Best Banner Day

What a fun day everyone had at Renee’s Anniversary Crop at the Store! We had a nice Italian lunch and cake and Chocolates by Cara for dessert! Renee played games and gave away prizes, so much fun! It did start snowing around 3:00, it was only sticking to the cars not the road thankfully! I stopped by Heather’s old apartment one last time on the way home and did the final walk through with her. After that I came home and Taylor was asleep on the couch so I decided that I should take a nap too! It’s amazing how much a little snooze refreshes you! Around 7:30 my friend Jim came by and we hung out, watched TV and chatted. Today is day two of the Crop, more fun to be had! ๐Ÿ˜€

I have a nice quick card to share with you today! On a piece of Neenah Solar White 80lb I used my ruler and pencil to draw some diagonal lines and inch apart. To do my stamping I used theย banner from the Concord & 9th Best Banners Photopolymer Stamp Set and I stamped it in Lawn Fawn Peacock, Sugarplum, Freshly Cut Grass and Sunflower Ink. I used the Concord & 9th Best Banners Dies to cut out a piece of Lemon Sorbet and Black and adhered them to the card and each other with Multi-Purpose Spray Adhesive, ever so slightly offsetting the black. My greeting is also from the Best Banners Set and is stamped in Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink. I adhered the panel to a card base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and added a few Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins. Super simple and very easy to duplicate! Who wouldn’t want to get that card in the mail?! I hope that you like today’s simple card! Thank you for visiting and have a simple Sunday! ๐Ÿ™‚
