A Banner Day: Fun & Fabulous Banner Inspiration by Laura De La Rosa
Hello Crafters!
Our office is buzzing with excitement over our new paper lines, staples and cling stamps! We can't wait for you to get your hands on these fabulous new products! I am always so ecstatic when the new crafts start rolling in. You crafters never cease to impress us with your imaginations! We're really enjoying the stunning cards that are being created for our "Inspired By Love" contest this week. Don't forget to enter your submission on our Facebook Fan Page for your chance to win this week's big prize which we will announce on the blog this Friday!
Today we are featuring a gorgeous banner designed by the amazing Laura De La Rosa. This banner was created using our Hallowe'en in Wonderland collection and it's overflowing with gorgeous detail. Sure, Halloween was a several months ago but that doesn't mean you can't create something stunning with this dazzling collection. Purple is one of my all-time favorite colors for home decor. There is so much that can be created using Hallowe'en in Wonderland that doesn't have to be specific to Halloween itself. At the same time, it's always good to get a head start on next year's party planning! So have a look at this adorable banner and let the ideas flow!
"So I created this AWESOME Halloween {BOO} banner! This inspiration came from Christie Bryant Who is also on the Graphic 45 Design Team. She made this beautiful Banner using Graphic 45's Christmas Past Deluxe Edition Paper Collection. So with this in mind I took the challenge and created a Halloweeen banner using Graphic 45's Hallowe'en in Wonderland Paper Collection. Thanks Christie for this Fun & Awesome idea!" -Laura De La Rosa

Thanks so much for posting ideas for projects in the off season. Here in Nebraska, there is far more crafting time in the Winter than any other time of the year. It's always nice to get a head start on projects.
