“Oh how I love the Hip Hip Hooray collection!  The bright colors and fun patterns – it is just perfect in so many ways.  For this layout I decided to scrap a photo of my sweet niece Gia.  I cut the circle border using my Silhouette and backed it with lots of different patterns from the collection.  I added different embellishments here and there, used the fantastic glitter letters to spell out my title, and finished everything off with a sprinkling of sequin candy dots (my new love!).”  – Lynn Ghahary, Pebbles Design Team Member

“I must confess that Hip Hip Hooray is my favorite Pebbles release this time around. The bright colors, fabulous embellishments and bold patterns just make my scrapping time sing! I had a blast using this photo of Clara’s sixteenth birthday party. Our Sequin Candy Dots could not be better for a touch of confetti and the little badge slides out to reveal my journaling strip. I just know you will love using Hip Hip Hooray collection, too.” – Kim Kesti, Pebbles Design Team Member

“One of my favorite things about Pebbles is that the collections are so versatile!  The Hip Hip Hooray collection is intended to be used for a birthday/party/celebration themed project, but I thought it would work just as well for this page about my boys playing at a corn maze playground.  The colors are fun and bright and happy and match the feeling of the photos.  Yay for versatility!!”  – Wendy Sue Anderson, Pebbles Design Team Member

“The sunny, happy colors of Hip Hip Hooray inspired me to make a sun-shaped element on my page and focus on a photo from a fun summer day. The banner stickers, cut apart, easily subbed as sun rays and stitched down, added a little dimension to the page. I layered the letter stickers on top of that. Banner strips cut from the Good Times patterned paper frame my page with some narrow strips of Celebration. The confetti is made from the negative shapes of the die cut tag and some Sequin Candy Dots. I can think of a thousand uses for this bright & happy line!”  – Valerie Mangan, Pebbles Design Team Member

“Last year, my twin girls received a turtle sandbox for their 2nd birthday. It was a gift that they absolutely loved so I knew that I wanted to create a layout only about it. I love the bright, happy, fun colors in Hip Hip Hooray and selected several patterns to make a grid design. I also punched starbursts out of the same patterned paper to create a tone-on-tone effect. I used a little blue and white twine for my banner and highlighted several pieces with the sequin candy dots.”  – Jill Cornell, Pebbles Design Team Member

“This new birthday line is so fun! It’s full of great colors perfect for boy and girl birthdays. It’s also great for birthdays of all ages! 🙂 For instance I used this line to scrap a page about a little birthday party my husband and I threw for his brother (my brother-in-law) on his 22nd birthday. I created a collage of the pictures I wanted to scrap and then adhered it to the background cardstock. Then I used the fun Hip Hip Hooray paper and embellishments to decorate around the collage! Thanks for looking!”  – Gretchen McElveen, Pebbles Design Team Member

“Hip Hip Hooray is my favourite of the new Pebbles collections, despite me not usually being so keen on specifically themed lines. The colours in this collection are so vibrant and summery, it’s easy to crate layouts and other projects that are non-birthday themed, like this layout I’ve created about my friend’s daughters’ bedtime reading habits. I can definitely see myself creating all kinds of pages with this line – it’s so versatile!”  – Stephanie Baxter, Pebbles Design Team Member

All this week on the Pebbles blog we’ll be focusing on one of our brand new collections Hip Hip Hooray.  Hip Hip Hooray is bursting with bright, bold colors and designs that are perfect for all your birthday paper crafting needs, from layouts and cards, to decorations, favors and invitations.

“I absolutely love this new collection by Pebbles! The vibrant colors and patterns are not only perfect for any birthday themed layout but also for everyday layouts. Today I decided to focus on the birthday theme and created this layout of my oldest daughter at her last birthday. I decided to mimic the Confetti patter paper and added confetti pockets on this layout. These are fairly easy to create using vellum paper, a circle punch and a sewing machine, I like the subtle accent they bring to my layout.”  – Mel Blackburn, Pebbles Design Team Member

“I created a kids birthday card set with the new Hip Hip Hooray collection.  I love the bright colors and fun patterns.  The inspiration for these cards was the banner kit and dimensional circles.  They added just the touch of dimension that I was looking for and are sure to brighten someone’s special day.”  – Aphra Bolyer, Pebbles Design Team Member
