This is my first blog hop and I am super excited!!
If you came from the talented Debbie at Workin Scrappin Mom of 4, you're in the right place! If you've just happened across my blog and would like to hop along with us, you can go to Cooking With Cricut and start at the beginning.
Today’s hop is all about Thanksgiving decorations – for your home and table. And on that note I tried my hand on a banner. I LOVE the way it came out. I only wish my camera would do it some justice. I tell ya, I will get those settings right one day!! LOL
It is actually hanging up on the window in front of my curtains in the dining room...horrible lighting in there....SO I took a picture of it on the kitchen floor! HA!
I LOVE this cut!
I absolutely LOVE the colors. I wish they made a paper stack for the papers I used.
To make this Banner, I used:
Gypsy to size all my cuts.
Carts: Gypsy Wanderings for the banner and resized for the layering effect; A Child's Year for the font; Create a Critter for the turkey.
Paper: Solid card stock is Colorbok; banner layer is TPC Studio's Rustic Garden Fall Phrases; letters are TPC Studio's Rustic Garden Sunflower Toss; turkey "feathers" are from DCWV Harvest Gathering.
Misc: Argoyle embossing folder, PKS Create a Critter face stamp ( I only used the eyes), white gelly roll pen, colorbox chalk ink chestnut, Ranger distress ink tea dye, and ribbon from my stash.
