I have totally jumped on the bandwagon of banners. I love banners! I have a banner for birthdays, most holidays (I need to get on that) and special occasions. They are so fun and easy. My 9 year old daughter has been asking me for the past week if we could do some paper crafting together. I had a friend call and ask if I could make a banner for a church activity. Ta Dah! There was my creating time with my beautiful daughter. (I love that she is so much like her mama and loves to create with paper!) We made this super cute banner together. She loved cutting, stamping and embossing (with the cuddle bug) the little hearts and helping me adhere it all together. Now I just need to make myself a super cute Valentines banner to show off at my monthly club.
This is the most basic banner I have made but I wanted to keep this super simple so my daughter would enjoy it and not feel overwhelmed. Simple is beautiful right?
