It's Saturday and that means another challenge with Just Us Girls! This week our lovely hostess is Dana and since it's wild card week our challenge is to make a pennant banner. You can find an awesome, very simple tutorial for this at splitcoast stampers HERE.Here is what I came up with for my banner:
Trying to get a good picture of this was hard, I hope that you can see it ok. The gumball machines on the ends are images by Sew Many Cards. I used chipboard letters for the word "Love". I painted them in red and added SU Dazzling Diamonds while the paint was wet. The ribbon on top is a twill and I added some buttons for accents. My pattern paper is from last year or maybe the year before from Target. I'm not a fan of the little puffy hearts I put in the middle but I tried to remove one and it tore the paper a bit so I just left them as is. it's funny how things seem so different in pictures. In person I think this looks much better.
While I was working on my pennant my kids wanted to make their own so I have to share their versions as well, which I think are much better than my own! :-)
Tyler wanted to make one in the Mets colors:
Kaitlyn is totally into it and made a few, here are two that I took pictures of:
