Happy Spring Banner

Happy Spring Banner!

This past weekend was Daylight Savings Time where we did the “Spring Ahead” thing.  Even though we lost an hour of sleep, I haven’t felt like I’ve lost any sleep over it…yet.  Sure is dark outside when I get up in the mornings, though!

To celebrate the onset of Spring I was inspired by Close To My Heart’s “Banner in a Jar” post.

They used a Mason Jar to contain all the elements of a Springtimme Banner into an easy, put-together project kit.  So cute, right?

For my Banner, I removed a couple of the embellishments and did some Cricut cuts instead.  I wanted to make the kit a little jazzier and economical for an upcoming class in my home.
