"JOY" Banner

Here is one of the projects I had for everyone to get decorating ideas from.

The penant banner is made using the Pennant Banner Die for the Big Shot. This is the larger of the two penants that come on the die. The Old Olive scallop circles are also on the die. They are slightly bigger than the ones made with the scallop circle punch. The letters were cut with the Big Shot using the Timeless Type Alphabet.

To hang the banner I punched holes and attached Antique Brass Jumbo Eyelets with the Crop-A-Dile. The tassle at the bottom is 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon. When you cut the ribbon there is one end that will naturally unravel if you pull at the strings. The other end I cut the side of the ribbon off to make the threads easier to remove. The Designer Paper in the background is from the current Idea Book & Catalog. It coordinates with the Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Very Vanilla cardstocks. I cut it with the Pennant Banner Die to get the shape just right, then cut off the scallops.
