Birthday Die Cut Banner

Happy Wonderful Wednesday crafty friends!

Melinda here with you. I hope your mid-week/hump day is going fantastic so far! Today I am sharing a fun little birthday banner I created with some beautiful cottage cutz dies! Here's what I created.

I made this pretty little mini birthday banner to celebrate a co-worker's birthday. 

I started by cutting out my scalloped ovals from white cardstock. I then used my double stitched ovals to cut out a size smaller some patterned paper. 

I then glued the patterned paper to my scalloped bases for mats.

I then cut out all of my various die cuts n white cardstock and then colored my various pieces in in a variety of shades of pink. Here I am coloring in my Happy letters.

The following are closeups of each little panel I created.

For this one I used my Happy Birthday Shadow die along with the pretty filigree bow die.

For this one I used the Folk Art Butterfly and the Folk Art Mixed flowers. For the butterfly, I cut out two of them and layered them onto each other and then lifted the top layer to give the illusion of the butterfly in a side view.

For this one, I used the swirl cupcake die cut.

For this panel, I used the Folk Art Mixed Flowers die set. I actually created two panels like this one. 

Here is a view of the little banner hanging from my desk. In between each panel I added a little strng of beads and then some tulle. I strung it all on some thin white ribbon.
