I’ve had my Summer Mantel up for a while but it was missing something. I love banners (or buntings) whichever you like to call it. So I decided to make one using my Cricut and these 2 cartridges. I’ve been in a “use what I have” mode so this project was made without having to buy anything new.
I cut the letters and tags out of cardstock using different shades of blue for the letters and a light brown for the tags. The blue and brown together remind me of the beach. What I wouldn’t give to have my toes in sand at a beach right now. But back to reality.
I simply adhered them together using a glue stick.
I had some Spa Blue paint left over from a previous project so I decided to paint the clothespins using this pretty blue.
This ribbon has been in my stash for 2 years. I love all the cheery Summery colors.
I love using clips whenever I can. They’re perfect for banners and they can be used over and over again.
I love Summertime and it never seems to be nearly long enough. I could seriously live on the beach somewhere. I’m not picky, just a beautiful beach with perfect weather.
Here’s one more picture. If you’d like the tutorial on the Sand Dollar Art click here.
