Tealightful DIY Tag Mini Album

May

Hello dear Pebbles friends! It’s Monique here today, kicking off the “lots of layers” week with a fun tag mini album using the Tealightful collection! I always love using lots of layers so this assignment was right up my alley. Last week, when I was making a (long overdue) back-up of my photos, I found these photos again of my youngest participating in a sort of “fashion show” with his school using recycled and self-made clothes. At the time he was only 5 years old and he looked so cute! I knew straight away I wanted to use these photos in some kind of mini album, which turned out to be this tag album:

Before beginning the tag mini album, I printed all the photos I wanted to use in size 2″x 2″, found a cut file in the Silhouette store with 5 different tags, collected the papers and embellishments I thought I would need. Although I used my Silhouette to create the tags, you can easily hand cut these as well. They are different in size (what I love!) but the largest tag is approx. 6″ x 3.5″.

Now came the fun part: embellishing all the tags! Before I adhered the papers on the tags, I used my paper distressing tool to rough up the edges a little. After I had embellished all the tags I used a white & a black pen to draw a lines along the edges of both the tags and some of the papers.

Here are the tags one by one (except for the cover, which you can see in the first photo), so this is the back of the first tag. I just love the pink glitter foam Thickers that belong to this collection and needed to include some of those too!

The second tag is a Pebbles gold dipped tag from the Home+Made collection on which I typed some journaling with my typewriter. Next, I embellished it with a small piece of washi tape, a word sticker, and a transparent sticker:

For the back I used one of the squares from the Tea Party Sentiments sheet and used some ribbon and a puffy sticker to embellish:

The front of the third tag:

On the back of the third tag I used one of the wood veneer shapes from the Simple Life collection. Isn’t it just perfect?!

Here’s the front of the fourth tag. I just love that so many of the word stickers from the Tealightful collection are so appropriate for my photos!

And the back:

On the fifth tag I adhered the photos a little over the edge of the tag and I loved how it turned out:

And for the back of the fifth tag, I used one of the cards from the Tea Party sheet. Isn’t it super cute?

The sixth and last tag; I thought this was the perfect photo to use last in my mini album, lol. The word “joy” was cut from a sheet of white AC cardstock using my Silhouette:

For the back of the tag mini album I used another card from the Tea Party sheet. I had to trim a little of the sides to make it fit:

This was the last tag in the tag mini album. I used a ring binder to keep all the tags together and knotted a few pieces of ribbon around it. I really love how it turned out! Hope you do too! I adore the Tealightful collection and it’s so perfect to use for almost any occasion! Can’t wait to see what you’ll create with this collection! Don’t forget to share your projects on our facebook page or to tag them with #madewithpebbles if you post them on Instagram!

Quick Accordion Mini Album

Mar

1 Comment

Hello Pebbles’ fans! Eva Pizarro on the blog today bringing you a tutorial for a quick accordion mini book. This little book is perfect for grandparents or family members and it’s very easy to make!

To make this mini album I mixed Pebbles’ newest lines: Lullaby and Simple Life, I think the wood hues and patterns of the Simple Life collection combine perfectly with the modern blues and yellows from the baby line.

To make the accordion mini album cut two 4 inch wide strips of paper and score them every 3 inches. Glue the two strips of paper to have a long accordion book.

The pages are very simple: I added the photo and then embellished with a number and a word sticker.

To make the mini album cover I used one of the 3×4 cards you can find in the patterned papers.

On the back I added a die cut and a long ribbon to close the mini album.

You could make this book in a batch and use them as a Christmas gifts or to send to those relatives that live far away!

Those polka dot Thickers are very cute, they add the perfect embellishment to my pages.

I hope you like this idea! my mother on law I think is going to love it! Now she can take her grandson everywhere she goes!

Have a great day!

Eva

1 Year Mini Album

Hello, Renee here today to share a 1 Year mini album using the Lullaby collection. Oh, how I love this sweet baby collection and creating this mini album gave me the opportunity to combine both the boy and girl lines. Payton turned double digits this past St. Patrick’s Day! I cannot believe it’s been 10 years since she joined and completed our family. I looked through some older studio portraits and found a bunch from her first birthday. I had to grab some of my favorites to make a mini album. I used a couple of 5″ x 7″ along with some 2 ½” x 3 ½” photos for this 6″ x 8″ album.

This is my favorite page from Payton’s 1 Year mini album! Who said that Glassine Paper was just for treat bags and envelopes? I adhered two glassine papers back to back and trimmed it down to 5 ½” x 8″. I added a pretty punched edge and embellished it with adorable Die-Cuts and enamel dots. I used the We R Memory Keepers Frame Punch Board and the Baby Girl Quotes pattern paper to create a 2 ¼” x 3 ½” photo frame. Adorable!

I used my We R Memory Keepers Cinch Book Binding Tool with Square Holes to finish off my album. The instructions were simple to follow making the mini album easy to make.

I gathered all my pages and lined them up to punch the holes for an 8″ album. I pulled the #4 peg when it came time to add the additional holes at the ends of the pages.
I trimmed the We R Memory Keepers White Cinch Wires to about a 7 ½” length and placed them on the hooks. I threaded the inside pages of my mini album first, then the front cover, and then the back cover (the front and back covers faced each other so I could hide the seam) on to the binding wires.
I set the cinching bar to the size of the .75″ wires and pressed down.

My album looks great! I created a simple cover using the Just Duckie pattern paper along with a birthday cake Die-Cut and Maggie Thickers for the title of my mini album. I added the Icicle and Honeycomb glitter glues to the flowers and candle of the birthday cake Die-Cut for some sparkle.

I adhered the Baby Girl Plaid pattern paper to the front cover and embellished using a card from the Baby Boy Quotes pattern paper. I love this quote card!

I used the Baby Boy Blossoms pattern paper for my page here. Lots of pretty flower stickers around my photo! I used the Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Styleboard Die Set and Baby Girl Quotes pattern paper to create the bow embellishment.

I love the bunny design on the Baby Girl Posies pattern paper and couldn’t help but use a matching bunny Die-Cuts for this photo! So sweet! Love the glassine page that gives me a sneak of the next page. That deer Die-Cut is too adorable.

I adorned the Baby Girl Quotes pattern paper with layers and star Stickers. A “mama’ duck Die-Cut hugs her “baby” duck Puffy Sticker for lots of love.

I added lots of flower and butterfly Stickers to embellish the photo on the Baby Boy Blossoms pattern paper. I used the soft pink stripes on the Woodland Baby Girl pattern paper for this sweet teddy bear photo. How perfect is this bear Die-Cut? I cut-up the journaling card from the Baby Girl Quotes patterned paper and added some pink mist to a few words before adhering it around my photo.
