Banner Christmas card

September 11, 2014

Another Christmas card today and this one combines the Banner punch (currently reduced in our Weekly Deals from £11.50 to £8.63) with the new Handheld Stapler.

Do you recognise the piece of paper used for the lower portion of the card front? I’ll have a quick tutorial to explain it tomorrow.

The base card is an A6 landscape of Soft Sky. Banners were punched from a mix of All is Calm Specialty DSP and stapled across the top of a mat of Whisper White card using the Handheld Stapler and Silver Mini Staples. Using Lost Lagoon ink, a sentiment from Good Greetings (find out how to get it for FREE) was stamped below the Banners and double score lines added on either side to frame it. Another piece of All is Calm Specialty DSP was adhered to the bottom half of the card and then Silver Satin Ribbon wrapped over the join before adhering to the card front. Finally, a piece of Lost Lagoon Taffeta Ribbon was tied on to the Silver Ribbon and anchored in place with Mini Glue Dots.

On the Whisper White insert another couple of Banners were stapled on and another sentiment stamped in Lost Lagoon ink.

Please pop back tomorrow for the tutorial.
