Give Thanks Banner

Today I'm participating in the NewlyWoodwards Dare To Do It Yourself Party.  This week the dare is Dare To... Be Thankful.  I made this cute little banner by cutting out some felt to the size I wanted, gluing on some cute scrapbook paper and topping it off with some chipboard stickers.  I finished it off by hot gluing the felt to some ribbon, gluing on a few leaves and adding some ribbon.  It turned out cute I think, not really what I was imagining, but I don't think I have the tools to do what I wanted to do... oh well.  I was pretty lucky to have everything on hand already except the chipboard stickers and those only cost me $1 in the Target dollar bins.  Gotta love the dollar bins!  Head on over to the party and see what other crafty people are doing.

  9. That came out really cute. I like it!!! :) What kind of glue did you use to glue the scrapbook paper to the felt? I just made a Christmas banner out of paper. You should check it out. :) Also, we're having a HUGE Creating Christmas Blog Fest over at The Girl Creative in a few weeks. I hope you participate.

    Adding you to my blog roll. :) Have a great day!

  10. I just used regular old elmer's glue to attach the paper to the felt. It seems to be holding up just fine. I did use hot glue though to attach the felt to the ribbon for hanging.
