I am co-chair of Hadley's school's PTA hospitality committee now- what does that mean? I get to make cute banners like this!
please disregard the view beyond!
we also filled those
bags I stamped & will have them all ready to go for the first day of school for the staff...
Here's a couple of close-ups (minus the background!). I used PTI aqua mist for the banner base, creative memories red (diecut with cricut & embossed with PTI letters palte). The pencils are Cosmo Cricket (from the boyfriend- thansk
Sav for reminding me I had this paper!). The 'ruler' paper is Cosmo Cricket material girl.
Some
May Arts 3/16" grosgrain/stripes to hang it on & machine stitching around the pennants with letters.
In other news of things that 'rule'- Hadley lost her first tooth! She pulled that bugger out on her own-probably a few days early!
(she is her mama's daughter!!) She looks so grown up with her sassy hair & missing tooth!
I'll add this to Wee Memories
'back to school' challlenge:
As well as the
ribbon carousel challenge to use 2 or more 'spooled' items- thread counts! :D
Thanks so much for stopping by- I'd love to hear what you think!
This is aodrable! Love the pencil topper and the ruler "divider" banner. And your little sweetie pie...CUTE as a button :)

ReplyDeleteas for the tooth--oh! Freaks me out! When I was teaching, I would cover my eyes when the kids would bring me their teeth. I don't know why--anything with teeth (brushing them, commercials with toothpaste, pulling teeth) FREAK me out! But congrats to Hadley either way:)
Great banner! Love the embossing. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I had no idea I won until I saw your comment. :)
