Fabric Friday

Welcome to another installment of Fabric Friday!  This JOY banner whipped together pretty fast for me thanks to the help of the Perfect Pennants Bigz L Die.  I cut six rectangles of the Candy Cane Designer Series Fabric and three rectangles of Fabric Adhesive larger than the pennant shape.  With the Fabric Adhesive I fused two of pieces of fabric together and repeated that with the remaining four pieces.  Once I had my three fused rectangles I ran them through the Big Shot to cut the pennant shapes.
To string my pennants together I stitched a long strip of Twill Tape across the top of the pieces.  The JOY letters were cut from Red Glimmer Paper and the Serif Alphabet Bigz Dies.  Just a few buttons, snowflakes, and rhinestones to finish off the banner and I was done!  It's the perfect size for embellishing a mirror or maybe a wreath.

  2. Your banner is gorgeous! That Candy Cane Lane Paper was my favourite last year and I'm still hoarding some. I like how it matches with the red flimmer paper. Thanks for sharing!
