Halloween Banner by Pam Bray


 
Hi it is Pam today with Couture Creations....I love Halloween, love all the fun decorations and every year I just add a few more to my collection....so today I would love to share with you this easy and fun banner made with Couture Creations Rectangle and Scallop Rectangle Nesting Dies along with the Exotic Embossing Folder.

 
 I started by cutting 3 fun pattern papers using the Scallop Rectangles Nesting Die.
 
 
 I used the Rectangle Nesting Die to cut the journal blocks from the pattern paper that I had selected.

 
 I also cut chipboard and distress paper that was slightly larger than the Scallop Rectangle Nesting Die, once I had all my pieces cut
 
 
Place the distress paper on the chipboard using Couture Creations Double Sided Tape, do all 3 sets of chipboard and distress paper.

 
I ran the 3 chipboard/distress paper covered pieces through my die cut machine using the Exotic Embossing Folder.
 
 
Distress each of these with your Couture Creation Sanding Block

 
I layered the die cut pieces that I  had previously cut out layering them together with Couture Creations Foam Mounting Tape.

 
 Here is a closer look at each of the individual pieces as layered them together.

 
 the next.....
 
 
 and the last one.
 

String them together with twine, tie some pretty ribbon around the twine. I hope you try your hand at using your Couture Creations Nesting Dies and make something fun this Holiday season. Hugs Pammejo
