Banners are super cute and perfect for any occasion which is why these Any Occasion Banners are amazing! The Any Occasion Sale-A-Bration Stamp Set is made up of all types of banners – different greetings, tassels, scallops, flags, and so much more! They are perfect using them as decoration or as the greeting. Let’s get started on how I created this amazing card!
~ Card Instructions ~
I started with a Smoky Slate card base and took a strip of Elegant Eggplant measuring 1-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ and placed it on the card front as a guide for the scallop border! Using the little scallop image from the Any Occasions Stamp Set, I stamped it in Elegant Eggplant Ink all down the card. It is okay if it isn’t perfectly straight because you can place the strip down over all the edges. After the border is complete, adhere the strip to the card front. Then I punched some Silver Foil Paper with the 1-3/4″ Circle Punch. I used the 2″ Circle Punch to punch the Elegant Eggplant circle. The large Whisper White circle was die cut with the Layering Circles Framelits.
Now for stamping the banners. I laid the stamps down on the table for a second to allow them to keep their shape. Then I pressed the clear block over the top. If you place it on the clear block, it may result in it being straightened out or curved incorrectly and then it won’t stamp over the string correctly. I used Smoky Slate Ink, Basic Gray Ink, and Elegant Eggplant Ink. Just have fun with it and angle each of the banners side to side. You can add different banner greetings and decorations as you wish! I added the white circle to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the other two circles flat. I finished it off with a few Rhinestones. The card is simple and fabulous and you can mix the colors up as you wish!!!
