Beautiful Banners

One of the perks of being a designer for myStampBOX is getting to design with brand new stamp sets before they even get released!  So today I get to give you a little tutorial AND a sneak peek into one of the newest stamp sets to come.

Today I’m going to teach you how to make a cute little banner to include on your next layout or card.

Start with stamping your pennant pieces on a variety of fun patterned papers.  For my banner, I used the open scalloped pennant stamp from the new stamp set, Pennants.

Trim all the excess paper around the edges like the top piece on the left side.

Now take each piece and flip it to the back side and apply some adhesive to it at the top of each piece.  In this case, I used some Zapdots by Helmar, one of our partner companies here at myStampBOX.

Next, take a piece of string or jute in this case and apply it to the surface of the adhesive and wrap it around the string to hold it and make it appear more 3 dimensional on your project.  You may need to the trim any excess paper that shows in the front.

And lastly, apply some fun 3D adhesive to the back of each piece of your banner to pop it off of your project.  I used some fabulous black foam adhesive circles from Helmar.

And now adhere it to your project.  Here is my end result…

Make a Wish


To make my page complete, I used some more fabulous stamps sets from myStampBOX:

“make” – I used the Rough Copy Alphabet.

“a” – I used the Mini Alphabet – Small Box stamp set.

“WISH” – I used the Royal Flush alphabet set.

“birthday candles” - I used the Happy Birthday – Small Box stamp set.

“banner pieces” - I used the new set stamp set, “Pennants… soon to be released!

So make sure you keep your eyes on the myStampBOX store for this fabulous new release and try making a fun banner to add to your next project!

Happy stampin’!
