It's all about a wedding here in the Fisher household. My oldest will be getting married next weekend and I knew these banner files from Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbon would come in handy. I used the Simple Banners Shapes Cutting File and enlarged the short banners until it measured 2" in width to make my banners. I had a bunch of political junk mail from all the candidates running recently and used them for my base as they were a lightweight chipboard. I used Mono Adhesive Permanent to adhere the polka dot paper to the junk mail and then Xtreme Adhesive to adhere that to the burlap.
After cutting the burlap, I adhered pieces of a paper lace doily to the top of the banner pieces with Mono Adhesive Dots, then ric rac & jute bows with Xtreme Adhesive. Letters were cut with my Cricut using Plantin Schoolbook cartridge and adhered with Mono Adhesive Dots . (I thought that was an appropriate font since Kassy is a teacher Ü) I just taped the banner pieces to a string of jute so that they can be removed later and added to a scrapbook page.
The banner was then tied to 2 pieces of dowel that I cut to fit the basket. Be sure to watch my blog for another project using PPPR's banner file for another part of the wedding.
