Good morning crafty friends, Leah here with you today to host the blog.
Today I am going to show you this sweet Birthday Chipboard Banner that is another new item from Clear Scraps this year.
Today I am going to show you this sweet Birthday Chipboard Banner that is another new item from Clear Scraps this year.
The Chipboard Birthday Banner comes with 7 pieces, approximate sizes are 1 cupcake 8"x8", 4 small banners 6.5"x6", 2 stars 4.5"x6".
Here is the banner all decorated. It spells out Sweetie, and I thought it would be perfect to hang up around Valentines Day. I used the lovely collection from Crate Paper called Fourteen to dress up this banner.
I adhered all the pattern papers to the chipboard pieces. Then came back in with various new Mascils and mist to add a little texture and interest.
I also added this Swirl Acrylic Border to two pieces on this banner. If you look at the top right closely, you can see where I cut this swirl border in half to create the second piece. I then decorated it with alcohol ink, then adhered it to my star.
You can clearly see the circle mascil here.
Bling cherries and a pretty bow make this cupcake one of a kind, and oh so cute!

Here is where I used the other half of the Swirl border I mentioned above.
I just love it!

On this next banner piece, I added this small Scallop Acrylic Frame to accentuate the cuties on the paper. I edged it in Viva Decor Pearl Pen to dress it up.

Here's a better close up of the frame
And the very last piece to the banner. I used the fabulous fans mascil for this piece.
I tied it all up using some twine from The Twinery.
I really love how a banner can brighten the decor in your room, and Clear Scraps has many you can choose from! Thanks for stopping in with us today!
