Love Banner


Here is the banner I have been working on for our fireplace. I love how it turned out!


I used all old paper that I had on hand and used a few different Cricut cartridges. The font is Winter Woodland. Most things are cut from Sweethearts. The backgrounds are from Gypsy Wanderings. The stamps are by Martha Stewart.


The gems and fabric hearts, I bought at the Dollar store. This entire decor element came to a whopping total of $2.





I used a hot glue gun to add ribbon hangers to these heart ornaments. The twigs are spray painted red.
I am entering this banner at Fantabulous Cricut Their challenge this week is to "put a heart on it".
The next challenge site that I am entering at is More than Favors. Their challenge this week is "love is in the air.
I am also entering this at Frosted Designs. They would like you to use ribbon or twine this week. I loved poking through my ribbon stash for this project!
Paper Playtime is the next challenge I followed their challenge is hearts/love.
At Decorate to Celebrate they are challenging crafters to create something for a Valentine's party.

Thanks for looking! Have a "love"ly day!
