Mini Valentine’s Treats

Feb

Hello everyone, Eva here on the blog showing you how to create a quick and easy Valentine’s treat for your friends and family.

Ready for Valentine's Day? @evapizarrov teaches you how to create these cute mini treats with the new Lovely Moments collection by @pebblesinc #pebblesinc #madewithpebbles

These cute treats are perfect to give to your classmates or friends from work. They are fast and you can make them in bulk placing your favorite valentine’s treat inside.

To create them start by cutting some 2 x 6.25-inch strips from your favorite patterned papers and scoring it at 1 inch.

Next, use a border punch on the side and bend the paper on the scored line.

Make two small holes using your Crop a Dile and close the top with a small piece of baker’s twine.

You can use one of the cute tags that come in the ephemera pack or use the stamp set to create your own!

Use a punch or cut the tags by hand and place them in the baker’s twine.

To decorate the front of my treat bag I used a small sticker wreath and a small heart. Isn’t it cute?

Inside the treat bag you can place your favorite chocolate. I put a small heart with a glue dot. you can also write a small note or glue am ephemera.

To close the treat simply slide the paper inside the border like a matchbook. Here are all the treat boxes I made.

The pastel colors in this collection were perfect for my treats!

Thank you for joining me today and I hope you give these treats a try! Happy valentine’s Day!

Valentine’s Day LOVE Banner

The countdown to Valentine’s Day is on – have you started decorating yet? It’s Wendy Sue here today, sharing a quick and easy banner I created to add a little love to our home!

Valentine's Day HEART banner by Wendy Sue Anderson for @PebblesInc.

You can make this banner too – it’s easy! Here’s how:

Start by cutting several hearts in two sizes. You can cut these by hand, with a digital machine, or even with metal dies if you have them. The smaller heart I used has scallops around the edges – but this is totally optional. You’ll also need to gather some letters to spell “LOVE” on each heart. I used a variety of stickers and die-cut words. **NOTE: I mostly used papers and stickers from the “Peek-A-Boo-You” collection for baby girls – I love the soft colors for this Valentine’s Day project!

Layer the small heart onto the larger heart. Use a sewing machine to stitch around the edges if desired (of course I love the softness a bit of stitching adds).

Next, add the stickers to the center to spell out “LOVE” (or if you prefer to mix up the phrases, like conversation hearts, that’s fun too).

At this point, you can also add additional stickers or embellishments to some of the hearts if you desire!

After the hearts are completed, you need to punch holes to string them together. I like to use my Crop-o-dile punch so I can punch several at a time.

Stack them up, and punch away!

Choose your favorite ribbon or twine to string the hearts together

Now hang it up…and feel the love! I hope I’ve inspired you to create something fun to decorate your home for the big LOVE day coming up!

Happy Valentine’s Day! –Wendy Sue

Just Me And You

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. With Valentines Day coming up, we are turning our focus on L O V E . I decided to use the gorgeous Lovely Moments collection to scrap a layout of my nephew and girlfriend. I love the soft pinks combined with the kraft cardstock. It’s the perfect choice for documenting the loves of your life.

I used a double heart cut file from the Handipaper Etsy store. I backed one of the hearts with the pink and white striped pattern paper and backed the other heart with my photo. I used the heart to frame my title Just Me and You.

The copper foil puffy sticker phrase is from the This is Family collection. These Thickers work great with this collection as well as the copper foil matches some of the die cut ephemera pieces.

And of course there are gorgeous floral die cut ephemera pieces. Here again you will see some beautiful copper foil pieces.

This is such a gorgeous collection! How many of you need this on your scrapbook table right now? It’s perfect for all the lovely moments of your life.

Valentine’s Day is only a day away, but if you haven’t decorated yet, it’s not too late! Here’s a quick and easy Valentine’s Day frame idea you can whip up in literally minutes!

Quick and Easy Valentine's Day frame by Wendy Sue Anderson for @PebblesInc. featuring the "Loves Me" collection

Isn’t it cute? Here’s how to create one up for yourself!

Start by trimming the text paper to fit a frame of your choice.

Cut the number “14” from a coordinating paper. You can use a digital die-cutting machine or cut it out by hand.

Embellish the number “4” with these cute little foxes from the printed die-cut pack.

I used foam dots to attach them, but you could use regular adhesive if you prefer.

Now add a few glittered hearts from the thicker sheet!

These glittered foam thickers are so cute!

Now pop it in your frame and start planning your next Valentine’s Day activity!

One Page Mini Album ft. Forever My Always

Feb

Hello everyone! Eva Pizarro here on the blog showing you how to create a One Page Mini Album using the Forever My Always Line.

I don’t know about you but I love to make Mini Albums! Unfortunately, they are very time consuming and I always end up making a multi-photo layout. For this post, I decided to make a quick mini using one of my favorite techniques and only one sheet of paper. Actually, half a sheet.

I started with a 6×12 inch paper and scored my paper every 2 inches, I rotated it and scored 3 inches on the short side.

Next, I cut my paper in half leaving only one square attached (cut through the scored line) and bend it forming an accordion.

I placed double sided tape on the blue sides of my pages and created the mini book.

I decorated it with 2×3 inch black and white photos and small die cuts.

To close the mini album I used a pink ribbon and I also made a small tag to embellish it.

The mini is very simple and holds pictures of the persons I love the most: My husband, my little one Lorenzo and my two little girls.

I also used some phrases from a patterned paper and some puffy hearts to embellish each page.

This mini is super quick and uses only a few supplies! It is perfect as a brag book and you can use the same technique and make it in other sizes!

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you give this mini a chance! If you do please share it with me in the comments! I would love to see it!

Have a great day!

Eva
