Bunnies & Blossoms Banner Hop Day 2



Welcome to the Bunnies and Blossoms Banner Hop for Special Needs Children Day 2! If you missed yesterday, please hop over to my BFF the Cardmonkey and see yesterday's line-up.

30+fantastic papercrafters have come together to create Spring-themed banners.We will then donate these banners to Ellen (CardMonkey), who works as Admissions Coordinator at Pediatric Specialty Care (PSC), www.pediatricspecialty.com.
PSC is a long-term care facility for specialneeds children who are medically-fragile and/or technologically-dependent. Thebabies, children and youths at PSC range in age from birth to 21, and areadmitted from all over the country.

Some are infants, born prematurely and beforetheir lungs have had a chance to mature. Others have serious birth defects,illnesses or injuries from accidents that cause them to need tender loving carein a home-like environment -- many for their lifetimes.

Our banners are meant to cheer the youngpatients, their families, and the staff at PSC. Here is the banner that I made and will be sending to Ellen to decorate a child's room:










The cute bunnies are cut from Create-A-Critter at 5". All the bunny papers are Recollections. The scalloped pennants are from a Spellbinders Die. The pennant paper is from a Mambi pack. The ribbon is standard Wal-mart.


Has all this hopping made you hungry?
How about a lil snack?

Never thought to put buttons on. There are no rules when crafting. Go for it and u did. Wonderful shape. Getting harder to choose a favourite now.

Beckie: I like how you used the scalloped pennants. My daughter is always using buttons, but we've never used them for cheeks (thanks for the tip).

Happy to participate with you in the hop. :)
