Happy Wednesday!
Today, I am sharing with you my 4th of July Banner that I will be teaching at Timeless Treasures. It has been a very long time that I have designed a class. However, I am ready to get back to doing what I love. This banner has bits & pieces from random paper collections. You will see Bazzill,
Canvas Corp., Pebbles, and Echo Park. I took some of my favorite patterns that screamed 4th of July to put this all together. A perfect collaberation for the red, white, & blue.
This blog post is very photo heavy, as I created a banner with 10 panels. I also love the details that finish the final project. I wanted to share as many as I could with you.
{I only had 30 minutes to assemble, and photograph. Sun was going down, and I was on my way to Roman's baseball game. My original idea was to tie blue tulle in between each of the panels. However, I seemed to have misplaced it! LOL I still think it looks great without it, but will be extra special when I add it. }
4th of July Banner:
In this banner class we will be working with some of my favorite elements: Vellum, heat embossing, rosettes, pinwheels. doilies, and lots of layering. This will be perfect for your 4th of July celebration, and I hope you will join me in class as we create one panel at a time!
Details of the banner:
I love, love pockets created with vellum paper. Here I created an envelope to begin, and end the banner. You will find one more tucked in the middle, too. I layered with crepe paper that I ruffled using my sewing machine. I added a stripe paper to the inside, and of course added a bit of sparkle inside!
Now, here is another vellum envelope, but this time added it to a banner panel, just because.
Doily is white!
I think this is one of my favorites of all the panels! Just screams happy, and festive at the same time!
Here on the tag. We will be playing with glitter, of course! Add in paint, and modeling paste, & we are learning a new technique!
Now for the details of my first class for 2014.

I had such a great time playing, and designing this banner. I hope that you will enjoy it, too. However, time to put it away, and begin designing my next class. I get lost in the details, and this is what makes me happy!
