PPPR Smarty Pants Blog Hop

Happy Saturday Crafty Friends!
 
 
Welcome to the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons Smarty Pants Blog Hop!
 
You should have arrived from Lisa's blog, but if not, head on over and start from the beginning.  You won't want to miss any of the awesome projects today!
 
Today we are sharing with you "Smarty Pants" themed projects.  Think back to school, nerdy, etc.
 
For my project, I made a fun book mark. 
 

 
Details:
PPPR Primary Supplies cutting files, Crayon Box
PPPR Bookmarks cutting files
I cut the book mark twice and glued the two together to make it sturdier.  I also enlarged the bookmark a bit to avoid super tiny pieces in the crayon box.

 
The blog candy for this hop is a $15 GC to the PPPR store. For a chance to win, you must be a follower of each blog 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, August 11, 2015.
 

When you're all finished hopping today, be sure to head on over to the PPPR store and pick up the hop freebie.  It will only be free for the hop during this weekend, and after that it will be available for purchase.
 
 
Today's hop kicks off the beginning of a new monthly challenge.  The projects can be anything that are school or nerdy themed and feature Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons files. Be sure to link up your challenge projects to the blog here.  Or you can add a picture of your project to the PPPR Project Parade Facebook Group, here

You can enter as many different projects as you want for more chances to win.  The challenge will run for 3 weeks.  You must link up your project by 11:55 pm CST on Saturday, August 29,  2015.
5.  One random winner of a $20 Gift Certificate to PPPR will be chosen.  Our Design Team will also choose our PPPR Top 3.  Winners will be announced on Friday, September 4, 2015.
