j.o.y.

Hi there! I'm looking forward to a fun filled Friday ~ how about you? Today I have a shabby holiday banner to share featuring pretty papers from the Pion Design Days of Winter collection:
I was going for a shabby vibe and the subtle papers worked perfectly for this banner:
I used a variety of dies including Die-namics, Tim Holtz Sizzix and I even pulled out circular punches ;)


I have a few more in the making! Thanks so much for visiting! I hope you have a great weekend!
Be Sweet ;)

Pion products used:
Days of Winter ~ Christmas flower ~ PD5103 back
Days of Winter ~ Winter birds ~ PD5106 front

    Beautiful banner! I see burlap, which I love using, but I'm wondering what you used behind the stars. Is it fibers or just regular thread! It gives it a whimsy feel.
