MCS and PPPR Spring Hop and Giveaway

Good morning! Welcome to the Spring Hop with My Craft Spot and Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons. Members of the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Design Team and the My Craft Spot Design Team have joined together to create projects featuring different files & stamp sets. If you came here from Shannon'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 Lisa's blog.


For this hop, we all made projects that are Spring/Easter related using Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Files and My Craft Spot Stamps. I decided to use the Cute Chicks Cutting Files for my card:


I cut it out using some DCWV simple pattern paper, and a bit of Basic Grey patterned solid color paper. The layers assemble together perfect! This was my first time using an SVG file - and I loved how easy it was! Definitely will have to play with a few more of those!


I used my Lil' Inker's stitched oval dies to cut a window in my glue pattern paper, matted it in white, and adhere it to my card base. Then I attached the assembled chick with foam adhesive for a touch of dimension.


I cut a banner using My Craft Spot's Straight Ribbon Banner Dies, and stamped my sentiment from Butterfly Kisses stamp set - such a fun spring set! Added a tiny paper clip in the top corner and tied on some Yellow Baker's Twine and a bit of my favorite Natural Jute Twine in a bow. Finished off with some sequins from the Lemon Meringue color pack.


Now - on to the fun part! The Giveaway! Here are the details:
