Well, it is not very common in my place, but nowadays more and more parties are going on. So I decided to make something between Halloween and Fall decorations and created a banner.
I wanted to make something more classical, so I used mostly papers and the fabric.
I didn't want to look it dramatic, so I added bows and feathers.
I cut out some trims from the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® textured ribbons as well as die cut the leaved from Canvas Ribbons using Spellbinders dies.
It was such an easy way to add the bows from the ribbon so I couldn't resist it.
To fix my ribbon trims and fabric leaves I used Dodz™ by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®, and to adhere the papers it was so easy to use - MyStik® Permanent Strips.
Happy crafting and thank you for joining me today.

This is the banner that I created for today's hop. I've got a video for you showing how I colored the canvas flags from my Pennant Set using our new Pigment Powders as well as how to create the little denim flowers with the ruffly background.
I've also got a photo tutorial below to show you how I made the Girlie Grunge ruffle using my organza ribbon from our new Texture Ribbons pack with the scallop edge ribbon from my Denim Ribbons pack.
I sewed my banner and flag pieces together before I added any embellishments. I cut a piece of the scallop denim from the Denim Ribbons pack to the same length as the banner. I cut a piece of organza ribbon from the Texture Ribbons pack that was twice as long as the banner.
I added a strip of Crafty Power Tape (about 1/4 inch from the bottom edge) the entire length of the organza ribbon.
I placed a string along the center of the organza then folded the ribbon over and adhered the edges so it created a channel for the string.
I then used the string to gather the organza until it was the same length as the denim ribbon.
I added Crafty Power Tape to the back of the denim ribbon.
I removed the backing from the Crafty Power tape then adhered the organza to the back of the denim ribbon.
I used the new Home and Hobby Premium Double Sided Tape 1/2" Permanent on the back of the organza because it is a little more heavy duty than the Crafty Power Tape.
Once the denim/organza trim was adhered to the banner I used a heat gun to slightly melt the organza and make it look more ruffled.
Hello my peeps! Today I've got a new #QuickCraftTips video for you on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® blog. This is a new video for my #donnasgarden flower technique series. Below I've got a few close ups of the layout that the flower was made for.
Before I get started I wanted to mention that my new products from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L are NOW AVAILABLE on the website!!! You can check them out here: Donna Salazar with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®
I used my new canvas Pennant Set, Lace Ribbons, Texture Ribbons, Canvas Ribbons and Pigment Powder.
In the photo above you can see a close up of the dot pattern that I created using my Pigment Powder and E-Z Dots® Permanent Runner from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®
I used my Mix'd Media Inx CHOX from Clearsnap® The Makers of Colorbox® to stamp the title, Ink the edges of the word strips, the circles and also ink the rolled edges of the background paper.
Hello my peeps! Today I have a video tutorial for you on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® Blog. I am showing you how I made these organza flowers that are attached to sticks that my grandson gathered with me on one of our many walks.
I'll show you how I made the center flower with my Bitty Blossoms and Carnation Creations dies from Spellbinders as well as how to create the organza flower. Just click below
In the photo below you can see how the flowers are attached to actual sticks, that the base is wrapped with lace and a couple other extra details that I added in, like the small organza flower and the die cut canvas leaf.
