Cards of Hope With The Along The Way Collection

Hi Pebbles Friends!

Amanda here, and today I am sharing something that’s a little close to my heart; raising cancer awareness & spreading hope. These days cancer is all too well known, with most of us being affected either with the disease, or having a friend or family member suffering. It is a thing of great despair & darkness.

So let’s bring some light to those who need it most, by creating cards of Hope!

Infact, why not host a little ‘Coffee, Cake & Create’ card making session to raise money for cancer awareness? Together we can all make a difference!

Here are my cards of hope with the beautiful Along The Way collection…..

Aren’t they beautiful?!

Here’s how to recreate them……

Start by trimming pattern paper Blooms into two sections,  10″ x 7″ and 10″ x  5″. Score down the center, and fold to create 2 card bases, as shown above. One card is a larger 5″ x 7″ size, and the other is cute 5″ square card. 

Next, trim the reverse side of pattern paper Window Box to 4 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ and 4 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ and adhere to the card fronts. Cut a 4 1/2″ x 3″ strip of pattern paper Bird Seed and attach to the Window Box base of the larger card. Glue doilies to the card centers.

Select a tag or two from the Along The Way Tags pk, and embellish with a Phrase Sticker or Ephemera sentiment.

To add dimension and interest, build up your card layers with foam mounted ephemera.

Add a few stickers, & a lil more ephemera!

Looking good!

Use the pretty laurel leaves from the Kacie Thickers to add another texture, & element of interest.

Apply a sentiment at the card base with the gorgeous gold foil Anne Thickers. 

For finishing touches add a coordinating bow, and some sequins. Simple, but oh so elegant!

Cards of Hope only take a few minutes to create, but their thoughtfulness will last for months. Let’s spread the hope, and support our community! I hope my cards have inspired you to get creating and maybe even raise a little money towards cancer awareness too!

The Along The Way collection is really beautiful, and just perfect for all those special projects.

Thanks so much for visiting,

Happy Arty Days, Amanda xo

Baby Boy and Girl Cards

Hello Pebbles friends and fans, Becki here to share a set of baby boy and girl cards that I created using the Lullaby collection. I love making cards! Creating cards for new babies is one of my favorite things to do. Of course, when I need to create a card for a new mom or a new baby, I reach for the Lullaby collection. This collection has everything you need (and more!) for creating cards, invitations, baby books and even home decor.

These cards came together so easily with some patterned paper and a few die cuts. To make the creative process easier, I used the same basic design for both cards. Both cards have a small animal die cut, the “Love You” banner sentiment and a few flower die cuts. To give the cards texture and a little bit of dimension, I added foam adhesive behind some of the die cuts and a white bow tied with white crochet thread to the little animals. On both of the cards, there are two embellishment clusters (but they are each a little bit different). 

The blue baby boy card has an embellishment cluster on both sides of the sentiment. The little white bow is tied and adhered around the neck of the deer. 

On the pink baby girl card, I added an additional embellishment cluster below the grey bunny die cut. To add a little bit of interest to the card, I tucked the flower die cut underneath the front of the bunny die cut. Both die cuts are adhered with dimensional adhesive.

While I don’t know of any baby gifts that I’ll be giving in the foreseeable future, I’m always glad to have cards on hand for those moments when I do need a quick gift. Whether or not you’re in need of a baby card, you’ll love creating with the Lullaby collection. Thank you for stopping by the Pebbles blog today. I’ll see you again soon! Happy crafting!
