Mother’s day cards

Hello crafty friends, it’ Lucile. Today I find you to create two simple and colorful Mother’s Day cards. To make these cards, I used the Hey Hello collection from Pebbles. I wanted to make cards with flowers because my mother loves it and there are lots of beautiful flowers in this collection and it is perfect for spring!

To make the first card, I selected 6 papers from the collection and I cut out circles. Then I cut my circles into two parts. To make the base of the card, I cut a 16 cm square, in the center, I cut with my Cameo silhouette “Happy Mothers day!”.

Then I drew two circles and placed my semi circles all around. I sewn them with white thread. Finally, I pasted stickers of flowers with 3D foam and I added gold foliage. I stuck my card on a colored paper from the collection to highlight it.

For the second card, I cut a 16cm white sheet. I wanted to create an envelope from which flowers escape. I started by making my envelope, I was inspired by a stichers from the collection. I designed my envelope and to add relief, I sewed the contours of my envelope. With my cutting machine, I cut “Happy Mothers day!” as on the first card.

Then I had fun sticking flowers out of the envelope. I glued them with 3D foam. I stuck stickers on my envelope and added two butterflies. Finally, to make a reminder with the first card, I pasted my card on colored paper.

I hope you like these two cards with the Hey Hello collection from Pebbles and give you ideas for Mother’s Day! See you soon.

Gift Boxes With Hey, Hello

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. With most people around the world right now sheltering in place to help reduce the spread of coronavirus, no birthday parties or wedding receptions or baby showers or celebrations of any kind involving groups of people are happening. I want to make sure some special people in my life still feel loved even if we cannot be together for special events. My Mother-in-law just turned 80 and I couldn’t even give her a hug! I decided to make some little gift boxes to deliver to some special people with some goodies inside. I used two coordinating sheets of 12×12 of pattern papers from the beautiful Hey, Hello collection and decorated my boxes with tags that can be cut from pattern paper. Boxes are easy to make. I used a cut file from SVGcuts , but they can also be made without using a cutting machine.

The Hey, Hello collection is perfect for special occasions of all kinds, like birthdays.

There is plenty of room inside for cupcakes, donuts, or cookies.

Layer up a couple tags and a ribbon on the top to make your box so festive looking.

This next gift box could be used for a birthday as well, but I’m giving it to a girl who will be graduating from high school. Commencements have been canceled. I can put candy, gift cards, or cash inside.

I added a tag cut from pattern paper to the top along with a die cut phrase ephemera piece and some ribbon.

But don’t think this collection is just for kids… This beautiful floral box went to my Mother-in-law. It would be perfect for Mother’s Day too. There are lots of other beautiful floral papers that would make lovely gift boxes.

I put her favorite chocolates inside. Once again I adorned my box with ribbon, a tag, die cut ephemera, and cut paper leaves.

Do you have anyone special you can’t be with right now? Why not create a special gift box for them. You don’t need a special occasion to tell someone your thinking of them.

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.

Welcome 2020 layout

Hello crafty friends, it’s Lucile! To begin I wish you a happy new year 2020, health, may your projects come true!
Today I find you for my first layout of 2020. I wanted to honor my family! I was fortunate to share the New Year’s Eve with my family and friends.

This page is made with the sublime new collection of Jen Hadfield “Hey! Hello”. I love it, I will be able to use it for lots of creations. These colors and patterns are beautiful!
This page is built vertically. The main element is the central strip where it is written 2020.

I started by cutting out my Silhouette Cameo “2020” in the center of my strip. I added a darker paper below so that my text is highlighted. Then I sewed around my numbers to add volume.

Then I added strips of torn paper to the sides of my strip. I love this technique, it allows you to break the too straight side of a page. I also cut flowers in a paper from the collection for a recall with the central element. I also added a paper clip at the bottom of my page.

Finally, I pasted my photos. I added cut flowers in a paper from the collection. Under the photo on the left I added the word “moments”. Then with my typewriter, I wrote a quote about the family.

I hope you enjoyed this page. I love this “Hey Hello” collection by Jen Hadfield! We meet very quickly for a new creation. See you soon and good creations!
