Grateful Banner


Hey Everyone!
I am grateful this time of year because of the cooler weather and the wonderful smells that go along with the holiday season. Today I wanted to share a banner that I made. This banner is currently hanging in the arch way between my living room and dining room.

I used the new cricut cartridge Ribbons & Rosettes.
Here are my impressions of the cartridge
  • This cartridge is going to use a lot of trial and error.
  • For the rosettes that I used, I cut 4 shapes and adhered them together. But each shape has different amount of score lines so you might need more or less pieces to make you rosette the right shape
  • The score lines are useless. If you have a gypsy, hide them
  • After figuring out how many pieces I needed it was very simple to use.












Products used:
Pattern Paper: Recolletions Autumn Paper Pack
Cardstock: Stampin' Up 
Cricut Cartridges - Mickey Font, Elegant Edges

  6. The scorelines are worthless? Aw man, I was hoping they would actually help. This is a great project. I haven't played with my cartridge yet, maybe soon!
