A Prettie Wednesday Challenge!

Before we get to this week's challenge I want to thank all of the participants from last week's challenge. All of the Christmas projects were terrific! I loved seeing all of the creative non-traditional colors! The lucky random winner from last week's challenge is Mary Dawn! Please send me an email (hlrcrafts@hotmail.com) with your address and I will get your prize out to you right away!

This week we have a really easy challenge for you...GLITTER! Use glitter somewhere on your project! We would love for you to play along with us! One random participant in this week's challenge will win the Paper Pretties set Wade E. Bug. You do NOT need to use Paper Pretties stamps to participate in the challenge, but if you have them, we would love to see them! Be sure to leave a link to your project at the bottom of this post!

My card for today's challenge uses You're Maavelous Sophia. My glitter comes in the form of Glitter Dots. The Paper Pretties store has 18 different colors of Glitter Dots in stock! They are flat backed and work great with mini Glue Dots!


The design team made some fabulous glitter cards that you definitely don't want to miss. To start this week's blog hop head on over to Frances' blog!

Thanks for stopping by today! We hope you all have a terrific day!

Paper Pretties Wednesday Challenge!

Welcome to the first Paper Pretties Wednesday challenge at our brand spankin new blog! As Jennifer said in yesterday's post, we have tons of fun things planned for you. The new blog is just the beginning. We will be having lots of fun challenges and giveaways in coming days so be sure to check back! If it has been a while since you've been to the Paper Pretties Boutique, stop by and take a look around! I have added tons of new products (just added 18 colors of Dress It Up Glitter Dots yesterday!) and all stamps are on sale 10-75% off!

Before I post this week's challenge I want to give a huge THANK YOU shout out to Jennifer Greco for helping me with the blog! I am pretty much the most technologically challenged person around, so things would not look as Prettie around here without her! Jennifer, you are a life saver!

Now...for this week's challenge! Our challenge this week comes from Prettie Girl Jackie! Jackie's challenge for everyone is to make a Christmas card or project using non-traditional Christmas colors! We would love for you to play along with us! One random participant in this week's challenge will win the Paper Pretties set "You're Maarvelous Sophia"! You do NOT need to use Paper Pretties stamps for the challenge, but if you have them we would love to see you use them!

You have until 5pm on Tuesday July 27th to get your challenge done. Please leave a link to your project using InLinkz below.

For some fabulous Christmas inspiration, be sure to check out the Prettie Girls' blog hop! To start the hop, head on over to Frances' blog!
