It's been a busy week around here, with 3 days of birthday celebrating so far and the big 13 year old birthday bash still to come tomorrow night.
Phew. I'm tired just thinking about it all.
Last week though I finished up a custom name banner. It was for a baby-to-be, Cristiano. The banner was to serve as a decoration at the baby shower this past weekend and then be hung in his nursery. I used the nursery bedding as my inspiration. The bedding is lovely, shabby chic sophisticated with toile, dots, ruffles and lots of texture. I tried to bring all of those elements into the design of the banner. Judging by the overwhelming positive thank you note I got from the recipient, I guess I was successful :-).
