Sun And Fun Mini Album

24
Apr
Leave a Comment

Hello Pebbles friends, Marcia here today. I thought I would get a jump start on a Summer mini album now when I have time versus in the summer when (hopefully) things are back to normal. The Sun and Fun collection is awesome for recording all kinds of summer activities from pool parties to camping to just enjoying summer foods. I decided on a beach ball shaped mini album. All the pages are circles so even without an electronic cutting machine you could recreate this pretty easily.

I embellished my mini album with the die cut ephemera icons and phrases, cut paper strips, and the cut apart 3″ x 4″ pocket journal cards.

Here are the inside pages. It was fun coordinating the pattern papers. I used a mixture of 2″ x 3″ photo mats and 3″ x 4″ photo mats. This will make it easy using my photo editing software to print multiple photos on 4″ x 6″ photo paper.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Are you ready to start some summer fun?

Adventure More

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. This week on the Pebbles blog it’s all about the guys! I picked out some masculine pattern papers from the newest Jen Hadfield collection Hey Hello; blues, greens, blacks, and a bit of yellow. I knew embellishing would be difficult so I decided I needed a strong design. My go to shapes for guys are stars and triangles. It’s been a while since I did a triangle layout so I decided to give it a go. Here is what I came up with …

I even cropped my photo into a triangle! If you look closely, you can see I added a few machine stitched triangles too.

The watercolor background sets off my photo and the pattern papers beautifully. I pulled out the Sun & Fun collection embellishments because I wanted to stick to an outdoor theme. I found these awesome trees and a frog which was just perfect!

I used the Lake Thickers that coordinate with the Sun & Fun collection for my title ‘Adventure More‘. Not wanting to do much more embellishing, I thought I would just stamp a few butterflies from the Sun & Fun collection onto my background. Note to self… stamping before adding the title would have made things easier.

I added a strip of pattern paper at the bottom of my layout, repeating the triangle pattern in this pattern paper. At the top of the layout, I added a few triangles I had leftover and then a few tags from the Chasing Adventure collection.

I love how this turned out! Why don’t you join us and create a masculine layout too.

Just Me And You

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. With Valentines Day coming up, we are turning our focus on L O V E . I decided to use the gorgeous Lovely Moments collection to scrap a layout of my nephew and girlfriend. I love the soft pinks combined with the kraft cardstock. It’s the perfect choice for documenting the loves of your life.

I used a double heart cut file from the Handipaper Etsy store. I backed one of the hearts with the pink and white striped pattern paper and backed the other heart with my photo. I used the heart to frame my title Just Me and You.  

The copper foil puffy sticker phrase is from the This is Family collection. These Thickers work great with this collection as well as the copper foil matches some of the die cut ephemera pieces.

And of course there are gorgeous floral die cut ephemera pieces. Here again you will see some beautiful copper foil pieces.

This is such a gorgeous collection! How many of you need this on your scrapbook table right now? It’s perfect for all the lovely moments of your life.

Recipe Mini Album

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. My kids are older and now living on their own. They all like to cook, just like their mother. So I often get phone calls or text messages from them asking me for their favorite recipes. For a gift, I thought it would be a fabulous idea to compile some of these recipes into a teapot shaped mini album. I used the gorgeous new This Is Family collection by Jen Hadfield.

The teapot cut file is available in the Silhouette store. It’s a Samantha Walker cut file if you are interested in making one too. The original cut file is for a shaped card. Altering it to make it into a mini was easy to do. I created a pretty cluster on the cover using a tag, some die cut ephemera pieces, and absolutely gorgeous rose gold puffy stickers.

The This Is Family collection includes a 12×12 sheet of pattern paper with 6 recipe cards. I cut these apart and grabbed some favorite recipes to transfer to them. Because I wrote on both sides of the recipe cards, I adhered them down using washi tape. This way they can be removed from the album to read the back side. Later they can also be placed in a recipe box is desired.

Isn’t that washi tape beautiful! My album is held together using two rings. To reinforce the holes in each page, I added a couple eyelets.

I kept the embellishments to a minimum on the inside pages. Houses were
fussy cut from pattern paper and then scattered throughout.

I also tucked in a few tags in places. It’s fun to include a few hidden messages on these.

The back cover was left blank.

Do you know anyone who would love this album? Go ahead and make one for yourself too! Have a great week.
