Hello Everyone! It's Colleen from Col's Creative Corner and I am so happy to be sharing a banner with you today. I am the "go to" person whenever any one from my friends and family needs a banner. I like having that distinction, I love that feeling I get when I share my paper crafts with others. Today's banner keeps with L.B.'s masculine theme. My best friend needed a special banner for her nephew who is turning 21 next week. He is in a rock and roll band with her son, so it was easy to decide on a theme for him. I have been thinking about how many carts I have and how I rarely use my older carts, so I challenged myself to use an older cart for this banner. I only used 3 carts on this banner, Blackletter, Indie Art and Cricut Alphabet for the stars.

I used the two guitars from Indie Art. I really dig the flying V. I cut 4 of them and did 2 in silver and 2 in gold.

All the lettering and the pennants are from Blackletter.

The skull is also from Indie Art
This really is a great cart for guys!

Are you wondering what the design in the picture above is? I bet you are! That is my Cricut Version of their band logo. Her son and nephew love the really heavy stuff. I have finally decided that I am too old for rock and roll, because they call their band Napalm Party and well, I just don't get it. LOL! The cuts are from Indie Art, I colored the flame with copics.
Below are pictures of the banner close up spelling Happy 21st Birthday Brandon!

All the papers are from Die Cut With A View. The banner is made with the DCWV Blackboard Stack. The shadows for the letters are also from the Blackboard Stack. All the guitars, stars and the skull are made with DCWV Glitzy Glitter Stack. Who says you can't use glitter on a guy project? Usually my hubby says that and even he agreed that Glitzy Glitter Papers were cool.
Thank you for stopping by the Cricut FANatics blog today!
Happy Crafting!

ReplyDeleteColleen, another home run! Love the banner! You did a great job - wow, all those details. You made me laugh with your comment about "Napalm Party." Sounds cool, but, if it makes you feel better - I don't get it either!
