Halloween Monster Boxes

Oct

Hello everyone! It’s Ev a on the blog today, sharing some quick Halloween boxes made with the “This Is Family” papers.

Create some spooky Monster Treat Boxes using the "This is Family" collection by @pebblesinc. p.c: @evapizarrov

I love to create Halloween treat boxes, I think they are a great handmade gift for someone special! These boxes are very simple and the best part is that you don’t need any special Halloween supplies to create them!

To create these flip top boxes, start by cutting a 9 2/8 x 6 7/8 inch patterned paper. Score it on the long side at 1/2 inch, 3 5/8 inch, 4 7/8 inch and 8 inches. Next, rotate the paper and score on the short side at 1 1/4 inch, 4 3/8 inch and 5 5/8 inches.

Score all the lines and cut the two left section of your box. Cut the lines you see on yellow and score the ones you see on orange.

Assemble your box by gluing the lids. You can use some sharp scissors to cut a triangle on the side of the lid.

Decorate the boxes with black and white cardstock and some monster eyes! The boxes are ready to be filled with your favorite treat!

I added some teeth, eyebrows, horns, spots and even some hair made with a tassel! Kids could help you decorate the boxes, I am sure they can come up with some spooky monsters!

Aren’t these boxes fun? Who says you can’t use a regular collection for Halloween?

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Speech Bubble Layout

Hello everyone! Eva on the blog today sharing a layout about my little boy using the fun speech bubble stamp from the “This Is Family” collection.

Use your stamps to create a fun and easy layout with this tutorial from @evapizarrov using the This is Family line from @pebblesinc

I know that adding journaling sometimes can be a little hard, especially when you have everyday pictures! Most of the time, I journal about the personality of the members of our family, the things they like, their top 5, etc. Sometimes it is not about the events but about the feelings.

The fun speech bubble stamp from the “This Is Family” line was perfect to capture some of the favorite quotes from my little boy. I know I will cherish this when he is older.

I started by stamping the speech bubble stamp on white cardstock using several colors.

Next, I placed those journaling spots all around my big photo and added stickers and die cuts. The designs are perfect for family and everyday layouts!

The final step was adding my title. I left an empty spot on the left and added these beautiful copper letters.

Time to write the journaling and the layout is complete!

The alpha paper underneath the picture was perfect! On top of my picture, I added a few more speech bubbles with sentiments. They bring a little color and coordinate perfectly with my theme.

This layout was fun and very fast! Journaling doesn’t have to be hard! Sometimes your supplies can give you great ideas!

Thanks for joining me and have a great day!

Baby Boy Explosion Box

Leave a Comment

Hello everyone! Eva on the blog today sharing a baby boy explosion box made only with 4 elements!

There’s nothing cuter than a small DIY box to hold a gift, and even better if it is an explosion box! For this challenge, I used only 4 items: 3 patterned papers and a sticker sheet from the lovely Peek-a-boo you collection.

I love the 3×3 inch cards paper, you can use them to create cards, mini albums and more!

To create my explosion box I scored a 9 3/4 inch square paper and scored it every 3 1/2 inches. I cut the angles and bend the triangles to form 2 pockets on the inside of the box.

Next, I embellished my box with the 3×3 inch cards and some stickers. Aren’t those designs the cutest? The bear is definitely my favorite.

Inside the pockets, I added this 3×3 inch card that they can fill with the baby’s name and date of birth. You can also add pictures and a small note on the inside to make this gift even more meaningful.

I also created a slightly bigger lid and decorated it with a paper bow and a circle tag cut from one of the 3×3 inch cards.

This little box turned out super cute and the best part is I didn’t use many supplies!

Have you ever made an explosion box? This is the first one I make and it is certainly not going to be the last one!

Use only 4 items to create this lovely explosion box made with @pebblesinc new line Peek-a-boo you p.c.@evapizarrov

And how about making a mini album with only 3 items? Check out the post I wrote last month to see how I recorded a family weekend in a simple and quick mini album.

Hello everyone! Eva on the blog today sharing a quick gift box perfect to thank that special person in your life.

create quick and easy gift boxes for your kid's teacher with this tutorial from @evapizarrov using the new @pebblesinc line "This Is Family"

These little boxes are made with the new and gorgeous “This is Family” collection by Jen Hadfield, the pattern are modern and feminine and the sentiments are perfect for your everyday life! I made them for my kid’s teacher but you can use them to thank any person in your life!

To create the boxes, start by cutting some 10 inch x 8 inch paper and use your Gift Bag Punch Board to create the box.

I didn’t punch the holes on the top part of the gift bag, instead, I cut another flap and used a We R Memory Keeper Punch to create a window.

Assemble the box and embellish with die-cut and ephemera. I love the tag paper included in the collection, super versatile and makes your job very easy!

Another favorite is the clips, look at those lovely faces! aren’t they cute?

Now the last step is to fill these pretty boxes with your favorite treats. I used some jellies that my sister in law brought me from Italy, yummy!

Do you ever make gift boxes? Gift-giving doesn’t have to be hard and expensive, the best things are the ones made from the heart.

Thanks for joining me today, have a great day!

3 Element Mini Album

Jul

Leave a Comment

Hello everyone! It’s Eva on the blog today sharing a quick mini album using only 3 elements of the “Oh, Summertime” line.

This was a hard challenge because I had to limit myself to only 3 elements, but I loved the final result and it was very fast and easy to scrap without having to choose between so many things!

For this mini album I chose: 1 wave patterned paper, 1 3×4 inch card paper and a package of die cuts.

I started by creating a 3×4 inch accordion mini album using the waves patterned paper. I also cut the 3×4 inch cards and added them to some of my pages. The designs are perfect for our summer vacations early this year.

I printed 3 x 4 inch and a 4 x 6-inch photos and added them to my album. Now all I needed to do was embellish! used the die cuts and some words I cut from one of the patterned papers. It was fast and easy!

For my cover, I used one of the 3 x 4-inch cards and added a strip of paper and a pineapple to close the mini-album.

The inside pages are very simple and all of them have the same recipe: one-page photo and a die-cut or 3 x 4-inch card.

The waves patterned paper is gorgeous and it was perfect to journal in white. If you like to include lots of journaling try filling a page! With this small mini-album, you cover it very quickly!

And why not try a 4×6 photo? You can embellish or journal on top of the picture for a fun and graphic effect.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you can find some ideas to scrapbook with a few supplies! You really don’t need much to create an awesome memory keeping project!

Have a great day! Eva
