My First Banner for my nephew

Good morning! Today I am sharing the banner I created for my nephew. It was my first time making a banner and since it was for a boy I left it pretty simple!

The base for the banner was using a pack from Close to My Heart. Each piece measures 6"x7".

I added blue eyelets and lace at the top of the banner. I used the Stampin' Up die to create the rosettes in the middle. I used 2 sheets that measured 2"x 11" to create each of the rosettes. The circle in the middle was using my circle sizzix's die. I used the biggest one that is 2 1/2" round. The letters were cut out using my cricut. I cut the letter twice the base was using the shadow button. The top layer I used blue stickles around the edge.

Altered Letters- Using Graphic45 Little Darlings

Sorry its been awhile since I have posted anything. My Sister had my nephew a couple of weeks a go, he is so tiny :).  He was 6lbs 9oz they named him Parker. I made a few gifts to put in the paper cake I made, I meant to share these earlier. Here are the altered letters I made:

I bought these letters from Michals to alter. For the "P" I used Graphic45 paper Little Darlings and a chipboard piece. The flower and leaf is from Wild Orichid Crafts.

The trim is from MB's Treasurista and the flowers is from Michaels.

Baby Shower Paper Cake

Hope everyone had a great day! I finally finished all my baby shower gifts:) Here is the main gift that will be the center piece at my sister's babyshower.

I created a paper cake from scratch. It took a long time to figure out the right measurements! LOL! The bottom is 6" x 10", the middle is 8"x 6" and the top is 6"x 6". I used heavy weight chipboard and attched it all using E-6000. The papers are from Graphic45's Little Darlings collection.

The top of the cake I made baby booties using a templet I found online. I used blue pearl trim from MB's Treasurista and the brads are from my stash. The cute little bear I found on my trip to St. Jacobs in southern Ontario. It's a small town known for its flea markets, antique stores and crafty shops.

This a picture of the back of the cake. I created three drawers one for each section. In each drawer I created a gift. The top has altered letters, the middle has an altered canvas and the bottom has a mini album. The trims are from MB's Treasurista and SaCrafters.

All the drawers were painted in an off white colour to match the paper.

Hope you like it! Love to know what you think:)

Thanks for looking!
Have a great weekend!
