Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons - Just For Him Blog Hop

Yippee!!! It's a Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons blog hop!! Always fun!! :) We are all making masculine projects for our hop this time around, and Lisa has some awesome files available to make projects for all the men and boys in our lives!! If you came from Jeanne's blog, you are in the right place but if you just stumbled upon this blog, make sure to head back to Lisa's blog so you don't miss any projects!!

I used the recently released Tool Time Cutting Files for my card.


I kept my card super simple because I didn't want to take away from my tape measure. 


I always use a foam stickers on my projects to make certain items "pop" off my page. 

Here is what I used to make my card...
- Tape Measure from the Tool Time Cutting Files set
- Layered Labels 1 Cutting Files
- Sentiment from the Pink By Design Our Fathers stamp set
- Chevron embossing folder
- white gelly roll pen

A PPPR blog hop would not be complete without a great prize from Lisa!! 


For a chance to win, you must be a follower of each blog on our hop 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
A random winner will be chosen for the prize on Tuesday, May 21st. Only US or Canadian mailing addresses, please.

Now off to 
where I KNOW she will have an awesome project!!

In case you get lost along the way, here is the hop lineup...
