"USA" Banner for Exploring Cricut Challenge

Good morning and happy Monday!

Today marks the start of a new challenge at Exploring Cricut.
We are using our Cricut machines to create a card, layout or project celebrating the 4th of July or Canada Day and must include a flag. 

I needed a banner for some home decor so I thought this would make a great challenge project.

Banner: Pretty Pennants banner 2 @ 6" both layers.
Font: Old West Cartridge cut at 5" including the shadow feature.
Flags: Enjoy the Seasons Imagine Cartridge cut at 4" using the layer feature.

I added some buttons and twine, white sheer ribbon and ran the layers through my Cuttlebug, foam tape for added dimension. All paper is from Recollections.




I really hope you will take some time to visit Exploring Cricut and see all of the projects the Design Team created for this challenge. And of course...create a project and enter.
