Welcome to my contribution to theIt's All About Me Swap
hosted by Natasha Burns
I've been admiring the many
different banners throughout blogland,
and with each passing Holiday,
I've wished that I had one of my own ...
Thanks to Natasha's Swap,I was able to find the courage
to make one for myself ...
I decided to go small, so I made thisMini Halloween Banner using playing cards ...
Scrapbook paper ...assorted ribbons ...
M.S. stickers 'n glitter ...
I cut circles from the tan tissuepaper of a Vintage dress pattern
& glued them beneath the stickers ...
some Hallween bling finished things off ...
It was really easy-peasy
and I love the end result!
How does a little Give~Away sound?Good?
How about two little Give~Aways?
Ahhh... even better!
This past Summer I was involved
in a Pay-It-Forward exchange ...
I'm going to wander off of the path and
do things a bit different than most of the
PIF's that are going around blogland ...
I thought that doing a Give~Away during
Natasha's Swap would be a fun way
to pass some kindness along ...
They're pretty much the same ...
Some New ... Some Vintage/Thrift ...
Both have pages from old books ...
1899 Reader ~ 1916 Shorthand
Jelly Belly Cotton Candy Lip Gloss
Wooden Clothespin
Vintage Playing Cards
assorted M.E. Stickers
Bath & Body Works Shower Gel

Pearl, I've been thinking about a banner as well. I've seen all kinds and while I am not a crafter bur rather a quilter, knitter, corcheter and cloth art doll maker I want a banner. Perhaps I'd better give some priority to making myself one. Love your Halloween theme.
Speaking of Halloween - I've taken a liking to your jumpin'-jack witch and IF SHE CAME TO MY HOUSE [fingers crossed] she just might be the feature piece for MY NEW BANNER
So happy Natasha's has provided a great way to introduce everyone to everyone's blogs.
I've just become one of your FOLLOWERS
What a great banner! Halloween is such fun, don't you agree. By the way - love the ferrets in costumes!!!
Sue E.

Thanks for your sweet comments on my blog! I love your mini Halloween banner! I would love to be included in your draw :) I see that you have a Ferret? I had one too and he was the BEST pet I ever had!

Love your Halloween banner. So cute and creative. I had so much fun making Halloween cards this year and looks like you had lots of fun with your banner. Love your blog.
Hi!!
What an adorable banner.
Your giveaway is so generous.

You know I think that is the nicest Halloween banner I have seen.... it captures Halloween and is cute at the same time!!!! Rachael:)
I love your banner! A mini banner is a good way to begin but now that you know you can do it, go for it and make a full sized one! Yours is awesome!
Cheers,
Maggie
How sweet of you to stop by and leave a comment on my post about Natashas giveaway challenge!!! Your banner is so adorable. I must go now and check out the rest of your posts. It is nice meeting you and stop by anytime.
Sharon
p..s I love the name of your blog. It sounds so welcoming and comfy on this cold, rainy night in Georgia
Pearl, your banner is just lovely and very festive! Nice job!
Oh, I'm just loving all the ferret stuff on your blog . . . I wanted a ferret at one time, but hubby said no! Now we've got parrots and a ferret wouldn't be a good idea! LOL!
And, wow! I love tootsie rolls! My veterinary clinic always has them in a bowl on the counter and I must say (rather sheepishly) that I fill up every time I go! LOL! I love your Tootsie Roll button . . . way cool!
Thanks for sharing and for visiting my blog and leaving your kind comments! Sorry I missed your give-away, but it looks lovely and the winners will be very pleased!
Blessings,
Teresa
Your banner turned out so cute! What a great idea to create it using playing cards. Your blog is beautiful, glad I found you!
