Quick Halloween Tags with Terhi

21

Leave a Comment

 

Hello Pebbles fans! Hope you all are having a great day! Yesterday I had only fifteen minutes for making something with my hands, and I decided to do some super easy Halloween tags.

Halloween is not the most popular holiday here in Finland, but those funny spiders, dark black and bright orange are lifting my spirit to celebration mood! That’s why I wanted to have some Halloween tags ready to give away for friends, just to make their days as happy as mine.

 

The creating process is very simple.

Start by cutting out one of the Spooky Boo patterned papers (Spooky Boo “Eek” Patterned Paper) to tag shape. Cut another patterned paper (Spooky Boo “Hocus Pocus” Patterned Paper) to smaller pieces than your tag and adhere one piece on top of the tag using double sided tape. Wrap the tag now with black thread to make “spider web” look, and then place a wall spider (Spooky Boo Adhesive Wall Spiders) on top. I also added one phrase sticker (Spooky Boo Cardstock Stickers) to each, and fussy cut flowers (Spooky Boo “Hocus Pocus” Patterned Paper) to bring more detail.

I don’t think creating could get any easier. Yet, you’ll get some handmade creations to giveaway!

 

Hope this quick and easy post inspires you to create something fun today!

Hello, Pebbles’ fans! Eva Pizarro here today showing you how to make two quick Christmas Tags using our new Merry Merry collection.

Every year I wrap my Christmas presents the last two days and that doesn’t leave me much time to embellish the package. The only thing I add is a cute Christmas Tag, I try to make them quick and simple. This year I am using the die cuts and papers from the new Merry Merry collection.

Simple Snowball Neighbor Gift

Amy here from The Happy Scraps today. I’m so excited to share this project with you using the Winter Wonderland collection. Do you enjoy giving neighbor gifts to your friends and neighbors for Christmas? Today I’m sharing this Simple Snowball Neighbor Gift and the best part is, even if you live in a warm climate where you don’t have snow, you can still give these Snowball gifts to your friends.

Create these interactive and fun gifts for friends and neighbors using the #winterwonderland collection with the tutorial from @thehappyscraps on the @pebblesinc blog.

I used the 1-2-3 Punch Board and used the instructions to make a 4″ box out of a 12″ x 12″ paper.

I trimmed the corners off of each side of the paper because I wanted to create a box without a top.

This is what your paper should look like before it’s folded.

Fold your paper on the score lines, then use the Sticky Thumb Double Sided Tape and place on each corner like pictured below.

Fold your box together adhereing the corner together like pictured. Repeat for each corner.

Once the box is assembled, use more double sided tape on each flap inside the box.

Adhere each flap to the sides of the box.

Make some yarn pom poms, or something else you can think of, that look like snowballs.

Wrap your box in cellophane wrap and tie it with some baker’s twine.

The Winter Wonderland Snowfun sheet of paper has so many fun saying on cards, there are several to choose from. I thought the Snow Ball Fight card was fun for these little Snowball Neighbor Gifts.

The stickers on the clothes pins add a fun touch to the gift.

St. Patrick’s Day Gift Tags & Treats

Hello there!  It’s Mendi here today with some super fun treat ideas to share with your favorite people this St. Patrick’s Day!  I have been holing onto these cute little clear tubes waiting for just the right project and was delighted to discover Rolos wrapped in gold foil are the perfect fit for them!

I wanted to dress them up with some tags and the Mini Kraft Pocket tags from the Home+Made collection were just what I needed!  I love how they included the gold accents, gave me room to decorate the front and have the space inside to slip a tag telling my family how lucky I am to have them!

St. Patrick's Day Treats by Mendi Yoshikawa using various @PebblesInc. collections. @SnippetsByMendi

To embellish my tag I used a variety of cutting files purchased through the Silhouette store (linked below in my supply list).  I love how this little pot of gold looks cut from the gold foil cardstock.  Yellow jewels felt like the perfect finishing touch!

What would St. Patrick’s day be without a four-leaf clover?  For this embellishment I thought it would be fun to add some bounce and an element of surprise so I created a homemade “wobble spring” using just some simple supplies I had on hand.

St. Patrick's Day Treats by Mendi Yoshikawa using various @PebblesInc. collections. @SnippetsByMendi

To create my spring, I followed these easy steps:

Step 1:  Wind a fine gauge wire around a small straw or a pencil you have on hand.

Step 2:  If you have created enough for more than one wobbler element, clip them into smaller increments.

Step 3:  Depending on the size of your embellishment that this needs to hide behind, punch (2) .75″ or 1″ circles.  Layering the two circles together, poke a small hole in the center of the circles.

Step 4:  You should now have something that looks like this (for two wobblers).

Step 5:  Wind the spring around the hole in the center of one circle and tape in place.  Repeat for both ends of the spring.

Step 6:  Your completed wobbler will look like this from the side view.

Step 7:  I cut a second shamrock from contrasting patterned paper to lend a fun look when the top shamrock wobbles.  Adhere the bottom of the wobbler spring to the center of your embellishment or desired surface.

Step 8:  Add adhesive to the top of the wobbler and place your finished embellishment on top.  That’s all there is too it!  Super easy and really fun!  🙂

This fun little element would be perfect for cards or the top of a present as well!  I hope I’ve inspired you to tell your friends and family just how lucky you are to have them this St. Patrick’s Day with some treats of your own!  😉
