Spring 2011 ~ Stuck On U Sketches

Good morning everyone!!  It's Friday and that means it's time to reveal another great sketch over at Stuck On U Sketches... This weeks sketch is by Liz Qualman and if you like banners you're going to love this one...
  Here it is...
As you can see I changed it up just a bit.. I went with a bigger banner... so I could put some large letters on it...  Take my word, the older you get you will appreciate the larger letters... lol  The photo is of little GD Savannah taken on May 22nd here at our place..
Here are a few close ups....
Here is a Silk flower with a paper flower layered on top  Paper flower is a Prima, but not for sure about the silk flower.. Added a button with twine for the center...  You can also see part of the MS Eyelet punched border and the Prima Say It In Crystals..

Here you can see some more of the MS Eyelet Lace Borders, the MS Doily Lace Trim Deep Edge punched piece, another button with twine, Prima Say It In Crystals, some jewels, photo corners and my layered circles...


And finally, here are my banners which I made out of the SU Scalloped Square Punch which I folded in half over some black twine..  Added the letters, bows, and butterfly from MS Butterfly Punch...

This layout also qualifies for a few challenges out there...
Alphabet Challenge ~ H for Half Dozen...  (My little banner flags)
Crafty Creations Challenge ~ Let it Shine... (I added stickles to both butterflies)
Crop Stop ~ Summer Inspiration
