Guess What?

here's what...
{wink&smile}
with my scrapbooking paper out I decided I would try something fun & new..
so I made this fun little banner

I had really wanted to go with a new baby theme but then I thought the colors
were so very Valentine-y! All I did was use some glue stick to add the paper to the banner
shapes, cut around it and punched my holes for hanging.
Then I used my oval punch and cut out a background for the letters

I cut my letters with my cricut --yeah another attempt at using my tools.
then added my letter with glue stick as well. I hung the banners on some bakers twine
and added some fun prima flowers to different sides of the letters and on each end of the banners
I added some extra ribbons to give it a little poof...

Gotta tell you that I am loving playing with my papers and embellishments.
There are so many fun things I can do with it all. One of which is scrapbooking.
I am happily going back to playing for the sake of playing and what a feeling that leaves me in.

I am linking thi sup to the following parties:


Have a great week.

Tina, thank you for showing us how you made this cute banner! I love it! I'm working on one using my Cameo I got for Christmas. It's time-consuming trying to get it worked out but once I do, it will go a lot quicker! Blessings from Bama!

Very cute banner. I love seeing stuff like this - it inspires me and makes me want to get creative as well. I don't do stuff like this but I used to do some digital scrapbooking. I think it's much more creative to see the stuff live.
