Bridal Shower Banner
Sometimes it can be quite advantageous to have a mom (Me) that is into papercrafting. My daughter is throwing a Bridal Shower for her best friend and asked me to make her a banner. I love it when I get a chance to do something different. Banners are fun and this is the first time I've made one for a Bridal Shower!
She wanted to use a pink color that was close to the color in her wedding. I still had a few sheets of the retired Baby Pink cardstock which turned out to match perfectly.
I used the Artbooking Cricut Cartridge to cut my banner and the letters. The letter are cut from Colonial White Cardstock. I went for a little different shape rather than the usual 'triangle' for the banner.
I used the Artistry cricut cartridge to cut the 'stone' that is behind each letter. These were cut from the lighter gold glitter paper from the Gold Glitter Paper (Z3076). I found a wedding ring image on the Artfully Sent Cartridge so used this image behind the "To" in the center.

I felt like just a little something else was needed on the banners so I stamped a flourish in Desert Sand ink. Desert Sand is the perfect color for a gold look. The flourish is from the set - Mr. & Mrs. (C1621). The gold ribbon is just some ribbon I had on hand in my stash. It worked perfectly.
Thanks for stopping by! I think I'm getting my creative mojo back after all these weeks. Be sure to stop by on Saturday to check out April's Stamp of the Month blog hop!
