"Happy Birthday" Banner!

Hello again! Im on a roll this week!! 2 blog posts down! woo hoo!
lol

Last night I did a last minute project for a colleague at work. She had her 40th birthday 2 days ago (which i MISSED! gosh, I'm such a horrible friend!!)

Anyhow, I was up until 1am trying to put this together. I wanted to do something other than my traditional card. So this is what I came up with!! Let me know what you think!? Also, her favorite colors are pink and brown. So I used those colors as my starting point!
I hung it in her office, so she would see it when she got in :)



The owl is cut at 5 inches from the Create a Critter Cartridge (my all time favorite!)

The flower shapes are from accent essentials at 4 1/2 inches and 4 inches for the smaller layer. 



The letters are from the Cricut Cartridge Robots. (I can't remember what the size was!)

I used brown sheer ribbon to piece all the pieces together (I punched the holes with my crop a dile)



The rose is from the cricut flower shoppe cartridge (Another new favorite!). The butterfly is a recollections butterfly from Michaels :)


This is the first banner I have ever done and it was SOOOOOO much fun to see it come together! this is the first project that came out exactly how I pictured it in my head! lol I feel accomplished! :)
