Kitchen Card

May

Hey everyone, Michelle here today with a new project to share using a variety of Jen Hadfield collections. I made this card for my mom using bits and pieces from 3 different collections (Chasing Adventure, Warm & Cozy, & Along the Way).

This was such a fun card to make. I used a cut file from Lori Whitlock. It turned out so cute, I gave it to my mom for Mother’s Day!

I was inspired by all the pretty photos Jen posts on her Instagram account. I want that wallpaper in my house!

These little photo frames from the Along the Way collection were just perfect for this!

All Occasion Cards with Lovely Moments

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia back today with an all occasion card idea for you using the Lovely Moments collection. This time of year I need birthday cards, sympathy cards, get well cards, graduation cards, shower cards, and wedding cards. This card design could be used for all of these occasions. Just change out the sentiment.

The folded flower on these cards has a quilted look that caught my eye. Aren’t they gorgeous! This is a card you can make with a circle punch or circle cutter.

Let me show you how you can make one too….

Step 1. Punch or cut 8 – 2″ circles and 1 – 3″ circle. You will see both sides of the scrapbook paper, so choose a paper where the two sides coordinate well together. I prefer to use a smaller floral print as well. This allows you to see the flowers after folding.

Step 2. Fold each of the 2″ circles in half, then in half again.

Step 3. Fold just the top layer of paper down. Turn over and repeat on the other side. It should look like this…

Step 4. Unfold the circles except for the last fold.

Step 5. With the folded side face down (see green circle above), take the folded sides and bring to the middle crease. It should look like this. Repeat for all 8 circles.

Step 6. Apply some glue to the middle of your 3″ circle. Start laying your folded circle pieces down leaving a slight gap between.

If you want a very flat flower, press in a book for a while. I like a little dimension though, so I left my flower as is. Add a button or a brad in the center of your flower. Now you can add to a card base along with a sentiment. Make your own card base using pattern papers or use a ready made card from the Lovely Moments card box.

I love how these turned out. They are so pretty with the Lovely Moments pattern papers. I hope you give this a try yourself.

Supplies:
Lovely Moments 12×12 Patterned Paper Pad

Invitation and Variation

Hello Pebbles friends! It’s Wendy Sue here today, sharing an invitation…and a variation. You see, my assignment was to create an invitation, which is always so much fun, but at the same time, it felt a little weird since we’re all social distancing right now, so we aren’t really in need of invitations. SO…I created a cute invitation with the “Hey! Hello!” collection, and then I created a variation of this card that it is more appropriate for using right now, “You got this!” Here’s a look at the invitation:

"Hey Hello" Invitation and Variation by Wendy Sue Anderson for @PebblesInc.

I just love the cute hedgehog on the background patterned paper and that little raccoon is absolutely darling! I chose to use mostly black and white so the bits of color would really pop! Here’s the variation on the invitation:

And just to show you how easy this card is, I’m sharing a quick photo tutorial, so please, follow along!! Here are the items you’ll need:

Start by placing the hedgehog paper on the card base.

The next step is optional, but i think it adds a really special touch. Use a sewing machine and white thread to stitch around the square piece.

Place the square piece on the card, about 1″ from the bottom.

Add the piece cut from one of the branding strips:

Add the other patterned paper strip directly above the branding strip:

Next, add the sticker greeting – I love these stickers, the sentiments are perfect, the font is classic, and they are super sticky!

Add foam adhesive squares to the back of the critter. You can use the printed die-cut OR the sticker! Place him on the card front.

Complete the card by placing the two cute heart stickers in the corner of the stitched square. I used foam adhesive squares behind one of the hearts.

See how easy that was! Now you can make a dozen with all kinds of different sentiments. Some for now (that you can mail out to friends) and some for later (to be hand delivered and enjoyed when it’s safe to do so)!

Have you been making cards? We’d love to see what you’ve been up to!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hey everyone, Michelle here today with a new project to share using the Fun & Sun collection. This collection has so many fun ephemera pieces, I knew I wanted to make something that would let me use a lot of them. I started off these invites with a card base from Lori Whitlock.

Once I had the base cut out, I just needed to choose some fun papers to create the background. I love all the bright and bold colors in this collection!

I then just choose some fun ephemera and layered them adding some pop dots on a few of them.

Thanks for stopping by!

Girly cards with the Hey Hello collection

Hello crafty friends, it’s Lucile! Today I find you for a new project! I really wanted to send cards to my friends and I found the Hey Hello collection perfect for this project! I love the women I find them too cute. I really wanted to use them to make my cards.

To make my cards, I cut two 15 x 20 cm white papers that I folded in half.

For my first card, I used a paper with words and pastel colors. I love this paper and I was looking forward to using it! Then I cut flowers from two different papers from the collection. Drawn flowers and colorful flowers.

For the composition of my card, I started by creating an angle with my flowers at the bottom of my card. I also put flowers in the opposite corner at the top of my card. Then I cut the two women in a paper collection and I stuck with 3D foam to add volume. Finally, I added a label with my message.

For my second card, I used the same elements: drawn flowers, colored flowers and a woman. I started by cutting my flowers in half to create two lines of flowers. These flowers define a frame in my card.

I cut my wife in a paper from the collection, I stuck with 3D foam. Then I added labels to write down my message. Finally, I stuck a sticker with golden foliage patterns.
I hope you liked these two girly cards with the Hey Hello collection from Pebbles, see you soon for a new creation!
