Christmas is for Kids Blog Hop

Welcome to our blog hop creating Christmas banners. It begins at
Ellen - http://cardmonkey-business.blogspot.com where you can also read about the amazing kids that we are creating banners and holiday cheer for this weekend.

If you arrived from Shawnee - http://www.blessedonthebrightside.com, then you are in the right place.

I created a Christmas banner using the new Graphic 45 paper stack Christmas Emporium.









I took the vignettes and cut then to 5.75" square.




I then cut two squares slightly larger for each scene. I really love the loopy punch by Martha Stewart.






I adhered them with adhesive and reached for my eyelet setter.






I wanted to give it more stability so that it may be used for more than one season.

After going through my ribbon stash, I chose a coordinating red ribbon.





Here is the completed banner.





Now for the closeup shots...





















I just love the bows connecting the panels.

If you would like to make a banner like this, you can purchase the Graphic 45 paper stacks from me. Send me an email or you can use the paypal buy it now button on the upper righthand side. Please include which paper stack that you are interested in using the comments section of paypal.

Please head over to Gina - http://californiascrappin-gcinderella21.blogspot.com/ for some more great banners.

Happy Holidays!
