Fall Gatherings Banner Tutorial

Good morning! Michele here with a fall banner to share today!  I used canvas pennants  and gussied them up to match my decor.  I have the finished banner hanging above my fireplace in my living room.

I have a tutorial below to show you some of the steps I took in creating this piece.

When I think of fall, I think of pumpkins, so I knew this would be my focal point of the banners. I cut them on my die cut machine in various patterns of orange.

Since I love dimension in my projects, I seem to always, turn to my stash of Crafty Foam Tape! 

I placed them on the various layers of the pumpkin. The bottom layers were adhered using E-Z Squares®.

Oooooohhhhh…..aaaahhhhhhh……dimension! 😉

In my world, pumpkins always seem to need a few leaves and maybe even a flower.  So I pulled out my 3D Foam Creative Sheets.

I grabbed several dies…..

…and cut enough leaves and flowers to embellish all 3 pumpkins.  I forgot to photograph the next step, but it is easy enough to explain.  I poured embossing powder over my leaves and flowers, and then heat set it.

I added stars down the center of each pumpkin.  I sprinkled it with a fine glitter.

There! Now you can see my embossed leaves and flower! I love the bumpy texture! So fun!

I used ribbon across each pennant and tied them together with additional ribbon.  I added a few sequins here and there using Dodz Adhesive Dots Medium, and gems to each flower.  Here’s one more look at my finished project!

I hope I have inspired you today! Thanks so much for stopping by!
