We want to kick this day off with a super happy Halloween wish for you and yours! We’ve had so very much fun celebrating the Thirty-One collection with you this month.



Be sure to bookmark our Pebbles Thirty-One collection projects for future crafting!

Today we’re joined by Design Team Member Eva Pizarro, who’s from Brazil. Her family doesn’t celebrate Halloween the way we do here in the U.S., so she’s actually going to show how you can take the basics from the Thirty-One collection them and extend them into regular use with a Thirty-One mini album. 


I have been wanting to create a black and white mini album for a while and the Thirty-one collection was perfect for my project. 

The designs are very versatile and you can use the collection for your Halloween and everyday projects. They are perfect for backgrounds as well!
To do this mini I used all black and white supplies and the only color was given by colored thickers from the Basics collection and my photos.

What’s your favorite holiday to scrapbook? So many of our fans and friends have told us Halloween is a favorite, along with Christmas! 

Today we’re featuring another Halloween scrapbook layout. This adorable wizard layout was put together by Design Team Member Kim Jeffress.


Last year my youngest who was three at the time looked soooo cute in his little wizard out fit. I couldn’t help but make a layout just about him.
I used one of the black and white spot bags as a photo mat and laso a place to house the cute sticker embellishments. I cut some bamboo skewers down and adhered the stickers to the top of the skewer. I then added some foam tape to the back of them and popped them into the baggie for a cute effect.

Jacks x 5 Halloween Scrapbook Layout

With Halloween right around the corner, we’re starting to plan out scrapbook layouts and two page spreads. This week, we will be showing you a few of our favorite ways to incorporate Halloween themed papers into your scrapbook layouts. 

Today’s Jacks x 5 Halloween scrapbook layout was put together by Design Team Member Laura Craigie. 

Halloween is perhaps one of my most favorite things to scrap, and the Thirty-One collection is just perfect.  

I started the page by adhering strips of patterned paper to an orange cardstock base.  I wanted to keep the papers simple since I knew I was going to go a bit crazier on the embellishments.


I made the title of the page with glitter Thickers, and grounded it to the page with a purple banner tail I free hand cut with paper from the Basics line.


To give the page added interest and dimension I added lots of the stickers I used on the page with foam adhesive instead of just sticking them down.  I also added some glitter glue to some stickers for another fun effect.

Supplies:
Basics Purple Mini Dot (751392)
Thirty-One Enchanted (732299)
Thirty-One Witching Hour (732301)
Thirty-One Glitter Foam Thickers (732304)
Thirty-One Cardstock Stickers Phrase & Accent (732304)
Thirty-One Cardstock Stickers Chalkboard Labels (732305)

Saturday Share: From Me to You

Welcome to another week of Saturday Share! This week before you link up your own photo pocket page scrapbooking posts and images, Pebbles Design Team Member Tiffany Hood is sharing a few fun pages of her own…

This week I decided to do my Project Life layout using Pebbles beautiful new “From Me To You” collection. I do Project Life by event, not by week, and this layout is about my son’s first day of first grade. 

If you have divided page protectors, you can make inserts out of the paper you have in your collection. 

I added some Thickers, twine, chipboard, stickers, and other embellishments to add to my design. 

Supplies:

We’d love to see how you’re completing your memory keeping pages. If you have a traditional or scrapbook or photo pocket page style layout to share, please link-up!
