Fun Times with Terhi

Jan

Hi everyone, it’s Terhi here again!
When you start creating a scrapbook page, which is leading you: the photograph or the products?

For me this answer is simple.
The photographs and the memories. And I must admit sometimes I can’t stop myself from saving a precious photo as long as I find the right supplies for it.
However, this time the process of creating started started very differently, when I saw the most inspiring cut file ever.
*The cut file is from Paige Evans

The beautiful circle design kind of funny one and as I love backing cut files I thought it would be wonderful to use the cut file as a colour wheel, with the brightest colors I could find. So I did and I found, all thanks to Pebbles.
I used patterned papers from “Happy Cake Day” line and created four coloured colour wheel for the background of the page.
I had four selfies waiting for the perfect products to scrapbook with, and I love the way black and white photos goes with colourful design.
Also, these selfies aren’t very seriously taken and the story behind tells about how much we all laugh together, so all the colors and design supports the theme.

Once I was ready with the background, I dived in to my scraps and found lots of colourful blooms to decorate the page. All from Pebbles of course, from the lines below:
Big Top Dreams
Chasing Adventures
This is Family
Heart of Home
I cut out as much flowers and blooms as possible and layered the flowers to make them more dimensional. To create the flowers I followed my own tutorial from last fall, please watch it here from my YouTube channel.

To finish this colourful and fun layout I added the photographs vertically in the middle and wrote a small title with thickers from Big Top Dreams.

Inspiring? Hope so! Let me know what you think by writing a comment below. I’ll be here reading them while I’m waiting to see the new lines from Pebbles arrive at my house.

Quick and Easy Birthday Treats

Do you know the quickest way to win an 8 year old’s heart? Three words – King Size Candybar. That they: don’t. have. to. share. 😉 Hi Friends, it’s Wendy Sue here today, sharing a quick and easy birthday treat idea you can whip up in no time at all!

Quick and Easy Birthday treat project by Wendy Sue Anderson featuring the "Happy Cake Day" collection by @PebblesInc.

Whether you’re creating party favors, neighbor treats, special gifts for a class or team, or some fun “just because” treats, these quick and easy candy bar wraps are the perfect solution! Here’s a quick tutorial, just to demonstrate how easy they are to make! Start by cutting the wrapper from patterned paper (I used the “Happy Cake Day” collection for this project).

I used cut file # 44645 from the Silhouette store, but I had to resize it to fit the larger candy bars. After the wrapper is cut, fold along all the score lines.

Use a strong adhesive to secure the wrapper and slide in the candy bar.
(If you don’t have an electronic die cutting machine, you could also trim the paper and simple wrap around the candy. )

Use a pre-made white shipping tag or create your own simple white tag shape to fit over the front of the candy bar (approximately 2 1/2″ x 5″). Use foam adhesive square or other adhesive to add a printed die-cuts or two to the front of the tag.

Print a sentiment or greeting onto white cardstock. Cut into strips and notch on the right end. Punch a hole in the left end. Add this piece to the front of the tag, aligning the holes.

Now attach this entire piece to the front of the candy wrap – I like to use foam adhesive squares here too!

Next, tie a piece of colorful coordinating ribbon around the entire piece and tie through the tag holes on the front.

Now repeat the process as many times as you need – it’s quick and easy, and it’s sure to be a hit with the recipient!!

Happy Cake Day

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. I have a birthday layout to share that I created with the new Pebbles Happy Cake Day collection. We all have birthdays (although some of us have stopped counting) so this collection is a must! I used it here to document my son’s first birthday celebration.

The inspiration for my design started with the 2×2 grid pattern paper. I cut the paper apart, choosing the squares I wanted for a boy’s layout. Then I arranged 9 squares in a grid on a piece of pattern paper. To reinforce the square design, I printed my photos as squares too and even machine stitched squares on my background and around some of the 2×2 square pattern paper pieces.

This collection has lots of ephemera die cuts. One of my favorites is this adorable sloth.

The birthday phrase stickers are another favorite. They are perfect for scrapbook layout titles. I layered a cupcake die cut over an adorable llama sticker here to draw attention to the title. To add a little dimension, this collection has adorable word bubble puffy stickers as well as puffy dot stickers. They add such a fun element!

What are you celebrating in 2020? I bet plenty of birthdays!

Hooray

Hey everyone, Michelle here with a new layout to share using the Happy Cake Day collection and a cut file from Cut To You. I always made a big deal out of my kid’s birthdays. Friends, family, food, cake, gifts…. It’s only once a year so we have to celebrate right? The photographer in me always took a lot of photos too, this one of my daughter cracks me up. It’s the face of pure happiness!

I really wanted this layout to be bright and happy so I choose bright patterns to back my cut file with.

I also added a big title because everything else on this page was bold. I love using a white background with big and bright patterns!

Thanks for stopping by!

New Year, New Me

Hey all!
It’s Terhi here. Before going to my scrapbook layout, I need to make sure you saw the post here from yesterday? New releases are here!
I can’t wait to see all!

This layout is made with Happy Cake Day. As you can see, as good as it is with making cards it’s also perfect for scrapbooking.

The layout tells about my thoughts, goals and ideas for the year 2020. I don’t do New Year’s resolutions as such, but I like to think and dream all that I might see and do during the new year.
As many times before, I’ve written the journaling to the backside of the layout this time too. Otherwise you wouldn’t be able to see anything other than the text! Scrapbook layouts I do for myself about myself are always going to separate album, which is like a huge diary for me.
Now that I have written my goals and thoughts down, I can go back and see how it all went after this year is over.

I created the layout with only couple patterned papers and few embellishments. The rolled flowers are always a good idea, as they give so much depth for the layout. And surely the green leaves goes well with the flowers.

As there’s quite much height difference between the background and rolled flowers, I added couple strings of thick cotton thread to make it look better. This is also a reason why I used more foam dots than glue.

I wish your 2020 is bright and colourful!
