Hey, everyone! Roree here with another Make It! Monday project. Today I am going to show you how to create a lovely canvas banner for mom this Mother’s Day.
A couple of weeks ago, I attended my first Scrapbook Expo event in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I had an absolute blast! There were so many friendly faces, informative workshops, creative croppers, and vendors selling the latest and greatest in paper crafting supplies. One of the items I picked up while I was there was some darling stitched canvas pennants by Linnie Blooms. I just adore them! I also picked up the super-cute Happy SN@P! Pack by Simple Stories, so I paired the two together to create a banner for my mom for Mother’s Day.
To create this banner, first get your supplies together. You will need: stitched canvas pennants, patterned paper, a hole punch, eyelets, an eyelet setter, ribbon, adhesive, die cuts, stickers, rhinestones, and a brad.
To cut a triangle to fit inside the stitched pennant, cut your patterned paper the size of your widest and longest inner dimensions of the triangle, leaving space for a small border around the edges so you won’t cover the stitching. Place the panel over the triangle and mark the bottom center.
Trim from the bottom center outward to each top corner to create a triangle shape.
Adhere your paper triangles to the center of each of the stitched pennants.
Punch a hole at each of the top corners with a hole punch.
Set eyelets in each of the punched holes to reinforce the holes.
Thread the pennants with ribbon and tie a bow at each end.
All that is left is to decorate your pennants!
I hope you enjoyed today’s Make It! Monday project. Thanks so much for stopping by!
