Let It Go PPbN Designs

Let It Go scrapbook layout.
 Link here. I changed up the colors some and made the title smaller so I could add an extra mat. I put stickles on the crown and the septar. I used the cut out shapes from the castle for flakes on the page and I tore a snow border for the bottom.

M&M Mother's Day Card

               You're My Favorite M&M Mother's Day card                         This is the image I started with,

I loaded the SVG file of the title and rearranged the pieces to come up with this image.



I separated the pieces out and loaded the mat.



 I cut two of the base shape and on one I added a score line.


You can either put the M on the green M or not.

Happy Easter to Everyone.

Hoppy Easter Everyone!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter. We had a great day with my daughter singing in church and a nice meal afterwards. This layout was cut from the Hoppy Easter file http://www.ppbndesigns.com/hoppy-easter-single-12x12-page-kit/. I just love this file and have used it several times this Easter season. The pieces can be used in several different ways. I decided to put the chocolate bunny in the basket for this layout.

Treat Bag Toppers from the Silhouette Store

These were so easy to do with print and cut. I just put the three topper layers together and printed them as one cut. I removed the cut lines from the two top layers and just cut the base shape I also added the Thank you as part of the print and cut, I removed the cut line on the letters. I chose to cut the flowers separate.

Bride and Groom from PPbN Designs

This is a new file and I just had to try and make something from it. Bride and groom file is here.
I used a card base and added a background paper and the ribbon. The Mr & Miss is from the Sil. Store and I made an offset for it.

Eggstra Special from PPbN Designs

I have been making my Easter layout so I am ready when I get my pictures developed. This one will be for one of my grand daughters. Egg-Stra Special be PPbN Designs
For the bows along the side of the photo mats I cut a piece of ribbon around a inch longer than the mat and tape the ends to the back side of the mat then I cut another piece about 4 inches long and tie it to the front where I want the ribbon placed. I had to twist this ribbon since it was one sided.

 Then just pull tight.

 The back side of the chick. the extra glue is fine since I had to glue the whole piece to the white base.

 Add the egg shell and the ears and he is finished.

 I glued down the eggs first because I wanted the writing to be the top layer. I glued Egg-Stra on next so Special was on top.

Cover of small legal pad with PPbN bearpeeker.

PIf you haven't noticed I love PPbN Designs and make a lot of her layouts. Well a applied to be on her design team and she said YES! I will be still working with other files but you will see more of the PPbN files. I made a cover for a small legal pad and a card to go with it. Today I will show you the notebook cover and Monday on the PPbNDesigns.com blog I will show you how I made the easel card. Please leave me a comment if you like my tutorials.
 I cut a piece of 12 x 12 cardstock at 8 1/2 inches. The paper I used is My Reflections CTMH
 I scored the 12 inch side at 2", 2 1/4", 7 1/4" and 7 1/2". Fold on these lines.
I used TerrificallyTacky tape from Michaels but any strong holding tape will work. Then placed the legal pad between the score lines.

 Close
Use can use velcro or something to close but I choose a belly band this time. I cut a strip from the left over paper and scored like the first piece.
 Used another piece of the Tacky tape and attached the bear peeker from PPbNDesigns.com http://www.ppbndesigns.com/bear-peeker/. I sized it up so that is fit on the front perfect. To do this I choose the base piece, measured the front of the pad and made the bear that wide.
