Hello and good morning
Today we have Samra hosting for us at City Crafter
Samra has set us a challenge to use a banner on our cards or project and here's the lovely inspiration photo
We are also joined this week by Kara Lynne of Kara Lynne Cards who is Guesting for us having won challenge week 256
Do click the link and go visit her blog ... she is very talented and her work is so inspiring
Here's what I came up with
I cut the banner from some DP - imitating the one from the inspiration photo and used foam dots to pop it up on a paint covered BG which was a left over from another project
This card went to my friend who is still critically ill in hospital ... so much so that her mother's surgery has been cancelled ... she needs to be with her daughter - I'll be there later today too
As always my fellow DT have some more inspiration for you up on the City Crafter Blog ... hop on over and take a look. We are offering a GD spot to this week's winner too so go on get your banners out!
Wishing you a beautiful day

My thoughts are with you, Ros. So sad when a friend is suffering. Your card is so beautiful--love the layers & that neat banner!
Gorgeous! Love those beautiful soft colours and a great composition too!
Gorgeous Ros! Love the newsprint banner, such a great contrast against the pastel background! That textured metallic paper you used for the sentiment is just wonderful, really grabbed my eye! hugs :)
Light, airy, beautiful...so soft and pretty!! I have a fondness for banners! I hope your friend recovers soon!!
Thinking about you - and your friend. I hope she will soon be much better... and her mother, too. Your card is gorgeous!
Very sweet!!!
Sorry to hear that your friend is not well, Ros! My thoughts and prayers go out to her! Your card is so lovely with beautiful design and color!
Ros, I am so sorry to hear of your friend. Your card is very comforting and beautiful. I love the banners and silver die cut across the painted panel. So glad you had that panel left over because it's perfect!
i always love the soft colors on your cards! Cute with the banner!
Beautiful! I love the watercolored and splattered BG!
Hello dear! I am thinking of you a lot; you are on my mind and in my thoughts. Hope things are slightly getting better in the way to recovery. Your card is a stunner and I am sure your friend will love it. That stitched border die is a fab way to add a subtle touch and your banner is breathtaking. Love it!
XXXXX
Beautiful and light, just perfect. I love that banner!
Simply fabulous! The soft tone looks so pretty!
So pretty - that vintage style bunting is gorgeous, especially with your colour scheme. Hugs for you and your friend.
Oh my, this is gorgeous!!! Love that you used colors and banner style from the photo :)
This is so pretty I had to pop and say - bravo! Lovely background, touch of glitter... Just perfect design, too, Ros!

Another gorgeous card...Ros, you are making some fab cards!
So pretty Ros! Love the ink splattered background and the fun banner!
Your little banner stands out beautifully on the soft background Ros. I do hope there is some improvement for your friend...we've had a week too with hubby's dad breaking a hip and having a part replacement and his mum had her gall bladder out yesterday - both seem to be doing well.
Your hand cut banner is gorgeous Ros. I like the effect you've gotten with the different sizes and the wordy DP. So beautifully designed over all.
