Foiled Leaves Garland

Hello everyone! I’m Eva Pizarro and today I want to share with you a quick tutorial for a Fall Garland using Pebbles new Warm & Cozy line.

This line has beautiful papers and embellishments and my favorite were the Printed Chipboard Leaves. The package contains 24 leaves with different prints and shapes, when I saw them I knew I had to make a home decor and use them all together.

Decorate your home with this easy Leaves Garland made by @evapizarrov with the new @pebblesinc and @tatertotsandjello line #warmandcozy and the #minc

Start by embellishing your leaves. Put some masking tape on half of them and use the Minc Reactive Foil and Minc Reactive Paint to embellish them. I did some dots on the other half of the leaves. you can make stripes or use a stencil also!

Run the leaves through your Minc with the Rose Gold foil.

The foil effect is amazing, I love the look! If you don’t have a Minc machine you can use the washi tape strips in this collection to add accents to the leaves. I think it would look lovely as well!

Add some stitching with your sewing machine right in the middle of your leaves and bend them a little to add more dimension.

Spring Watering Can Card

I don’t make as many handmade cards as I used to but when I sit down and actually make one, I really do enjoy it. I just love creating things out of pretty paper, adding layers then adding pretty embellishments. The Spring Fling collection is totally full of all that too!

I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out a watering can flower card cut file using off-white paper and Spring Fling patterned papers.

I mentioned before how I love adding pretty embellishments on to my cards, well the Spring Fling collection contains coordinating Heidi Swapp Minc Labels! I foiled the flowers with gold foil. So pretty!

After my flowers had gold accents, I layered them on to watering can card using foam squares for dimension.

Be Mine Valentine Wreath

Have you seen the Pebbles Be Mine Collection? Oh, it is SO adorable! Amy here from The Happy Scraps today, and I had SO much fun playing with this collection. So much pink and red goodness. Today I’m going to show you how to make this Be Mine Valentine Wreath.

@thehappyscraps created this cute Be Mine Valentine Wreath using the @pebblesinc #bemine collection. Click for the tutorial.

Collect all the Be Mine paper you’d like to use, along with the Valentine Minc Tags and the Be Mine red glittered thickers. I created my own wreath form out of chipboard, tracing a circle, then cutting it out.

Start by cutting several strips of paper to be 1″ x 4″.

@thehappyscraps created this cute Be Mine Valentine Wreath using the @pebblesinc #bemine collection. Click for the tutorial.

You’ll bend each strip of paper, placing it on your chipboard wreath form, and then use a stapler to secure it to it.

Continue all the way around your wreath form, then start on the second row, offsetting it slightly.

For mine, I ended up with three rows.

Because I wanted to cover the staples that were showing, I trimmed the extra chipboard out of the center, so I wouldn’t have as much area to cover.

I got out my Sticky Thumb Cordless Glue Gun so I could attach some ric rac to the inner edge of the wreath.

I just put a little glue down at a time, and then placed the ric rac on it. I continued around the entire wreath doing this.

I pulled out the Valentine Minc Tags and the Minc Foil Applicator machine, along with some pink and silver foil.

I added the silver and pink to these tags, making it a perfect match to the Be Mine Collection.

I attached both of the tags together using adhesive on the back, making sure that they would stay where I wanted them for the wreath. Using the red glittered thickers, I attached the words BE MINE.

Next I tied a baker’s twine bow to the top of each tag.

Using two strands of baker’s twine, I tied a bow and attached it to the wreath.

With the tails of the baker’s twine from the bow attached to the wreath, I turned over my foiled tags, and put some adhesive on each, then I placed the baker’s twine tails onto the adhesive.

It created the perfect way to hang the tags!

Quick Halloween Gift Bags

Leave a Comment

Hello Pebbles friends!  It’s Wendy Sue here with you today, sharing a quick and easy little Halloween treat/gift project.  If you haven’t figured it out already, I love (love, love, love) putting together fun little treats to share with my friends, family, and neighbors!  It’s all about the idea of sharing something fun and cute just to let people know I think they are special. Usually, it’s a store-bought treat that I’m sharing as well – not something that takes me tons of time to bake. And then I  use my most favorite scrapbooking supplies to create gift wrap or packaging to share the treat. With Halloween just around the corner, of course I’m busy thinking of fun ways to share yummy treats with everyone!  I always love the cute, whimsical artwork on the Pebbles, Inc. products, and this “Boo!” collection is no exception.  I also decided to add a little bit of Halloween shine with my new favorite tool, the Minc by American Crafts!  Here’s the project I whipped up:

And here’s how easy it was!

First, I pulled out my Minc, some orange and purple foil, and these awesome little treat bags

quick and easy treat gifts by @wendysuea with the "Boo!" collection by @pebblesinc

Have you used a Minc?  Just in case you don’t know what it is, the Minc is a tool that allows you to add foil details to your craft projects.  Pebbles has their own line of pre-printed pieces to be used along with the reactive foil and your MINC machine for easy and stylish embellishments.

Every packaged Minc item has a little heat setting number on the back of the packaging – simply dial up that number on the Minc and allow it to warm up.  The light will turn green when it’s ready.

While you’re waiting, you can prep your project!  You just place the pre-printed items, in this case the little gift bags, on the plastic folder that comes in the Minc.quick and easy treat gifts by @wendysuea with the "Boo!" collection by @pebblesinc

As you can see, right now, the bags look tone-on-tone gray/black.  Next, cut the foil and place it over the bags.

Close the folder and insert it into the front of the Minc.

The item is automatically “fed” through the machine and comes out the back…similar to a printer!  After the item is completely finished, you simply peel back the foil.  Like magic, the foil is transferred onto the product (you can also make your own projects if you have a printer that uses toner!)!!

I repeated the process with the purple foil. Peeling up the foil is my favorite part!

And here’s a look at all four of my foiled treat bags:

Of course I had to “cute-ify” them some more, so I cut apart the 3×4 tags and broke open my bag of Boo! Chips to embellish the front of each bag.  And don’t you just love the bat clothespins?  I do!!

Next, fill up the bags with yummy treats:

Fold over the top and add a little enamel dot to the center of the flap:

That’s it!  Easy!  But so stinking cute, don’t you think?  Now I just need to decide which of my spooky friends will get this set of goodies.

I still have a several days until Halloween, so I’m sure there will be more treat bags in the making!

Daily Affirmations Frame

Hi y’all!  Amanda here today.  Whatever you are, be a good one.  Today is going to be awesome.  You are loved.  These are just a few of the uplifting phrases that can be found on journaling cards in Pebbles’ new DIY Home collection.  These are the types of words that I want displayed in my home on a daily basis.

Daily Affirmations Frame by @amanda_coleman1 using DIY Home from @pebblesinc

Inspired by the wooden layered frame, I created a place where these phrases could be displayed all of the time.  I chose ultra feminine patterned papers and colors as I thought this would be perfect for my nine year-old daughter’s room.  How neat would it be to have your daughter (or grandaughter, or neice, etc.) read an inspiring new phrase as she gets ready for school every day?

Daily Affirmations Frame by @amanda_coleman1 using DIY Home from @pebblesinc

Adding a gold clip to the frame makes it easy to swap out the message often.  You could even add your favorite photographs to the rotation.

Daily Affirmations Frame by @amanda_coleman1 using DIY Home from @pebblesinc

There are so many uplifting and positive sayings in the DIY home collection.  The Happy Day cutouts with gold foil and the Quotables 12″x12″ are my favorite.  The 4″x4″ cards and 3″x4″ cards fit perfectly inside of the frame.  Add a  DIY Home Minc card to the frame for a lovely piece of decor.

Daily Affirmations Frame by @amanda_coleman1 using DIY Home from @pebblesinc

Paint the edges of the frames with a coordinating gold paint before adhering paper or tape to the top of the frames.  The more gold the better!

Daily Affirmations Frame by @amanda_coleman1 using DIY Home from @pebblesinc

Rather than breaking out the glitter (and making a huge mess), I used the gold glitter scallop tape to create a glittery frame.  It was so easy and I didn’t get one fleck of glitter in my contacts.

Daily Affirmations Frame by @amanda_coleman1 using DIY Home from @pebblesinc

After painting the edge of your frame, adhere a piece of gold glitter scallop tape to the top of the frame, pressing down firmly on the tape as you go.

Daily Affirmations Frame by @amanda_coleman1 using DIY Home from @pebblesinc

Turn your frame over and trim any excess tape with a craft knife.  Repeat for all four sides of the frame.  TIP: Strategically place the scallops so the wider parts of the frame get covered evenly.

Wherever you go, go with all our heart.
