American Crafts/Pebbles Product Swap!

Hi everyone! So this week proves to be a very exciting one here on the Pebbles blog. I am so excited to announce that we have teamed up with our parent company American Crafts this week to bring you projects that use BOTH Pebbles and American Crafts products. We'll be sharing lots of projects to show you not only how easy it is to mix these two manufacturers but also just how fun it can be as well. So sit back and get ready to be inspired!

Design team member Anna Sigga created this adorable layout using a mix of products from American Crafts and Pebbles.  Just look at those photos!  Here's what Anna had to say ... "American Crafts and Pebbles products are so fun to mix.  Lots of soft vibrant colors and different textures that are almost meant to be.  I decided to mix two collections from Pebbles and one from American Crafts, and I love the result.  These three collections were just perfect for my 100% happy lil butterfly!"

Design team member Ginger Williams created a trio of dinosaur frames to hang in her son's room.  Here's what Ginger had to say ... "So many of the American Crafts and Pebbles papers and embellishments mix together so well! Some of my favorites are from the Hello Sunshine, Happy Go Lucky, and Ever After lines! I decided to mix these lines up a bit and create some dinosaurs for my son Ty's room. He has wanted to hang some dinosaurs on the wall for quite some time and this seemed like the perfect chance to get some done. I cut the Dinosaurs out using my Cricut and then added them to these frames. The title was also cut with my Cricut and layered on top of some Hello Sunshine tags. I love the simple, yet cute results! I also loved mounting them on the great kraft background papers of the Hello Sunshine line."

Design team member Kryssi Ng created this fabulous Easter themed layout.  Here's what Kryssi had to say ... "The first thing I did was pull the pictures I wanted to scrap. Pebbles Ever After line was a perfect fit with the girly color palette. I was also excited to see that a lot of the products that American Crafts provided worked just as well to complete this fun, and colorful layout. Those yellows and oranges and aqua blues are just divine!"

"Pebbles and American Crafts ... just like peanut butter and jelly ... they go together perfectly!

I love the way these products show off this adorable photo of my niece Livi ... she is such a doll!"

Design team member Stephanie Baxter created this beautiful summer themed layout.  Here's what Stephanie had to say ... "I’ve always been a massive fan of American Crafts products, so to get to work with them alongside the lovely Pebbles stuff was an absolute dream come true for this assignment! I love the way the two brands fit together with their pretty, graphic designs and bright, happy colours. It was easy for me to pick a mixture of products from the two brands to use on this layout because many of the exact colours can be found across the different lines. I will definitely be mixing and matching their products in the future...it was so much fun to create this happy, summery layout!”
