Happy Birthday Cards

Hi, Renee here today to share some lovely Happy Birthday cards using the very lovely Tealightful collection.  Since I’m celebrating my own birthday today, I thought it only fitting to create a few Happy Birthday cards.  I love creating cards with a bit of whimsy.  These cards are perfect for spring or summertime birthdays and great for any age!

I started my Happy Birthday cards by first Zazz!-ing up these adorable Die-Cuts and making them sparkle.  They dried pretty quickly.

  1. I created standard A6 cards which measure 4 ½” x 6 ¼”.  I trimmed the Teacups, Delicate Lace, and Floral Patchwork pattern papers to 4 ¼” x 6″ and adhered them to the card bases.  I cut out a 3″ circle window in each card using a template and trimmer from my stash of tools.
  2. I fussy cut leaves from the Lovely Lilacs pattern paper and adhered them around the windows of each card.  I also added pretty floral Puffy Stickers among the fussy cut leaves.
  3. I used the Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Styleboard Die Set to add pretty bows to embellish each card.
  4. I centered and adhered the adorable Die-Cuts into each card window using Foam Dots.
  5. I centered and added the “Happy Birthday” Rub-Ons for my sentiments.

Here are close-up photos of each of the Happy Birthday cards.  I LOVE the adorable “animals in the teacups” Die-Cuts.  I cannot get over how adorable they are!  I love the sweet sparkle added to each of the die-cuts using the Icicle ZAZZ! Glitter Glue.  For this card, I used the Graceful Swans pattern paper for the bow embellishment.  Love how quick and easy it is to add the rub-ons for the sentiments.

For this card, I used the Fresh Picked pattern paper for the bow embellishment.  I changed up the rub-ons from black to gold on this card.  I just thought the gold would look pretty with the blue.  And, it did!

A Tealightful Layout

Hi Pebbles friends, it’s Monique here sharing a “tea with friends” layout using the fabulous Tealightful collection. Last year my daughter and I went over to the UK to spend a few days sight seeing and to meet up with friends in London. They had booked us an afternoon tea in a delightful little bakery in Hammersmith where they served some delicious award winning cupcakes. This photo of the four of us just had to be scrapped, but until now I hadn’t found the right collection. And then Pebbles came with the Tealightful collection! It couldn’t have been more perfect! Here’s what I created for today:

I started my layout by selecting all the tea related die-cuts. Look how many there are to choose from!

I selected a few to create a little cluster at the bottom of my page. My very favorite die-cuts are the teacups with the little critters in them. Aren’t they adorable?!

For the right side of my photo I chose another animal in a teacup, but also a few non-tea related die-cuts because I felt that especially the brown color of the tree trunk was a nice touch to add to all the pastel colors of the rest of the page.

Next I selected a few papers to go with my photo, this was easy as almost all the papers were perfect! I definitely wanted to use that awesome paper with the macarons (Delicate Lace) on it! From the same paper but the other side, I cut a title and a border of teapots using my Silhouette. To create the border on the yellow paper (Floral Patchwork) I used one of my border punches.

Last but not least I added a few of the puffy stickers and the word stickers and a few strips of journaling and I was done! Hope you like it!

Baby Boy Lullaby Layout

Hello Friends! It’s Leanne here today and I am excited to share with you a layout from the Lullaby collection. I have focused on the traditional boy colours and have teamed them up with lots of floral, fussy cutting.

Document all your new born photos with the stunning new #lullabycollection from @PebblesInc and as shared by @leanne_allinson.

This collection is so beautiful with its subtle tones and gentle patterns. A perfect combination to document photos of newborns sleeping.

Within the Lullaby collection, the sweet ephemera die cuts quite captured my attention. I’ve layered them in three main clusters on my page to create a visual triangle.

In each cluster, I have added a bright yellow star to help draw the eye across the page.

I’ve then built up layers of patterned paper and cardstock to create a “bed” for my photo to rest on.

Among these layers I have trimmed down a 3×4 cut apart from the Baby Boy Quotes paper. Not only does the colour work with complimenting the photo, but the white space around the quote allows the eye to rest in an otherwise busy space. The height of the 3×4 card also creates a point of interest with its juxtaposition against the other papers which all lie in the same direction. For me, the 3×4 card subtly completes the “bed” by becoming the baby blanket lying on top of the layers.

The fussy cutting is used on this layout as a way to emphasis little details. I have used Lullaby Baby Boy Blossoms and cut out individual leaves and flowers as needed. When adhering them to the page, I applied a wet adhesive to the base of the stems, allowing the leaf or flower to lift up. Other elements, either die-cuts or fussy cut flowers, have been mounted on to foam tape for extra dimension.

Thanks for visiting today. I hope this collection has inspired you to document any newborn photos you have of your own children or those of friends. The newborn in this photo turns eight this year, but I am so glad to have gone into my archives to document the passage of time between now and then.

Hello, friends.  Heather Leopard is here with a special delivery today…a quick and easy DIY Baby room decor item, perfect for a baby’s room. It can also double as a gift wrap decor that can then later be used in the nursery.

DIY Baby Room Decor by @HeatherLeopard using the #Lullaby collection by @pebblesinc #baby

Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

  • Embroidery Hoop
  • 12×12 patterned paper
  • die cut embellishments
  • Stickers
  • Liquid adhesive or glue dots
  • foam squares
  • sewing machine

The first thing you’ll do is cut a circle just a bit larger than the inside of the embroidery hoop.  I simply took the hoop apart and traced along the outside. Once cut, attach to the back of the hoop. Trust me, this is the easiest route and also helps add dimension to the project.

Next, choose a few die cuts to make a banner.

Stitch them together using a sewing machine.

Position them across the top of the hoop.  Adhere the edges to the hoop.  Add foam dots to the back of the die cuts that are in the middle of the hoop.

Lastly, add the babies name to the open area of the hoop and embellish around the name as well as around the hoop to your liking. Now you have the perfect DIY baby room decor for your sweet bundle of joy!
