Simply Sunday Challenge @ Getting Cricky

AHHHHHHHHHhhh Ok ok.. I’m soo late!  Ya know how life just gets in the way!  I actually created the card yesterday but I’m just posting now!  Gosh.. thank goodness it wasn’t my week to do the DT post! hehehe  

Ok so the Simply Sunday challenge over at  GETTING CRICKY was  a Banner and Pennant challenge.. Seriously this was very challenging. I have seen some amazing banners and pennants our DT has done and omgosh the entries are just amazing!! I’m so reluctant to show mine!  Just keep in mind this is my first attempt at making anything with banners or pennants!!    OK so here it is….

yikes..went to living room to get the camera to take picture then upload.. but then got side tracked and started to rearrange the furniture in the living room! LOL that took about 30 mins! Oy I tell ya! I’m soo ADD. 

So finally here is my card:

DSC_0004

The stamp set I used for the banner is from PINK PERSIMMONS: Banner (small).  Its too cute comes with different banner stamps plus sayings to fit into the banner with two birds.  Finally used it after a year?  Hmm thank goodness I won this set!   The paper is from Kaisercraft Lush collection 6x6 pad.  Pearls are from Annabelle Stamps.

I also created this card using the Sketch from ANNABELLE Bling Sketch challenge #038.

    Hi Kathy! Thanks for the comments on my blog. We are neighbors! I live in Round Rock and come to S.A. all the time to see my parents. I used to shop at Scrapbook Heaven ALL the time when Carrie owned it. I love Victoria, but just don't make it over there as much.
