Tombow Banner

Did you know that this is Tombow’s 100th year birthday? For CHA in January each of the design team members were challenged to create a birthday project of some kind. I created this banner using Fancy Pants’ Hopscotch line and lots of Tombow adhesives.

To cut the banner pieces (Spellbinders Lacey Pennants) I cut each one first with cereal and cracker boxes and then of the designer paper and adhered them together using a Mono Glue Stick.

The letters are grunge chipboard letters that I painted black and then applied Mono Aqua Liquid Glue to the letters and sprinkled glitter on. I adhered the letters to the bottom of the pennant with Mono Multi Liquid Glue.

The top decorative piece to the banner was cut to fit the banner and then on one end I punched it using EK Success Open Scallop Border Punch. The scallop piece was adhered using Dot Adhesive Stamp Runner. I like using dot adhesive especially when adding adhesive to small areas as you just rub away the excess.

The Sizzix Paper Rosettes were adhered using Power Tabs. I used one fourth of a Power Tab to add each of the buttons.

I wove black ribbon through the top pennant loops and added tied bows with on fourth Power Tab.
