Welcome to the August 2020 PPP Blog Hop! This month’s kit is called World’s Greatest, and it’s all about celebrating the heroes in our lives. You can celebrate a teacher, friend, coach, kid, or anyone else you think is the greatest. For my projects, I used the kit along with some extra card stock to create a card and gift bag. I used the ribbon on the card to make it look more like a race medal than a blue ribbon prize. My husband used to be a runner and triathlete, so there’s quite a collection of these medals in our house. I used glue and Stampin’ Seal for my projects, but you can absolutely use the glue dots that come with the kit. You could also use Stampin’ Seal+ or Tear & Tape. 

Be sure to hop all the way around to all the stops so you can see all the great alternative projects made with this fun kit by this talented group.

Here’s what I did:

Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:

• blue card from the kit scored 1/4″ from one end and cut 1/4″ from the other end
• same blue card scored 1/4″ from the bottom, then trimmed according to the diagram below
• Whisper White CS layer cut to 3-1/2″ x 4-7/8″
• Pacific Point CS layer cut to 3-1/4″ x 4-5/8″
• Pacific Point CS layer cut to 2″ x 4″

Stamped with the World’s Greatest stamp set:

• round ribbon in Pacific Point ink onto one of the larger white die cut circles
• long ribbon in Pacific Point ink onto one of the larger white die cut rectangles
• “You’re the BEST” in Pacific Point ink onto one of the smaller white die cut circles
• “#1” in Versamark ink onto one of the smaller white die cut circles, then heat embossed in gold

Cut using the Layering Circle Dies:

• a scrap of Gold Foil Sheet
• OR you could ink the edges of one of the large blue round die cuts from the kit in Versamark ink and heat emboss in gold

Assembled the card:

• burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
• Whisper White CS layer glued onto the front of the card base
• larger Pacific Point CS layer glued onto the Whisper White CS layer
• piece of ribbon folded in half and adhered onto a yellow die cut layer, folding the ends over the top of the layer, using Stampin’ Seal 
• heat embossed small circle adhered onto a gold circle using Stampin’ Seal
• gold circle adhered onto the large round white die cut, centered on the stamped ribbon, using Stampin’ Seal
• large round white die cut adhered onto the gold die cut circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals
• gold circle adhered onto the yellow die cut layer, over the fold in the ribbon, using Stampin’ Dimensionals

Assembled the bag:

• burnished the folds in the card base with a Bone Folder
• 1/4″ tabs folded in and glued onto the inside of the opposite side of the card base, to form the bag
• small stamped circle adhered onto a gold circle using Stampin’ Seal
• gold circle adhered onto the large white rectangle, just under the stamped ribbon, using Stampin’ Seal
• white rectangle glued onto the smaller Pacific Point CS layer
• Pacific Point CS layer glued onto a yellow die cut layer
• yellow die cut layer adhered onto the front of the bag using Stampin’ Dimensionals
• The yellow tissue paper I used is from the June 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit, called Box of Sunshine.
