SPS Inspiration with Denine - Birthday Banner

Good Morning Friends,

My oldest son turned 23 this week... Happy Birthday Baby Boy

He is a HUGE fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers football team... I mean HUGE.  

and sadly for him... his mother doesn't follow any sport her child is not playing!

I made him this banner for his birthday... I think it turned out pretty good considering I have only made 2 banners EVER!!

Here is the LOGO... so easy to do with the CAMEO.  I just found a file via Google... and pasted it right into the Designer Edition software for Silhouette Cameo... used the Print and Cut feature... and presto... 

All the banner pieces are from 2 files at the Silhouette Online store.  Combined them and came up with all sorts of layers that worked together.   And for only $1.98 total... can not beat that!

Lots of dimensional adhesive.  I love Zots 3D dots... they are so strong and clear... so they work for all sorts of project.  They are in between the size of a dime and pencil top eraser, so when I need to be smaller for a project, I am able to simply cut them to the size I need.  Really like that!

Here is the card I made to go with it!  Same colors, and shapes.  

And a little inside message.  I put a black piece of cardstock behind the yellow so that the edge punch stood out a bit.  I know the punch is not perfectly lined up... it was a last minute thought.   Still adds a little something. 

Supplies:

Cameo
Bazzill Cardstocks - Yellow, Black, White
Sentiments - Fiskar Birthday Wishes

Remember - there is still time to VOTE for Challenge #37 projects and
  SUBMIT your Project for Challenge #38.

Have a fabulous FRIDAY!!

JOY with CARTA BELLA "WINTER FUN"

Good Morning Friends,

This is DIANA L. from DL.ART,  I will be the featured designer here at  shop Pumpkin Spice today and on  December 14th.  I will be showcasing the December kit  "Wonderland FUN".
 Each designer will have a few days this month to share with you and show just how awesome and versatile this kit can be.
I would suggest you get this kit quick, they go fast!

Here is a peek of my project for today.

These papers are from the 6x6 paper pad Carta Bella's "Winter Fun"

 The background card stock  is core'dinations from the vintage collection

 I used some frosted lace stickles in the middle of the snowflake, it is very subtle.

I love how the texture of the paper along with the words, gives a lot of interest too the piece. I used pop dots underneath the word joy to give dimension also.

 The twine jute is a nice addition to the kit, it is more pliable than regular jute

Here is the card I made from the Kit for the SPS blog hop on Saturday December 1st.

This is the December kit  " Wonderland fun  "   I LOVE IT!!!
