Finding cute gift bags at the store can sometimes feel like finding a lost contact on the floor – near impossible, especially when it’s urgent. But today we’re in luck because Nina Yang has made the perfect birthday gift bags that can be customized, embellished, and tailored exactly to what you like best.

Hello everyone! Nina here again! Have you heard that American Crafts has acquired We R Memory Keepers? I’m a fan of the punch boards and would like to share a quick and easy birthday gift bag project today!

I pulled out the beautiful paper and embellishments from our Birthday Wishes collection and punched away. The paper size I used was 9”x12”.

I followed the gift bag punch board instructions all the way until I was ready to punch the holes at the top. I aligned the top of the bag to the “start” line on the board and scored at the “side” line. This way I can keep the fold lines consistent on all my gift bags.

Easy, right? Then I had some fun decorating the bags with the cardstock shapes.

The Birthday Wishes collection is a happy colorful collection and you can’t go wrong mixing and matching the embellishments.

I used foam adhesives to add some extra dimension to the elements.

Hello everyone! Nina here again! Today I am sharing a couple of quick and easy 4th of July cards using our Americana collection!

Fourth of July cards created by @ninacrafting for @PebblesInc created using the #Americana collection #handmade #cards #4thofjuly #patriotic

I used “4th of July” and “Home of the Brave”12×12 paper as well as the lovely printed cardstock shapes for this project.

I created the card base from the 4th of July paper, leaving the fireworks pattern in the background and layered some cardstock shapes on top. How cute are these shapes?!

I did the same thing on my second card but used lots of neutrals to tone it down a little for a softer impression.

I used foam adhesives to add some extra dimension to the card. The sentiment “America the beautiful” is from the sticker sheet in the Americana collection.

We love seeing products used in a unique and unexpected way. Join Nina Yang as she shares a fun set of handmade hello cards using our very patriotic Americana collection.

Hello everyone! Nina here again! We are featuring Americana this week on Pebbles Blog and today I would like to share the possibilities of this happy collection beyond a Fourth of July styled project.

I made two quick and simple Hello cards for today! The best thing about them is that I used only one piece of paper for two different looks!

Handmade hello cards created using @PebblesInc #Americana collection by @ninacrafting #handmade #cards #summer

The paper I used is called: Bright Stars, which has tiny stars on one side. How perfect are they for a summery hello card?

I trimmed my 12×12 paper to 4-1/4” x 11” and fold in half lengthwise to create the cardbase. I used the small piece that was trimmed off to create a band and adhered the pinwheel embellishment on top.

I love the B side of this paper. The colorful stripes make me happy! I paired it with the beautiful flower stickers, cut the sentiment “Beautiful” out from another paper in Americana collection called: Home of the Brave to make my card.

Are you ready to gear up for teacher appreciation? While you may not have

Teacher Appreciation

Hello everyone! Nina here to share a teacher’s gift idea: a classroom decoration.

I used the glitter foam thickers to spell the teacher’s name and lots of cardstock shapes and embellishments to create the flower frame.

Add some critters here and there for more visual interest.

I used two cardstock shape packs but I didn’t need to worry about the color harmony because they are all from the Garden Party collection and are designed to work together.

I hope that Mrs. Riley will enjoy this floral frame decoration!

I love that it can be easily altered for some other home decoration projects too!

Have you caught the St. Patty’s Day green fever yet? No? Well today’s the day. We hope you enjoy this fun lucky clover door hanger created by Designer Nina Yang.

St Patricks Day

Hello everyone! Nina here to share a quick and easy door hanger with a dimensional 4-leaf clover!

Lucky Door Hanger

I am always a fan of good basic patterns in cute colors. The Basics line from Pebbles is a must have for me. I just pulled out the greens for today’s project!

Lucky Clover Hanger 2 3.12.14

I cut the gingham paper to 4-1/4” x 9” and the floral paper to 4-1/4” x 6”, leaving the cute scallop border attached for more visual interest.

Lucky Clover Hanger 3 3.12.14

I adhered the two panels together, punched a hole, rounded the corners and the base of our door hanger was done!

Lucky Clover Hanger 4 3.12.14

I was inspired by the beautiful fan-fold butterfly embellishments from Pebbles Garden Party collection and decided to make a fan-fold 4-leaf clover. I drew a clover on some scrap paper to use as a template.

After some struggling, I finally had the pattern figured out! You can find a step-by-step tutorial and download a free pattern on my blog.
