Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Guest Designer Projects!!

Hi, hi, hi!! :) Can you tell I am so super excited about this post?? Today I am the guest designer over at Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons!! My Pink By Design "sister" has started her own store with SVGs, graphics and digital paper. Not only has she started this little venture, she also designs stamps for Pink By Design on a regular basis! She is soooo talented and I am honored to be a guest designer for her today! 

My projects today are featuring the Ladybug Cutting Files and Love Bug Digital Papers. The paper packs I choose to work with are the Love Bug Horizontal Stripes and Love Bug Black Polka Dots

My first project is a card... 


I had so much fun cutting this little critter out and my girls LOVED her. To add some detail I used some glossy accents on her eyes and shoes, Black Soot Distress Ink around the edges, some red Martha Stewart glitter and a white gelly roll pen. I used the Everyday Banners stamp set combined with a sentiment from Simply Everything set, both from Pink By Design. 


I used some pop dots to make sure my little "lady" stood out. 

My second project was, of course, a layout!! 


I am soo in love with using digital papers... I am such a matchy match type of person and using digital paper works PERFECTLY for me. Plus, you can never run out of a certain pattern like you do with regular paper! 


I cut the letters using my Cameo and added a few little details to the white letters with a ZIG pen. 


I had to add a little lady bug to my layout as well... I actually cut three out since Bria, my 4 year old, loves to craft along with me. She made her very own card too. If you look close you can see I added some black glitter glue to some of the black dots on the background paper. I love the extra texture! 


As soon as I started working on this layout I knew I wanted to makes some rosettes with the striped paper. Love how they turned out!! I added some sparkly embellishments into the centers of the rosettes for some more glimmer. 

I hope you enjoyed my projects today!! Make sure and head on over to the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons store to check out this weeks new products!! Every Wednesday there are great new additions to the store!! 
 Lisa at Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons is also currently hosting a Design Team call so if you love playing with SVGs, graphics or digital paper make sure to get your application in!! The deadline is Sunday, September 9th so hurry! :)
