Rainbow Banners ~ Double D Challenge

Double D Challenge has a really sweet challenge starting today.  Can you guess what the theme is?

Yes, it's "Banners"!  You're so smart!  teehee.... banners and buntings like the ones pictured on the mood board are so cheerful and fun.  

Here's my take on the mood board:

I knew I wanted a lot of white space so the colorful banners and rainbow sentiment would be the star of the show.


I used Elizabeth Craft Designs Fitted Fishtails to cut the small banner and Diagonal Stitched Fishhtails for the long banners.  The sentiment is from Impression Obsession called aptly enough, "Smile".  I stamped the sentiment using my MISTI, by adding Distress Oxide Inks in Worn Lipstick, Spiced Marmalade, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers and Wilted Violet to each letter.  I embossed the background panel using a Creative Expressions Embossing Folder.

I hope you'll stop by Double D Challenges to see more inspiration from my talented team mates and play along.

Here's what you could win when you join in on the fun:

Thanks for stopping by!
