SUMMER BANNER USING FOILED PAPER

Hi everyone! I'm so happy to share with you today my first project for a new design team that I am on!!

The projects I'll be sharing with you over the next year is using an amazing product that I was just recently introduced to. FOILED PAPER. I've been having a ton of fun learning how to use this and can't wait to share with all of you.

Today's project is a fun Summer banner. I picked some of the fun and rich colors to create it.

Step 1: Pick out a floral pattern (or other shape), a wreath pattern, and a banner pattern you'd like to using dies, cricut or silhouette software.

Step 2: Pick the foiled paper and cardstock colors you want to use.

Step 3: Start cutting your wreath pattern from cardstock. I used two different shades of green for mine.

Step 4: Cut out your floral pattern. I used a pattern from the Silhouette store that already had four sizes. I cut the foiled paper several times to get the different sizes in different colors.

Step 5: Glue your foiled paper flowers together. I used nuvo deluxe adhesive liquid glue around the centers of the flowers to adhere them together.

Step 6: Once all your flowers are adhered together. Using your liquid glue adhere one flower bunch to each wreath you assembled. I have three wreath's all together.

Step 7: Using your liquid glue adhere the wreath's to each other.

This is what it should look like (depending on the shape you made the wreath into. I went in a rainbow shape but you can do straight to ).

Step 8: Cut your banner from cardstock and then back it with foiled paper color of choice. I used a banner from the Cricut store. I searched summer banner and this is the one that came up.

Step 9: Once your banner is assembled adhere it to the bottom of your wreath's.

Step 10: Flip over your assembled banner and tape your ribbon to the back as shown. I also cut a large strip to cover the backside to help keep the wreath sturdy. Unfortunately the picture didn't come out.
