Banner Blog Hop Fall 2010

Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen

Today is our very first Banner Blog Hop and are you in for a treat today! We have 21 AmAzInG Ladies that are participating with 21 different Give-Aways!!

Let's start off with my banner. I created a New Year's Eve banner. It says CHEERS!! My whole family is going to be together for New Year's Eve and Day. I thought it would be so much fun to make and hang up a banner for the festivities. I always decorate for Christmas and seem to forget New Years. So this year I'm going to make sure New Years is not forgotten at my house.

Here's my banner with the beautiful fall leaves behind (by Dec. 31st I hope it will be a white wonderland out of my window!).



Here is a close up of the champagne glasses, one for each banner. I used my awesome PK-680 Retro Paper Doll Faces Assortment! I love this set and thought it would be perfect for this banner!!



Here's another shot of the banner on the wall.



To create the "fan" 3D embellishment behind each letter I used a video tutorial that I found on youtube. Here is a link to the original video that I watched. It's by Christina at Creations with Christina. It's a beautiful embellishment and so quick and easy. I don't even have a score-pal or Martha Stewart scoring board. I just used my paper trimmer with my bone folder.









On this close up you can really see the Twinking H2O paints that I used. These paints are fantastic. They shimmer and sparkle after they are dry. They are made by Creative Imaginations and I bought mine at Scrapbook.com. You can see them here Twinkling H2O's Wildflowers. I adore them!!



I hope you liked my banner. And for stopping by my blog during this Banner Blog Hop, I'm giving away an Awesome Set of Peachy Keen Face Stamps, PK-641 Princess Faces 1 1/8".



There are only two things you have to do to qualify for the give away.
1. Become a follower on my blog
2. Leave me a comment on this post titled "Banner Blog Hop Fall 2010" making sure you leave an email or way for me to contact you!! That's important because on my last give away I was unable to contact the winner!! :(

that's it!! I'll be picking a random winner and announcing it on Monday, November 8th!!

ok, now on to the next blog on the hop!!
That would be

Heide,

I'm so glad that I stopped by! I follow Christina's blog, but I hadn't had a chance to visit yet so I missed the rosette tutorial. Those embellishments are beautiful and looks so good on your banner!!! :) I love the color, too (purple just happens to be my favorite ;).

Thanks so much for sharing and for the chance to win (those Peachy Keen Princess Faces Stamps are seriously at the top of my wish list!),
