Life with the along the way collection from Guest Designer, Laurie!

Hello Pebbles Friends and Fans, my name is Laurie! I am so very happy to be a guest designer for Pebbles in the month of November. I was given the opportunity to work with the Along the Way collection by Jen Hadfield and I was so excited to open this beautiful box of goodies! I love the color tones of Jen’s collections and could not wait to dig in and start layering all of the beautiful pieces!
For my first project, I created a traditional 12×12 scrapbook layout. One of my favorite things about Jen’s collections is that they are family-oriented. I’d been waiting on the perfect collection to document some pictures of my girls and this is the collection!

I chose to use a grid design for this page so that I could showcase all of the beautiful embellishments and gorgeous prints. I used 3×4 photos and added some simple layers behind them as well as a simple cluster along with the title. The “happy” in the title is from the phrase Thickers and the girls are using the alpha included in this collection. I love the gold foil. It is a bit muted and the perfect hue.

For the notebook paper layer, I cut a piece of one of the papers into a 3×4 card.  I then punched three holes down the left edge so that it looks like a tiny piece of notebook paper. It is so cute!

For the other embellishment cluster, I used one of the cut-apart tags and layered a couple of patterned papers underneath.  I also used two of the gold-foiled floral pieces from the ephemera pack. Finally, I fussy cut some of the butterflies and dragonflies from patterned paper and used them on foam dots to give a little dimension.

I printed my photos in black and white to allow the colors of this collection to stand alone – they really are gorgeous!

I couldn’t stop at one project…so here is one more! After all, when I saw this collection I knew I also had to use it to document our family photos from a couple of years ago.

I created a simple one ring mini album, using the 3×4 cut apart cards and the tag pack as my base. I printed all of my photos as 3″x4″ and then arranged them so that I had one picture and one title card for each “page”.

This hello friend tag had a “to” and “from” section at the bottom…so I just covered it up using a branding strip and one of the pink word stickers from the collection. I thought this tag would be sweet to go opposite from the picture of my girls. They are besties!

I also loved the “I feel pretty. oh so pretty” parts of this collection; they were perfect to document the solo photos of the girls!

Happy Day Layout With Amanda & Along The Way!

Leave a Comment

Hi Pebbles Friends!

Amanda here, & today I am sharing a really beautiful layout with our adorable Along The Way collection.

With so many pretty patterns and such a delightful color scheme, it’s an absolute joy to memory keep with! And this lovely layout is both effective and super easy to recreate at home! But enough chatter, here’s my lovely page….

“Happy Day”

Oh so pretty, indeed! Clean, & contemporary design with a soft, feminine twist!

Here’s how to recreate this layout….

Start by adhering 5 tags from the Along The Way Tags pk to the right hand side of white 12″ cardstock, as shown above. I adore this sweet pack of tags and just had to feature some of them in my layouts!

Next, trim the reverse side of pattern paper Flutter (blue with polka dots print) to 3 1/4″ x 12″ and attach to the right hand side, being sure to cover the prints on the Tags.  Then, trim Flutter to 2 3/4″ x 12″, mount with foam tape and attach from the right hand side also. This creates a raised paper overlay onto the polka dots print, and looks so impressive! A great point of interest to the right side of the layout, and such a wonderful way to showcase that divine Flutter paper!

Time to create the photo cluster….

Trim the reverse side of pattern paper Flutter to 4″ x 3″, and then trim the reverse side of Window Box to 4 1/2″ x 3 1/4″ and glue them together. Attach another of the Tags beneath the paper layers, as shown above. Glue your smaller size photo (mine was 2″ 2 1/2″ size) & embellish with an Ephemera sentiment. I applied foam dots to the Ephemera to make sure it was easy to see against the pattern papers.

Align this photo cluster beside the center Tag on the layout, and tape into position.

Tuck a couple of Ephemera leaves into the photo cluster. Embellish over the cluster with the pretty girl Ephemera. Again, I used foam dots to ensure this adornment was easily identified.

Embellish with butterflies! I used two of the 6″ x 12″ Cardstock Stickers butterflies, as well as that gorgeous Dimensional Sticker one! So pretty!

Add a title with the gold foil Katherine Thickers, and a few tiny spots of journaling with Phrase Stickers.

Tuck a floral sticker beneath the right hand corner of the photo, and add the extra pretty girl Cardstock Sticker. For finishing touches, add the smile always heart Cardstock Sticker, a baker’s twine bow to the photo cluster tag and a scattering of pastel pink sequins.

 

Such a lovely page to document the oh so pretty person in your life!

I hope I have inspired you to get creating with the beautiful Along The Way collection!

Thanks so much for visiting,

Happy Arty Days, Amanda xo

Quick and Easy Mini Book with Terhi

Hello sweet friends! Terhi Koskinen here again sharing colorful ‘Along the Way’ inspiration to your day! I have created super simple, but yet quite detailed mini book to capture our summer memories. The mini book is very easy to create, so you can just follow next steps and create yours too!

Step 1: There are couple ways to collect tags to create the pages for the mini book. You can either use the Along the Way Cardstock Tags or patterned paper ‘For My Friend’ from the same line. If you use the paper, back them with white yardstick to make them stronger.
I used both tags and cut the Along the Way Cardstock Tags slightly shorter to match the patterned paper ones.

Step 2: Cut your favorite flowers from Along the Way patterned paper ‘Flower Market’ and choose the photographs you want to use. At this point I had about twenty tags ready to go, but in the end they all didn’t make it to the book as otherwise the book would have been way too thick.

Step 3: Collect also your favorite ephemera from this gorgeous line. Then simply attach photos to some tags, and ephemera to others. Add also at least one fussy cut flower to each page, as this makes the mini book look completed.

To the cover I also attached one of the sweet Along the Way Layered Stickers. Next you will see some of the pages from inside, and other details.

  

Last detail to make the mini book look as I wanted, I braided some thread and hang it to the metal ring which holds the book together. It’s a small thing to do, but makes such big difference.

Hope you like mini books as much as I! Grab your tags and start playing!

Thank You Card Set

Hi there!  It’s the thanksgiving season, but there’s never a single season that should be devoted to “thanks” giving! I whipped up a quick and easy thank you card set featuring the “Along The Way” collection to share with you today!

Thank you card set by Wendy Sue Anderson featuring the "Along The Way" collection by @PebblesInc.

Start by choosing several patterned papers and use a digital die-cutting machine to cut out the word “thanks” from each paper.

Mix and Match the letters:

Glue the letters on to a strip of cardstock:

Next, choose some of the more neutral papers to use for backgrounds, along with the fun little girl paper. You’ll also want to cut a tear strip from one of the papers to add to the card front.

Start by adhering the little girl paper to the black and white neutral background:

Add the “thanks” strip directly above the cute girls:

Now place the piece of tear strip below the “thanks” strip:

Use a 1/16″ circle punch to punch little notches on either side of the tear strip:

Now tie the colored jute into a bow near the letter “K.”

Now attach the entire piece to a blank card:

Hello everyone! Eva Pizarro on the blog today sharing a Thank You Card Trio made with the lovely Along the Way line from Pebbles.

Use your favorite items from the Along the Way line from @pebblesinc to create this lovely Thank You Card Trio. pc:@evapizarrov #pebblesinc #madewithpebbles

The designs from this collection are feminine and perfect for a friendship or thank you card. My favorites are the little girls and the florals so I made three cards to highlight them. The cards are very different and one of them has a little surprise!

The first card I made is this one with the big tag, It was really simple, I just layered my favorite patterned papers and added this cute card that included the Thank You sentiment.

For this second card, I included the little girls and that cute flag with flowers. I added some dimension to the card with 3d dots, they really made the design stand out!

And did you noticed that Black and white background paper? I think it is one of my favorite from the collection!

This last card has a little surprise because when you pull the sentiment the little girl runs to hug her friend! how cool is that? It is really easy to make and I am sure anyone would be happy to receive this card!

Use your favorite items from the Along the Way line from @pebblesinc to create this lovely Thank You Card Trio. pc:@evapizarrov #pebblesinc #madewithpebbles

Start by cutting a rectangle on your card. The rectangle needs to be a little shorter than then sentiment you are going to pull.

Choose a die cut that is going to move along the edge of the card. For this example, I chose this cute floral cup.

Use your favorite items from the Along the Way line from @pebblesinc to create this lovely Thank You Card Trio. pc:@evapizarrov #pebblesinc #madewithpebbles

Place 3d strips on the edges of the rectangle making sure the strip with the message fits perfectly, not too loose and not too tight.

Cut the strip of paper to the desired length and place some 3d dots on the edge. These dots are going to hold the floral cup and are going to be your stops so the strip doesn’t get out fo the card.

Use your favorite items from the Along the Way line from @pebblesinc to create this lovely Thank You Card Trio. pc:@evapizarrov #pebblesinc #madewithpebbles

Next, glue a small piece of acetate to the 3d dots and the little cup on top. To cover the mechanism put some embellishments on top making sure you don’t glue anything on the rectangle.

Use your favorite items from the Along the Way line from @pebblesinc to create this lovely Thank You Card Trio. pc:@evapizarrov #pebblesinc #madewithpebbles

When you pull the strip of paper the cup moves all the way to the other edge of the card! How pretty is that!

Now all you need to do is attach that white cardstock piece to the base of your card!

Use your favorite items from the Along the Way line from @pebblesinc to create this lovely Thank You Card Trio. pc:@evapizarrov #pebblesinc #madewithpebbles

And here is the card that I made, I created a scene and added the sentiment “many thanks” to the strip of paper.
