Challenge Yourself and Share Your Pages

This month's technique challenge is based on the banner step by step tutorials. Banners were everywhere at the latest scrapbooking and hobby tradeshow. Manufacturers are making banner stickers, rub-on's, chipboard stickers, and punch outs. This week, I have two ways for your to make your own banners for your next scrapbook page. So give banners a try on your next layout. You can purchase any banner products or use one of these two techniques to make your own: Pennant Style Banners or Scalloped Punches Banners. Then, send in a digital photo of your layout to share you page with About.com Scrapbooking readers. Be sure to read "Submitting Pages to About.com Scrapbooking" so that you have all the details. I can't wait to see your pages!
