Banners and Banners for a baby card

I decided to make a selection of baby cards so that Julia has a choice. Here’s the second one and it uses both Banner Blast and Banner Banter as well as Bravo. Banner Blast is a Sale-a-bration set from last year which I won at a recent crop.

Stampin' Up! Banner Blast, Banner Banter and Bravo

I stamped banners from both the Banner Blast and Banner Banter sets in soft sky with the sentiments in island indigo; I was so happy that the banner punch works for both sets. It wouldn’t be difficult to snip them out, but the punch makes life very easy. I then took a piece of the soft sky 1/8 inch taffeta ribbon and I first attached the middle banner with a glue dot. Then working sideways and measuring the gaps between the banners (it’s one square or 0.5cm on the grid paper if you’re interested) I added the others. I then decided that the banners would be best with little pieces of stampin’ dimensionals and added little pieces to the back of each banner. Then it was a simple matter of anchoring the ribbon behind the piece of whisper white with tape and carefully pressing the banners down into place one at a time.

The sentiment is from the Bravo set and is stamped in island indigo. I lined the envelope as usual with the envelope liners (so easy to cut out 8 from a single sheet of DSP) with the Backgrounds DSP in soft sky.

See you tomorrow,

Liz
