Adventure More

Feb

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!

They all come together in a bright, bold color palette to capture all the moments of summer you enjoy most!

Lovely Moments

Our Lovely Moments collection will add beauty to all of your special celebrations throughout the year.

Hello Autumn | This is Family

Sep

Leave a Comment

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today with some inspiration on how you can use your scraps to create a layout. This layout was completely created with scraps from the This is Family collection by Jen Hadfield. I love the mix of colors in this collection and thought it would be beautiful to use my scraps to back an Autumn cut file.

I found this cute fox and Autumn title in the Handipaper Etsy store. It did take me a while to back these two cut files but it was so worth it. There are a few tricks you can use to make it a little easier. I was able to separate out the letters from the cut file (try Ungroup or Release Compound Path in Silhouette Studio). This allowed me to use the offset feature and cut them from pattern papers slightly bigger than the openings. Autumn is a colorful season so I wanted to include lots of different colors and patterns to back my cut files… scraps are perfect!

It is difficult to see just how pretty that foiled Hello ephemera piece is. The rose gold foil is perfect for fall. I love the transparent ephemera pieces as well. A few fussy cut leaves look great on my mixed media background. I used one of the tags from the tag pad to journal on and tucked it behind my photo. I often hide my journaling using these tags.

Does this layout have you craving all things fall; cozy sweaters, cute scarfs and boots, pumpkin spice lattes, apples, and beautiful colorful leaves. I sure am. Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you try this technique with some of your scraps too.
