Paper crafting, cardmaking, scrapbooking and party supplies

Wreath tutorial with Pebbles Inc– cut file included!

While scrapbooking and cardmaking will always be at our core, we often love creating different kind of projects for our home, as well as gifts for our family and friends.

A recent project that our founder, Brenda, took on with Jen was to create a wreath for her letterboard – one that could work for a short time or stay on for a longer season.

Even though Jen’s went on her letterboard, you can customize it to go where ever you’d like it! Make it bigger or smaller – it’s up to you!

To get started, here is your supply list:

  •  Assortment of ­­12”x12” prints (one yellow, 3 different greens) from the This is Family collection
  •    12″x12″ brown chipboard sheet
  •      12″x12″ Yellow cardstock sheets*
  •      12″x12″ White cardstock sheets*
  •     12″x12″ Green cardstock sheets (2-3 coordinating shades)*
  •      Small yellow felt balls
  •     Clear rhinestones (round)
  •      SVG cut file
  •      Scoring tool
  •     Hot glue gun with glue sticks
  •      Tacky glue
  •      1 sheet of 12”x12” chipboard (for the back of the wreath)

*Number of solid cardstock sheets will vary depending
on the final size of the project.

­

Step 1: Print out this PDF or download this SVG file and add it to your computer.

Step 2: Using either file, cut out an assortment of leaves from the different green cardstock prints and solids. Score and/or fold them in half and set aside. Cut out the wreath form as well and set aside.

Step 3: Cut out the yellow flowers. Adhere them together by adding a small line of hot glue to one side. Wrap the other side of the flower into a flower shape and adhere in place. Repeat until desired amount of flowers are created. Finish by adhering a yellow felt ball to the center of each flower. Set aside.

Step 4: Cut out the white flowers and an equal number of yellow center circles. Adhere the flowers together by adding a small dab of hot glue to one side of the notched area and wrap the other side into a flower shape and adhere in place. Repeat until desired amount of flowers are created. Finish by adhering a yellow circle to the center of each flower with hot glue or tacky glue as desired. Set aside.

Step 5: Start laying out the wreath with the flowers first. Adhere them into place once desired arrangement is achieved. Add in leaves around all the flowers until wreath is covered as desired.

Try adding this to your letterboard, craft room wall or front door!

If you recreate the wreath (or something with the cut file!), will you tag us online with the #madewithpebbles hashtag or send us a picture? You can find us online at @pebblesinc or (through email) at [email protected]

One final note – here are the terms of use for the cut file. We hope to provide more resources like this in the future – let us know if there is something specific we can help you with!

Have a great day!

Quick and Easy St. Patrick’s Day Letterboard Project

When the March wind starts blowing, it seems all thoughts turn to green, rainbows, and lots of luck! I’m not really a believer in “luck” per say, but I do believe that if you work hard, good things will happen! So that’s the thought I wanted to share when I updated our letterboard for March!

I always like to add a little something extra to my monthly letterboards – so this month I opted to add a little rainbow-ish banner to keep up the March vibe! It was super quick and easy and anyone could whip it up in a matter of minutes! Here’s the quick step-by-step! Start by cutting out enough triangle banners to span your letterboard and enough rainbow hearts for each banner piece.

Add foam adhesive to the back of each heart.

Use baker’s twine (or whatever string you wish) to thread the banner together.

Add your favorite quote or sentiment to your letterboard – be sure to leave room at the top or the bottom for your banner.

Add the banner by securing the twine on the back side of the letterboard.

Decorated Letter Board for Valentine’s Day

Happy Valentine’s Week, friends!  It’s Wendy Sue here today, sharing my letter board, all decked out for the big day of love! I love the versatility of switching out cute/funny quotes on my board often, but I wanted to take it a step further this time and decorate it even more! I created several paper banners to hang on the top of my board, and I also used some cute foam thickers, along with the “Love” letterboard collection by DCWV.  Here’s how it turned out:

Here are some of the details.

I cut lots of hearts from the “XO” patterned paper and used my sewing machine to stitch them together to create the top heart banner.

The second banner was created the same way, with slightly smaller hearts, cut from two coordinating patterned papers.

For the larger banner, with photos of my kiddos, I printed the photos out at 2″ square.

Then I placed each photo on a banner, cut from the pink gingham paper.

I used foam adhesive to attach the photos.  And I embellished each one with stickers.  After stringing the banners on white twine, I hung the banner below the hearts.

I might be breaking some unwritten rules, but I really wanted to add these gorgeous gold thickers to complete my board, so I did!

The work perfectly with the “Love” letter board collection by DCWV.

Festive Holiday Letter Board Idea

Hi Pebbles friends!  It’s Wendy Sue here today, sharing my new festive holiday letter board idea!  I just love the letter board trend and couldn’t wait to decorate one for my home for the holidays.  I wish I had a whole wall full of them so I could feature all of my favorite quotes and thoughts.  But since I don’t, I’ll just have to rotate the quotes throughout the month. The fun thing is, my kids like to get in on the action too…and some of their ideas are WAY better than my own!  Here’s the quote we’ll be starting with this season:

Festive Holiday Letter Board Idea by @Wendysuea for @PebblesInc.

As you might imagine, I was inspired to create this board based on the amazing 2″ gold letters!

They are gorgeous!  Here’s a look at the three items I used (2″ Gold Letters, 1″ Blue Letters, and the “Home” Icons):
