Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Deck the Halls Blog Hop

YAY! It's Saturday! That means that it's time for the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Deck the Halls Blog Hop. My Design Team friends and I are sharing all sorts of Christmas themed projects that will be perfect to get you in the holiday mood!  We have a prize up for grabs and a little freebie just for you guys. We'll also be kicking off our next challenge. So, be sure to check out each and every project along the way today...you don't want to miss a THING!  If you are here from the blog of the awesome and talented Ruth you are in the right place!! 

For my project, I decided to create a lighted glass block to highlight some vinyl and snowflakes-- I think I like my glass block better without the lights--but the lights just add so much :) Hmmm maybe I need to find a set of white lights for it vs. the blue?!?!?  So tough to decide!  Not too mention a MUCH smaller set of lights... I think this was a set of 70 jammed in there!



Here is the fabulous file I used:

Winter Wonderland Cutting Files

And of course the fabulous and talented Lisa has created a cute little freebie just for you!  This freebie will ONLY be available for FREE Saturday, December 13 and Sunday, December 14.  

How cute is this?!?!?!?  LOVE!!!! 


This hop also kicks off our new Christmas Challenge.  Link up you Christmas themed project that uses PPPR files for a chance to win a $20 Gift Certificate to Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons.  You can link up and read all of the guidelines HERE!!!

Now how about some fabulous Blog Candy????


One lucky hopper will win a $15 gift certificate to PPPR!  Here's what you need to do:

Beautiful block! I think clear lights would be stunning, especially if you can find them with a white string ;) Good luck! (you might just want to stick to the ones already in there) lol
