This Month I created a Thanksgiving banner with the Huntington Collection from Close To MY Heartt.
My banner says THANKFUL, so that I can keep it up all fall to remind us to be thankful for all that we have.
I really enjoyed making this banner and making so many of my own embellisments. Close To My Heart has such wonderful products and their colors are so well designed to work together that it is easy to make extra stuff in addition to the wonderful products that are part of the collection.
I stamped the flowers with our Exclusive ink pads and then used Our Markers to add some depth the color giving them a little of the Ombre look that is so popular right now.
The Banner was strung together with the burlap ribbon to give it a very earthy fall look. It was so easy I just folded it over and stapled and or glued the pieces in. Very easy and quick and I love the look.
This piece was stamped with the September Stamp of the month which you can puchase for only $5 with any $50 purchase this month only. This is such a great value as the full retail is $17.95.
