banners banners and more banners....

ok - I'll admit, I have a little something for banners (for a while now...lol) and this time around I went full out banner style. I created this layout for the Crate Paper Color Challenge earlier this month and was inspired by the inspiration photo that they had provided (here)...

Photobucket

as part of the design, I wanted some the elements to be able to move freely as if there were hung from the clothes line (as in the inspiration photo) and therefore used those cute pins from tim holtz to hold everything together and also added the crystal there for some added fun...

some additional details and finally catching up with the doily trend...

also its my first time ever using the SRM stickers (and is now my new found love - just love how you apply invisibly onto the papers and therefore looks as those the print was done directly on the pattern papers themselves (used: follow your heart sticker from the sweet collection). also I want to say THANK YOU Tanya for sending some over my way to play with (isn't she the sweetness - she sent me some SRM stickers as my B-Day prez!)

supplies used include:
cardstock: american crafts; pattern paper and stickers: crate paper - portrait collection; flower: prima; pin: tim holtz; button backing: my minds eye; crystal: maya road; twine: the twinery; butterfly punch: fiskars; flower punch: ek success; button: jenni bowlin; sticker: SRM sticker

all in all... close your eyes and follow your heart to whereever it may bring you...

thanks for stopping by everyone and how fast time has flown by... may is just around the corner already....
