Banner Days

Well, I meant to get this up here long ago, but getting the proper lighting seemed impossible.
I waited for the brightest time of day, but the sun wouldn't cooperate at all. 

Many of these are blurry, and I apologize for that, but I hope you can get a good idea of where I was going with this one.

I made this--

Can't see it?

How about now?

Or this?

Nah.  See what I mean about photos of these things?

Let's try seeing each one individually--(LOTS of Photos alert..)

 

 

I wanted to show you this one first,, because you can see here the leaves that separate each panel piece. I just pasted punched leaves together on a gold thread.  Super easy, but a nice added detail.

 

Oh, and note the "cheerful" diecut.  Totally pieced together from some Christmas word dies (Paper Smooches). 

 

 This one is one of my faves. That teensy leaf on the tree just works for me.

 Love this one, too.  Love the red jacquard with the grey and gold.

 

So, you can see (at least most of) it now. 

The overall look, again--

 

I was pretty happy with this one.  I hope it will hold up in storage, so I can use it again next year.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
All Best--
