' Bling '

Our sponsor this week is 'Tickled pink stamps'

Here is my very first Halloween Banner

I hope you like it :o)





Oh my word this was hard to photograph in one go so I have created a collage for you to view it at a glance :o)

I have used Xcut triangle dies to create the banners and to cut the bearly mine freebie halloween papers, then I punched holes in the top of the triangles for the ribbon to go through

First 3 triangle banners

all the letters were printed on my computer using a free font (can't remember what site i got it from tho' sorry :o(  ) I have then coloured the inside with promarkers and cut them out to create circular frames


Last 2 banners

This fabulous Vampire image is called Lestat and he is awesome to colour, I have again used promarkers, then cut him out and attached to an oval frame which has been liquid pearled for some Bling effect!

Close up of the image
