Hi! Renee here to share some quick gift card holders using the Jen Hadfield Heart Of Home collection.

You know, sometimes you just want to give a gift card!  These quick gift card holders are perfect for any occasion.  Depending on the occasion, it will not matter how big or small the gift card amount is; it will look too cute not to open and enjoy!

I used my We R Memory Keepers 123 Punch Board to create 3″ x 4″ envelopes from the Landscaped, Pretty Peony, Gatherings, Painted Dots, Buffalo Check, and Tapestry pattern papers.

No adhesive was added except to attach the gift card inside the envelope.

The From Me to You pattern paper has lots of cut apart tags that are absolutely beautiful all on their own (though I did add a few Stickers and sequins to embellish them).

All that was left to do was to add some ribbon to attach the tags to the envelopes.  They look so cute and are simple to open with a pull of the ribbon.

Celebrate With Happy Hooray Mini Birthday Cards

Leave a Comment

Hello Pebbles friends! It’s Monique here with you today sharing the many birthday cards I created with the fabulous new Happy Hooray collection.

I was thrilled when I received this collection! I’m a huge fan of bright colors and cute designs. I also love creating birthday layouts and cards.

For today’s blog post, I created 18 mini birthday cards in one afternoon. I have created a collection of mini cards before, using the beautiful Heart of Home collection and often wished I had birthday cards as well. When I saw this collection, I knew straight away what I was going to create.

All I needed to create these Happy Hooray Mini Birthday Cards was the sheet of patterned paper called “Party Time” and cardstock pieces from the American Crafts “Primaries” textured cardstock pack.

I started by cutting apart all the images and selecting eighteen of them.  Once that was done, I matted them on a piece of cardstock.

I stitched all the sides using my sewing machine before adhering them on a cardstock cardbase.

The squares measure 5 cm x 5 cm and the finished (square) cards measure approx. 6.5 cm x 6.5 cm. The rectangular images measure twice the size of the squares, so they are 5 cm x 10 cm and the finished cards measure approx. 6.5 cm x 12 cm. As the cards are so small, I decided against adding any more embellishments.

The Happy Hooray Mini Birthday Cards can be used to accent gifts or gift boxes, flowers or potted plants, but can (of course!) be used to send in an envelope by mail as well. I also plan to put the “you’re special” and “yay you” mini cards in my kids’ lunch boxes one day so they’ll find them during their lunch breaks. I’m sure they’ll love them!

When my stash of Happy Hooray Mini Birthday Cards was ready, I used the We R Memory Keepers Shadow Box Clip Frame again to showcase them.  I also added two Happy Hooray Cake Toppers for fun. Doesn’t it look festive?!

I “only” used eighteen of the images of the “Party Time” sheet, but I definitely plan on using the other nine images to create mini cards as well!

Thank you so much for stopping by our blog!  The Happy Hooray collection is SO close to being in your hands! I can’t wait for you to get your turn to create!

Hello everyone, it’s Eva again on the blog, bringing you a quick tutorial for a birthday banner using the lovely new Happy Hooray line (soon to be in stores!).

@evapizarrov shows you hot to create a quick birthday banner with @pebblesinc newst line #HappyHorray and the #bannerpunchboard by @wermemorykeeper

This line is everything you need for your celebrations—the designs are fun and colorful and ideal for both kid and adult birthday parties. My favorite item from the line is the Cake Topper; love it!

Today I wanted to show you how to make a quick Birthday Banner.

To Begin:

Start by cutting eight 6″x4″ squares. Next, use your banner punch board to trim a triangle on the bottom.

After that, cut some 3×4 images from the Birthday Wishes Patterned Paper and add it to your banner, along with some die cut shapes.

Keeping it all together:

To keep your banner together with ease, use a sewing machine. The Stitch Happy is perfect because you can use thick thread!

The Embellishments:

After you have sewn your banner, decorate it using some chipboard stickers.

As a final touch add some ribbon to the edges of each flag.

Birthday Cards featuring Girl Squad

Hello Pebbles Friends!  It’s Renee here today to share a couple of birthday cards using the Girl Squad collection.  I created these birthday cards to celebrate some summer birthdays for two of my family members.  I love how cute and fun this collection is for any age.  I created one card for my young niece and the other for my older sister.

Create fun celebration cards for any age with these Birthday Cards by @reneezwirek using the #GirlSquad collection by @pebblesinc

Let’s get started:

Both of these cards start with a 6″ x 11″ piece of white cardstock.  I folded the cards in half and used a scalloped heart Knock Outs punch along the bottom edge.

I added Washi Tape along the bottom of my cards.

The 6 x 6 Paper Pad is great for card making.  I trimmed two of the gold foiled patterns to 4 ½” x 5 ¾” and added them just above the washi tape.

Card #1:

For the card for my niece, I used a scalloped Knock Outs punch on a 2 ½” x 5 ¾” piece of white cardstock.  I added a 1 ½” x 5 ¾” strip of ice cream cones pattern paper to the center of the scalloped white cardstock and placed it off to the side.

Time to Embellish:

First, I wanted to add my card sentiment.  I used my ruler to center the “celebrate” Thicker sticker along the bottom of the card.  I added a “let’s go” Sticker along the top corner of the Thicker sticker.

To add interest to the flag sticker, I used the Magnetic Staple Board to add pink staples to the flag.

I added the scalloped ice cream cones paper strip above my card sentiment.

I decorated this card with puppy and kitty Stickers, a trimmed little girl face from the 6″ x 6″ Paper Pad, and a number “4” for the age we are celebrating.  It’s adorable!

Card #2:

For the card for my sister, I added a gold-foiled sentiment sticker in the center of the pattern paper.

I fussy cut flowers from the Go Girl pattern paper and added them along the center of the card.

Puffy Stickers finish off the card.  So fun and cute!
