!


Don't forget....you can pick up the BLOG HOP FREEBIE on Saturday & Sunday of the hop...after that, it'll be available for sale in the store!

You can play along our PPPR 80's Challenge. The projects can be anything that remind us of the 80s and that feature Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons files. Here are the RULES and where you will link up your project! One random participant will win $20 to PPPR.

Box Full of Sunshine Teacher Gift...

I always have grand plans for Teachers' Gifts but it usually never happens the way I envision it!

I mean...these are the people that have my children more than I do during the week so I love to show my appreciation, but I usually end up not starting 'till the day before I want to give it then it's a rush-rush type of thing.

This year, I saw a "Box full of Sunshine" on Pinterest and thought that would the perfect thing to CELEBRATE another year down the tubes!

-----------------------------------------
I did throw some non-yellow things in there - but they are things that would be some SHINE to my face if I were to receive them...like this Chick-fil-A Gift Card...decorated with their mascot, a cow, from the Simply MOOvelous Stamp Set from Craftin' Desert Divas!

If school isn't out yet in your part of the world, I hope you'll consider making a Box Full of Sunshine to CELEBRATE Teachers and their Summer!!!

Don't forget to link up your project to the DECORATE TO CELEBRATE Blog under Challenge #102! We absolutely LOVE to see all of your projects!


You can follow my BACK TO SCHOOL Board if you're interested in keeping up with what inspires me!
