HAPPY BIRTHDAY BANNER CARD




Good Morning
I hope the sun is shining for you today! It certainly is here which is very unusual for a Bank Holiday weekend!
The challenge on the UK thread on the cricut MB this week was to use triangles on your card!
I decided to make a banner card and use the banner/bunting cut from Celebrations Cartridge. From memory I think I cut it at 1 3/4" on normal and shadow 5 times. The card base is an A4 card(8 1/2"x11") folded in half lengthways. All papers, letters, ribbon and ric rac used is Making Memories Bella collection. The cute little polka dot buttons are from a site I just discovered www.bloomingfelt.co.uk and you can buy these buttons at £1 for 20 in a number of different colours and also in gingham. They're gorgeous and great customer service and quick delivery too!
Thanks for looking and have a lovely Bank Holiday weekend!
