Tis The Season

Nov

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. If you live in the United States, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. But now that Thanksgiving is over, Christmas is getting all my attention! I like to scrapbook some of the Christmas card photos I get from family, like this one of my daughter and her great pyrenees dog who love playing in the snow. The Merry Little Christmas collection was perfect to use! I love the fun patterns and colors. For this photo, I pulled more of the snowy embellishments, not the Christmas ones. I love how versatile this collection is.

I used a digital cut file for my title Tis The Season, and backed it with a variety of pattern papers and colors. This is a great way to use up scraps of paper. I attached these mittens to my title and added a little bow. The title was then placed on a big snowflake.

I love finding adorable die cut ephemera pieces like this girl wearing a red coat. Since my daughter was also wearing a red coat, I had to use it on this layout. I matted my photo with two different green pattern papers and tore the bottom edge so I could see the white core. The white edges remind me of snowbanks. Take a look at the dimension foam tape gives too.

One of my favorite things about this collection are the tags, like this Happy Holidays tag. These tags would make amazing quick and easy cards too. For this snowy scene, I added some dimension with some stickers and foam dots. Behind the tag you can see two of the washi tapes I layered on the background. There are so many embellishment options with this collection!

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great weekend!

Recipe Mini Album

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. My kids are older and now living on their own. They all like to cook, just like their mother. So I often get phone calls or text messages from them asking me for their favorite recipes. For a gift, I thought it would be a fabulous idea to compile some of these recipes into a teapot shaped mini album. I used the gorgeous new This Is Family collection by Jen Hadfield.

The teapot cut file is available in the Silhouette store. It’s a Samantha Walker cut file if you are interested in making one too. The original cut file is for a shaped card. Altering it to make it into a mini was easy to do. I created a pretty cluster on the cover using a tag, some die cut ephemera pieces, and absolutely gorgeous rose gold puffy stickers.

The This Is Family collection includes a 12×12 sheet of pattern paper with 6 recipe cards. I cut these apart and grabbed some favorite recipes to transfer to them. Because I wrote on both sides of the recipe cards, I adhered them down using washi tape. This way they can be removed from the album to read the back side. Later they can also be placed in a recipe box is desired.

Isn’t that washi tape beautiful! My album is held together using two rings. To reinforce the holes in each page, I added a couple eyelets.

I kept the embellishments to a minimum on the inside pages. Houses were
fussy cut from pattern paper and then scattered throughout.

I also tucked in a few tags in places. It’s fun to include a few hidden messages on these.

The back cover was left blank.

Do you know anyone who would love this album? Go ahead and make one for yourself too! Have a great week.

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. This week the theme we were given for inspiration was ‘Poolside’. I figured ocean waves fit just as well and I could knock out a layout from a family vacation in beautiful Myrtle Beach South Carolina. We had lots of fun searching for unique shells and found a few sea creatures as well. The fun Pebbles Oh Summertime collection was perfect to document our beach adventures.

I wanted to showcase all the washi tape from the collection on my layout. On a piece of 8.5 x 11 cardstock, I layered washi tape all down one side. This was then mounted on a 12 x 12 piece of pattern paper. Don’t you love those fish scales? or maybe I should say mermaid scales.

I arranged multiple photos over the washi tape using foam adhesive to add some dimension. I can’t resist adding a bit of sunshine on my summer layouts to set the mood, so here I added a die cut sun. I love the all the fun water elements in this collection too, like this mermaid, jelly fish, and seaweed.

I created an eye-catching big title and backed it with a striped pattern paper that coordinated so well with my background paper.

Are you ready for summer yet? I sure am!

Vacay Layout with Chasing Adventures

Feb

Leave a Comment

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. I am so excited to be sharing my first post with the fabulous Chasing Adventures collection by Jen Hadfield. This is such a fun collection! Perfect for capturing your adventures whatever they may be. The tropical elements in the collection were calling to me to scrap a photo from our Hawaiian vacation a few years ago.

This layout design was inspired by the washi tape in this collection. I added strips of washi tape all along one edge of a 8.5″x11″ piece of white cardstock.

I mounted my white piece of cardstock with the washi tape onto some pretty blue pattern paper that coordinated so well with my photo. A sun tucked behind my photo helps it to stand out against the busy patterns of the washi tape. The Vacay phrase sticker and palm tree from the Adventure Thickers made for the perfect title. I couldn’t resist adding those cute sunglasses from the puffy sticker pack too.

Hawaii has beautiful tropical flowers, just like these gorgeous floral die cuts I arranged opposite my title along with some wood veneer and the ‘Let’s Get Lost’ sign. I included a tag, tucked under the top of my photo, so that I could add journaling.

Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you’ll try creating a layout with a washi tape background too.
