Ethan's Banner

I made this Banner for my daughter to give to a friend of theirs a while ago for the birth of their son Ethan but never got a proper photo of it hanging on the wall - well here it is now in Ethan's bedroom.

The Banner was made mostly with my Cricut imagine and the Nursery tails cartridge and Lori's garden cartridge.

Make it Girly or Anything Goes With a Whoopsi Daisy Image

This is my first post for a while as i haven't really been in the right frame of mind for crafting, i don't know why but every time i sit at my desk there is nothing there so i suppose i have lost my mojo!  I made this card just over a week ago for my spot as a Guest Designer on Whoopsi Daisy and it was the last thing i made..  I am hoping for my little crafting gene will return this week as i am not sure what to do with myself while waiting for it to return.  Anyway hope you can pop over to the challenge at   Whoopsi Daisy - Make it Girly or anything goes with a Whoopsi Daisy Image.

I used a Whoopsi Daisy image number 349 you can get it HERE along with many other fabulous digi images.

I am not sure of the name of the backing paper as it came from stash and i have had it ages.
The wooden  buttons and cord are from Stash
The fence die is Memory box
