BANNERMANIA: banner for all seasons. Season 1 of 5: Halloween!!!

 

Bannermania Season 1: Halloween!

The spooks will love this beauty! It's cuter than Casper and won't scare the little ones!  It's actually quite simple! Now you all know I'm koo-koo crazy for banners. This idea struck me like a bolt of lightning right out of a witch's broom in the middle of the night such that I had to get up and write it all down!!! I hate when that happens! I have always loved the Chalkboard Banner Simply created Kit BUT, I wanted to make it a banner for all seasons.  This is the first in a series of 5 posts to highlight this fab kit featuring the Mingle All The Way stamp set. This Halloween version also highlights the Fall Fest stamp set with coordinating (and bundled!!! stamp and framelits to save you 15%) and Fall Fun Framelits dies. These are all in the Stampin' Up 2014 Holiday Catalog which you should have by now (if not, email me cogbill22@yahoo.com)!

Tips:
Assemble pompoms per kit directions in seconds!
Cut white circles and the Bermuda and black circles the next size up. Stamp on white circles and color in the words from the mingle all the way ( I used markers directly) 
Ribbons are in 6 inch strips, 2 per section
Stencil letters on black pieces using versamark and heat emboss with iridescent ice. Chalk was cute, but it isn't durable for all seasons! 
Cut out ghosts and pumpkins from white and tangelo twist paper and stamp eyes on in black, clip on with clothespins
Adhere white stamped circles to bermuda and black with stampin' dimensionals
String on jute twine included in kit!
