Using the Citrus Bliss 12x12 paper pad, I began cutting out my title "Lucky" using my Silhouette Cameo. I added machine stitching to each letter with my sewing machine and intentionally left long loose threads hanging to add to the feel of the project. I backed each letter with dimensional foam squares, and then adhered them onto pre-cut burlap banner pieces.
I chose pieces from the Citrus Bliss ephemera pack, chipboard stickers, foam shapes, and wood veneer shapes to embellish my banner. I also added frayed flowers from the Bella Rouge collection to couple of my pieces.
I strung my banner with gold thread and clipped it onto a frame using clothespins. I cut two four leaf clovers with my Silhouette, embellished with tulle and tucked them in behind my banner to finish off the look. I hope this has inspired you to create more Saint Patrick's Day decor for you home this season!
Awesome project Gina!! The banner looks great over the chicken wire and with the wood frame!!
