It's a Banner Day!

TGIF! And today I am showing you another new release by Diane Duda for Stamping Bella. And our challenge this week was to use a banner on your card.

I am practicing my clouds and am pretty pleased with these ones. I followed the youtube video from my friend Alyce, it is one of the best I have seen and she has several others too. Again, I have tried to keep the colors nice and soft as I feel they suit the image really well. Ok, make sure to play along next week with our sketch challenge for you chance to win some bella bucks to put towards getting some new rubbah! Here is the sketch for next week. Oh, and a little extra something from Emily, Any Order orders over 55.00 will receive a surprise KETTO goodie bag (stamps will be randomly chosen) the value of the goodie bag will be approximately 30.00!!

Great job on the clouds Amanda! And thanks for the link to the tutorial! Not sure that I can replicate that, but you always hope at least a little bit of it rubs off on you lol! I can see it definitely rubbed off on you!

And I LOVE your floral banner! I've seen another one of these somewhere else recently (maybe it was yours too?) and loved the idea. Definitely want to case that idea - really pretty and fun!

Oh - she is adorable!!!!!!

I'll be honest and say I'm not 100% sold on the sentiment in her dress - but I guess one could wipe off that ink before stamping, huh??

Love your take on the banner too :)
