For the next two weeks at My Besties PPP Challenge blog we have another great challenge for you!

** Note our new name**  PPP = Pretty Pre-colored Printables

The challenge theme is- Anything Goes with a Printable!

To participate in our My Besties PPP challenges go here:

For this project i am using a My Besties tag sheet called Clever Chole Maison Jar Tags found at Sherri Baldy's My Besties Etsy store here .

When i cut out this tag, i added a slit at the top to add the foliage die. I also added some Magic Mod Podge and some glitter when the Mod Podge was wet. This gives a "jar" shiny look.


Side look at this card:

These sheets are fun and easy to use!  They are all pre-colored for you, all you do is print out your sheets, this set comes with 6 tags all on a sheet.  You can reduce or enlarge these images for your use.

Dies i used:
The large pink snowflake is Spellbinders
The white snowflakes are a Martha Stewart punch
The tiny snowflakes are a punch.
Winter word die is from Noor/Joy Craft

A My Besties sketch and a Winter Bashful Besties!

I was coloring up this Bestie and needed some inspiration for a card and found out from my friend that the Spanish My Besties had a card sketch, so i thought i'd give it a try and add this card to a couple challenges.

I think this image is just so adorable..really reminds me of what it was like when i wore snowpants over 50 yrs ago.  Of course i never got to just go out with a sweater.. Michigan weather in the winter called for a coat too!

This is a My Besties image called Winter Bashful.  You can find her here.
