Banner Punch Board Boxes

Jun

Hello, Pebbles’ fans! Eva on the blog today, sharing some boxes made with the Jen Hadfield Banner Punch Board and my favorite summer collection: Oh Summertime!

Create lovely boxes in minutes with the Banner Punch Board and the Oh Summertime line by @pebblesinc . pc:@evapizarrov

The Banner Punch is perfect to decorate parties and create awesome decor for your tables and walls, but did you know you can use it to create triangular boxes?

To start, cut a 4-inch wide paper strip. Place it over your Banner Punch Board on the 4-inch mark and cut the left side of the triangle. Use a scoring tool to score the right side. Next, flip the paper, move the scored line to the left and score again on the right side. Repeat these steps until you have 5 triangles. After the last one cut your paper using the blade.

Assemble your box by overlapping two triangles and close your boxes with some washi tape. I used the Oh, Summertime tapes, the colors and designs are awesome and I love that I get wide and thin washi tapes on one package.

To decorate my boxes I used some die cuts and a mini banner made with the Banner Punch Board. These boxes are perfect for a pool party or a summer birthday!

Do you like to create party favors? The Banner Punch Board is the perfect addition to your party tools. I use mine all the time! and if you think a little bit outside the box I am sure you can come up with lots of different projects using Pebbles’ wonderful supplies!

Thanks for joining me and have a great day!

Ribbon Layout

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Pebbles’ blog! It’s Eva and today I want to share with you a layout with paper and ribbon.

For this layout I am using the squares from the “Hello Summer” paper of the Oh Summertime line and my Ribbon Stitching Tool by We R Memory Keepers. I love to use grids and for this particular layout I filled all the page with 2×2 inch squares. Easy and it gives a very cool effect!

To start the layout I cut all the colored squares from the “Hello Summer” paper

I also printed some 2 x 2 inch photos and arranged them over my page with no particular order.

Next, I used my Ribbon Stitching Tool to fill my spaces with ribbon. The tool is super easy to use and it is magnetic so you know it is not going to move while you work.

Using the plastic needle included in the tool, weave your ribbon on your space. You can put some washi tape on the back to hold the ribbon.

Finally, I filled the remaining squares with journaling and added some cute die cuts and my title on top of my ribbon squares.

You could also use paper strips for this technique, but I think ribbon gives the layout a lovely texture!

And did you notice how gorgeous those thickers are? The glitter is just the right amount and I love that now we have already made phrases on both cursive and block letters.

This layout was very easy and the 2×2 squares helped me achieve a great design in minutes! I have used these type of paper many times before to create cards, mini books and layouts! Are you a fan too?

Have a great day and thanks for joining me!

Quick and easy cards

Hello everyone! It’s Eva on the blog today, sharing a quick and easy card trio using the lovely Oh Summertime line.

Create a quick and easy card trio with this tutorial from @evapizarrov using @pebblesinc new line Oh Summertime. #pebblesinc #madewithpebbles

These cards are super easy! You can make all three in under 15 minutes, the secret is to work with the same products on everyone. If you look closely, you can see that all the cards have 3 elements: a paper banner, die cuts and twine. For my base I used the Oh Summertime Boxed Cards, the designs are perfect for summertime notes, inside you can find patterns but also ready to go cards in case you need a card right away.

For my first card I used this lovely floral background and paired it with the green banner. Next, I wrapper the twine on my banner and added it to my card with 3d dots. Finally, I put a die cut on top. Super easy!

My next card is made with the same method but this time I rotated my banner and I tried to use only two colors: Green and yellow.

I used a green banner and wrapped my card with the twine. I added die cuts and bend the ones under the banner to give my card a little more dimension.

The last card has a two toned banner and lovely color coordinated die cuts. On this one I didn’t include twine, I felt it wasn’t necessary!

See how easy and quick these cards were? With only a few supplies you can create gorgeous cards in minutes!

Thanks for joining me and have a great day!

Floral Layout ft. Chasing Adventures

Hello everyone! It’s Eva on the blog today sharing a step by step floral layout using the Chasing Adventures collection.

Flowers are a must have on every collection and the ones from the Chasing Adventure line are gorgeous! Tropical, with beautiful colors and perfect to document your vacations! Today, I decided to use them to create a floral layout with a picture of my little boy and my husband.

To create the layout, start by gathering all your supplies that have floral designs, you can use: papers, stickers, die cuts and small embellishments. I used some die cut flowers and also fussy cut some flowers from the beautiful patterns in this collection.

I arranged my flowers in two groups: One going down on the left side of my page and one going up on the right side of my page.

I added more flowers on the beginning of my cluster and put less as I moved up or down. Tip: use the 6×8 paper pad to fussy cut some flowers on a smaller scale.

I added my photo and a die cut with the words “Remember this” as my title, I love the small tassel on the die cut, it is so much fun!

To give a little more dimension to my layout I added some flowers with 3d dots, even some small ones! I also curled some petals from fussy cut flowers.

The final step was my journaling, I wrote some words underneath the title with thing I want to remember about my son.

The clusters on the edges turned out great! It looks as the flowers are falling down and the two cascades frame my picture.

I love to use flowers for every day layouts, even masculine layouts! How about you? Do you use flowers when you scrap the men in your life?

Thanks for joining me today and have a great day!

Cooking Layout ft Along the Way

Hello everyone! It’s Eva on the blog today showing you how to create a Cooking Layout using supplies from the Along The Way line.

The Along the Way collection by @pebblesinc is perfect to record your recipes and cooking adventures! PC: @evapizarrov

My husband is from Italy and his family has many cooking traditions, one of them is making “Passata” or tomato sauce and “antipasto” that are vegetables cooked on tomato sauce. Every year we spend 1 or 2 whole days making preserves for the winter. This year we cooked more than 180 lbs of tomatoes! we were exhausted but it was totally worth it!

To create this layout I began with the cut file “The secret ingredient is always love”, because I thought it was perfect to document this memory, and backed the letters with the lovely papers from the Along The Way line.
