Hi Authentique Fans!!! Are you ready to start celebrating Mom's Day..of course every day should be a celebration of mom....don't you think!


What better way to celebrate but to create a MOM'S Banner! It is super easy to create!


Begin by cutting 3 pockets to use as banner along with a scallop circle. Cut 3 of the circles in half.


Adhere scallop circles to the back edge of pocket pieces.


Cut strips of paper from Party pattern paper; layer together. Punch 2 scallop border pieces from pattern paper. Adhere one to top and the other behind strip of paper. Add to top of pocket banner.


Cut two scallop circles; adhere together. Add to center of  pocket banner.


Cover back of pocket banners with black card stock. (HINT:  To space banner equally apart - punch small circles from scrap paper; flip banner over. Adhere small punch circles to back of banner to hold banner spacing placement together. Turn back over.)
